April’s disappearance followed a series of heated arguments with Marlon, primarily about her growing independence. However, the turning point came when April discovered Marlon had kept the truth about her mother Donna’s death hidden. Feeling betrayed, April stormed off, leaving a trail of heartache behind.
Christmas Morning Shock
When Marlon entered April’s room on Christmas morning, his heart sank—she was gone. Initially, villagers speculated that April might have gone to visit a friend, but Marlon sensed something was wrong. His fears intensified as hours turned into days with no sign of April.
