She was the most flamboyant of the gang. She was always that way, even in High School. She laughed freely, was always the first to jump in the lake, or ski board down the hill. She was the first to get her drivers license, the first to marry, and the first to divorce. She never stopped thinking young and acting young and, perhaps as a result, she continued to look much younger than she was. She was a "wild child" and her friends loved her more for her outlook on life. That's why it didn't make any sense to anyone who knew her. It just didn't add up, what with her outlook and all. She had so much to look forward to to just up and disappear like that. It was crazy. There was a sense of disbelief and, following that, dread. Why would she abandon everything and vanish like that? What if something bad has happened to her? How could she just, "poof", vanish into thin air?
