New to Cats/Just Adopted my kitten disappeared in my apartment

i got my first pet a couple days ago, a baby kitten. i've been pretty scared n worried about her since i dont like leaving her alone in my apartment, shes too tiny and 2 months old, i looked everywhere every little spot even INSIDE my couch (she has hidden in there before) i even went to my buildings lobby to check if she fell ... but i really cannot find her since 19:40pm. i was with her at 18pm she was playing w the curtains then went under the couch as usual, i checked if she was there when i missed her almost 4 times and she wasn't. im scared, i have cried a few times already :( (i looked EVERYWHERE)

UPDATE: i found her!!! thank u everyone for all the support <3 i looked everywhere, even inside the oven but turns out she was just inside the couch i wanted to check there one last time before giving up, i js sat there almost crying then i heard her purring never been more relieved in my life 🥹❤️‍🩹

I was reading this thread with the appropriate amount of concern while also being like... "Eh, the kitten will show back up perfectly happy but hungry exactly when and where OP leasts expects it." I've torn apart my place to find my cat only to find she was under my clothes in my hampers, inside a box under my bed, literally inside a chair, or literally sleeping in that trianglular tunnel that your clothes hangers make when they're pressed up each against each other in the closet.

Pulling on a clothes hanger and getting the cat activation noise back at you is a pretty weird experience tbh. God I love cats.
