It was last seen on the dining table. Next to where Trang was sitting. Last Sunday.
I can't help but suspect Trang. It's in keeping with my theory that She Be Actin' Like She Some Kinda 'Ho Who Turned. She had motive. She had opportunity: last seen packing up her things in that area, while I was fetching (and I mean fetching) her a glass of water. Besides, she's an opportunistic little miss. So I'm calling it early: Trang stole them. Maybe she did it as she thrust the "homework" papers at me, like one of those gypsy kids in Rome who use a newspaper to distract you while they pickpocket you.
I will start working on a questioning approach for our next meeting. What's the word when the police interview the witness? Actually I think it's interview. Like "I need to interview the suspect". No, I think it's a more specialised word. Interrogate! That's it! I will interrogate Trang on her next visit: shake her down and see what falls out.

she wants you to invent scenarios, so maybe you could raise one with her next time:
"why don't we talk about a prostitute / English teacher who steals cufflinks!"
