It's a sunny Friday afternoon, It's very good weather to take a stroll. "That's the end of school guys, see you next term"
'Bye Mr Al". They all chorus. "(IN DISGUST) It's all hot this afternoon"
"No, Drew, the weather isn't that hot" "Are you blind or what, don't you feel the heat (grunts) you always think different, let's go guys". She looks at Rita. "Did i do anything wrong?". "No, you're fine, He's always like that". Maya sighs, since she came to the school, Drew has always been that student who "loves' teasing you or mocking or even calling you crazy.Maya even found a nickname for him "Doofus". "That is Doofus for you". Rita laughs. "you still call him that name, i thought he told you not to call him Doofus" "Well, i won't stop calling him Doofus until he stops calling me "Butt head". Rita laughs. Maya goes on her scooter and zooms off. "Laugh all you want". "You two are a match". 'I can hear youuu!"
They have gotten to the place where they need to turn to their houses but instead of turning Maya goes straight immediately. "Maya,what are you doing? We are supposed to turn to our different ways, remember?". Maya nods. "Yeah". She continues going straight. Rita follows her. "then why the hell are you going straight?" "I am going to the temple". "Temple why". "You remember the story Mr.Al told us today about the last crystal and its existence" "Yeah what happened to it?" " when i think about it, i remember my Granny telling me about the last crystal and where it is as of current" "Yeah, so? (gasps) wait, are you trying to tell me that your Granny has the crystal". Maya quickly covers Rita's mouth. "shhh, you don't need to shout so that everyone could hear" "What do you expect me to do then, stay frozen?" "hmm, that will work yeah seeing that you talk too much" 'But seriously, are you sure that your Granny has it?" "I don't know,but i know she told me where it was, it's just that my little brain couldn't take it then and i forgot" "poor you, so what are you gonna do now? Ask your granny?" "My granny isn't around, i have tried telling my dad to bring Granny here but NO, nothing can pass through his big head" "Well,don't let him hear you say that' "What, its not as if i am lying, he even knows, sometimes i say it in front of him" "Well, you've got some guts then, i can't say that in front of my father". "I don't think i need Granny to tell me where the crystal is, i think i will figure it out myself" "So?", Rita looks at Maya with expectant eyes. "So what?" "Are we still...?" "Yeah" "Oh no' 'Oh yes" "Have you forgotten our parents will be so worried?" Maya turns back to face Rita. 'Look Rita, i don't want to put you in trouble so you can just head back home, okay? I will meet you tomorrow at your house" "What about you? Your mom would be looking for you if you're not back home the time you should" "Don't worry, i will be fine, i know how to deal with my mom""No, i can't leave you alone" "Wait , Rita?'. Rita's palms are trembling and her knees are wobbly. "Rita, are you afraid?" "NO!" "okay okay, you didn't need to shout that hard, well then, but why are you breathing so hard and fast?" "Am i?" "Well, i am not the only one here who can hear your heart beat". They keep quiet and Rita is actually afraid. THUMP THUMP THUMP. "That's the sound of your heart, even a blind man could tell that you're nervous. Look,don't worry Rita,we will go in there and if we don't find anything, we come out, as simple as that" "Okay, if you say so' "(smirks) Scared cat." "I am not a scared cat" "yes you are. Kitty kitty'. They chase each other around.
