The other day I am working all day at a house in Hingham. I get there around 8:45am and the guy shows me around. I tell him I have a couple of hours of work outside then will be moving into the basement. When you walk into someone's house for the first time you usually get the feel of who lives there, and what they are like. I got the feeling this guy was kind of strange, and like maybe he knocked his wife off and buried her in the woods. So I do my work and hardly see this guy most of the morning. Around 11 he comes out with his 9 year old daughter and the load up his Jeep and he tells me he is off to the dump, help your self to food and drink I will be back.
He comes back like 45 minutes or so later and now I am moving into the house to do work in there. Around 1 I go upstairs to work in the one bedroom that he wanted tv in. As I walk into the room his daughter is on the bed reading a book, she gets up and starts out of the room. I ask her to get her dad because I have some questions, so she heads off and the father comes in and answers my questions. The guy was basically sleeping on and off most of the day. Around 2 I go upstairs again, and ask him to bring a laptop to the basement so we can configure his router, and setup his account. He comes down to the basement, looks like he has been sleeping for a week. We finish up the computer, and show him how to work the equipment, ask if he has any questions he says no. I tell him I am done inside and will be at the side of the garage, he walks me out to the truck through the garage, says goodbye and closes the garage door.
So I pull out of the driveway and down onto the street, and do some work on the computer, then I walk up this steep hill on the side of his garage to get my ladder. I put the ladder on the truck and jump in to warm up. A Hingham cop pulls up , so I roll down the window. He starts asking me questions. did you work at 28 to day, I say yeah. Did you see a little girl in there, I say yeah. He says how old do you think she was , I say about 8-12. He asks if I saw her leave the house I say no, he says she is missing, and the guy who owns the house is calling my company looking for me. He asks me if I will be there for a few I tell him yeah I am reading the paper. He goes up the driveway. I did not realise that two other cruiser had already gone up the driveway from the other direction.
About 3 minutes goes by and the cop pulls down the driveway, and in behind me. He gets out walks up to the truck and says the guy is kind of strange huh? I said yeah he seems a little off. He then says, "The guy wants me to check your truck for his daughter." I said you f'n kidding me right. He says no the guy is serious. I said she is not in the house? He says no the guy looked everywhere and can't find her, so I tell him here is the key knock yourself out. He says I don't want to search your truck, I know she is not in there. Now my cell phone rings, and is the dispatcher, she is asking me if I am alright, and generally dancing around the issue. So I tell her I am talking to a Hingham cop at the house I am working at and ask her to hold on. Next the guy and another cop come out, and the guy is like when was the last time you saw my daughter? I said I saw her twice today, when you went to the dump, and around 1 when I asked her to get you for me. Thats it. He starts scratching his head, and walking around going this is very strange. Next a female cop radios down to the other 2 that she found the girl asleep on her bed. The guy just walks away, no #^&#^&#^&#^&ing apology or anything.
How about staying awake #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& and paying attention to your #^&#^&#^&#^&ing kid. The three cops were beside themselves, they said the guy swore up and down that he had searched every inch of his house and her room and she was not there. They find her asleep on her bed . I was pissed and wanted to kick the sheet out the pos. Talk about friggen embarrasing.
