"Melanie knows that I’d pay for a taxi for her to come back to Preston and if she was with someone she would have contacted me or Jessica on their phone. 

"She has only one other friend in Blackpool and she isn’t with her either. 

"She has no reason to not come home! Imagine if this was your daughter. I can’t begin to explain the hell I'm in right now.

"I’m begging you to share this. I need to know no serious harm has come to my daughter."
