Nicola Bulley's daughters "deflate" after asking their dad questions about their mum who has been missing for over two weeks, a friend has said.
The two girls, aged six and nine, were dropped off at school by Nicola on January 27 - and since then she has not been seen.
Emma White, who is friends with the missing mum-of-two, said the girls "need their mummy" to return home and constantly ask their dad, Paul Ansell, when she is returning.
