Domenico looks at Laura, who was completely shocked, not understanding anything of the whole discussion.

Domenico translates everything to her, then looks at her in silence, waiting for her decision.

Laura: (crying) My princess, please calm down!Come to mommy, please!

Maya: No, I don't want to! I want to see Massimo! I want Massimo! It's important !

Why do you not understand? I have to give him something important.

Before Laura or Domenico can say anything, Maya manages to take advantage of a few moments of inattention of the bodyguard, and in a few fractions of a second she manages to unlock the car door, jumping from the arms of the bodyguard and reaching the road.

Everyone in the car is shocked by Maya's gesture.

After a few seconds of astonishment, Laura begins to cry desperately shouting at Maya, and Domenico, hastily give orders in Italian to the driver and the bodyguard. Who are getting out of the car in a hurry.

Domenico: Laura, Laura please calm down! I've already sent bodyguards after her. Everything will be alright.

Laura, who is in the middle of a panic attack, can do nothing but cry and shout Maya's name!

Domenico: Laura, breathe! Try to calm down.
You can't help Maya while you're in this state.

Laura: (screaming) My baby! My baby

Domenico offers Laura a bottle of water and helps her drink because she is shaking all over.

After a few tens of seconds of silence
interrupted only by the driver who returned to the car.

Laura: Domenico, let's go. I need to find my baby! I have to find her!

Domenico: Laura please wait ! You can't go! You're weak! It's better to stay in the car.

Laura: I think you're kidding! No way !

Domenico: Laura please! You will come with us by car with the driver. I'm going to go with the bodyguards to look after Maya. I'll let you know when I find out.

Laura: I don't even think about it! My child is there alone, on the highway at night and you ask me to stay in the car ?!

I'm coming with you and you can't stop me!

Domenico: All right, let's go!

Domenico and Laura get out of the car in search of Maya.

Shortly after they got out of the car, it started to rain!

To the despair of Laura who shouts Maya's name with all her might.

After running a few tens of meters, Laura loses her balance, and is about to fall.

Fortunately, Domenico is next to her and manages to catch her in time.

Domenico: Laura, Laura, are you okay?

Laura: I'm fine, I need to find Maya!

Domenico: Laura, please, you're weak! Get in the car and follow us with the driver.

Laura: No, no, no ...

I have to find Maya, I have to find her before she get hurt or something happened with her !

The conversation between Domenico and Laura is interrupted by Domenico's phone ringing.

Laura: Answer, Domenico, answer, maybe they found Maya!

Meanwhile, Maya, after she managed to open the car door and jump out of the bodyguard's arms, runs as fast as she can away from the car.

Maya: I have to see Massimo, I can't leave until I give him a present to help him not forget me.
