MAKOTO: Your dad?!

HOLLY: Shh! You have to hidr, my dad will kill me if he found a boy sneaking in, especially in my ROOM.

MAKOTO: Should I hide under the bed?

HOLLY: Do NOT hide under the bed, if he finds you, there's no escape. You're basically trapping yourself in there.

Holly's dad's name is Harrison Henderson.

HARRISON: Holly, you home? Just came back from the gym.

HOLLY: Yeah dad, I'm in my room.

MAKOTO: Why did you say that??

HOLLY: I don't know! I was stressed.

HARRISON: Alright, I'll be up there in a minute.

Across Holly's room was her little sister's room. Makoto snuck into there.

HOLLY: What are you doing?!

MAKOTO: I don't know! I'm not trying to get caught! Should I go out the window?

Holly's sister's room's window was facing the front yard.

HOLLY: If you go out the window, my dad will see you since all the windows downstairs are open.

MAKOTO: There's a killer on the loose! Why would the windows be open!?

HOLLY: No not the windows, I mean the blinds and curtains. Anyways, Follow me.

On the other side of the hallway was a bathroom. Holly quickly ran over there.

MAKOTO: What?! Alright...

Makoto followed Holly. Holly opened a window big enough for Makoto to escape.

HOLLY: Go go, I'll take to you later.

Makoto climbed up sneaked out the window.

MAKOTO: See ya.

HOLLY: Bye.

Makoto and Holly waved to each other, then Makoto slowly jumped down. To the backyard. He dipped outta there and headed home.

MAKOTO: I was in her room..., I gotta tell Joey.

Makoto stopped running, and called Joey. Joey answered.

MAKOTO: Joey, I'm in.

JOEY: You didn't call me again last night.

Makoto was confused, not for long though.

MAKOTO: Oooh, my bad. I forgot.

JOEY: It's alright I guess, is Holly alright?

Makoto continued on walking while on the phone.

MAKOTO: Yeah, and guess what. She let me in her house! And her room!

JOEY: Holly showed you her room! So you hit?!

There was a silence.

JOEY: Alright, say Makoto, do you wanna like meet up at the park or something? Just chill.

MAKOTO: Sure, we can meet up at the park later today. How about 1?

JOEY: Why not 4?

MAKOTO: 4 is kinda late though.

JOEY: True true, but I got stuff to do from 1 to like 3:30.

MAKOTO: Fine. We'll meet at the park at 4.

JOEY: Bet.

The call ended. All was left to do was wait. Hours later, it was 3:47. Makoto got ready and was about to head to the park.

TSUGA: Makoto! Where are you going?

MAKOTO: To the park to see my friend Joey, you know him.

TSUGA: You can't go to the park! There's a killer on the loose!

MAKOTO: I gotta go! Plus, its right down the street!

Tsuga was silent. Makoto left the house, and started walking.
