Lara is quietly sitting on the bench at the front of the Big Mall
She was waiting for her friend Kazuko since 7:00 A. M
Wondering if ever her friend would still arrive
Every weekend, they both used to meet each other at the same mall on the time of 7:00 A.M
Lara Merrit
She's not even answering my calls
She was hoping that her friend won't make that chance disappear
Lara Merrit
(*trying to call Kazuko)
Lara Merrit
(*phone's rings)
While Lara is still thinking about her friend situation
Her attention got by someone
Adamson Cruz

Adamy Cruz
Of course, I can.
Adamson Cruz
Yey! Thank you Mommy!
Lara felt the different feeling
She noticed herself felt that she already know the boy
But don't even remember any moments with it
When someone suddenly tapped her shoulders
Lara Merrit

Lara Merrit

Kazuko Sherr

Lara Merrit
(*almost to laugh)
Lara Merrit
Let's just go to your home after this shopping
Kazuko Sherr
Really? At my place, I thought we plan that we would go to your house after this
Lara Merrit
I changed my mind
Kazuko Sherr
I saw you staring at something
Lara Merrit
It's just nothing
Lara Merrit
I mean, it's a little boy
Lara Merrit
A stranger, maybe?
Lara Merrit
But something is weird after I saw him
Lara Merrit
I felt that I already know him
Kazuko Sherr

Kazuko Sherr
Okay, that's better. Let's go inside
Loud Noises

Lara Merrit
Still thinking
Lara Merrit

Ah! There's a fire!
All the attention of people inside the mall is got by the old lady
She's shouting, and she's very scared
Kazuko Sherr
Did you heard what she said?
Lara Merrit

Lara Merrit
The old lady stripped
Suddenly something is fell down so loudly that made them shocked and scared
Kazuko Sherr

Lara Merrit
Just go out first!
Suddenly, they both heard a cry
Lara Merrit

When she stopped by her very own friend Kazuko
Kazuko Sherr

So, Kazuko and the old lady successfully went outside the mall
While Lara is still inside looking for the owner of the cry
