The next day, Mrs. Reynolds is cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast. Alex is dressed in a new outfit and hanging out with her on the kitchen counter. Suddenly, a determined knock on the door. She picks up Alex and puts her in one of the cupboards and tells her to be quiet.
She opens the door to find two men in suits....
"Are you men police officers?"
"No, Ma'am. We're Immigration."
"Can I help you?"
"We're looking for Alexandra Kutchinovosky". Her visa has been revoked and she is to be deported."
"She took off when she got your letter. We haven't heard from her since. We filed a missing persons report with the police".
"Can we come in and just look around. Just so we can put in our report that we did."
"Of course. Please come in. I just made coffee. Would you like some?"
The shorter agent declined. The taller agent said "Please. And if it's no trouble, a couple of slices of dry toast?"
They all went into the kitchen. While she was getting coffee and putting two slices of bread in the toaster, the shorter agent opened one of the kitchen drawers.
"Do you really think she's hiding in there? She's five foot five. I don't think she would fit in a drawer....."
"Yes, Ma'am. Sorry. We'll be leaving now. Here's my card. Call if you hear from her."
