"Excuse me?"
I say facing the girl.
"I'm sorry, I just moved here."
She says while searching her bag,
"Could you tell me where this address is?"
She hands me a note.
I look at the note,
Which seems to be ripped out of a notebook,
And take it from her hand.
"This is the house next to mine,
I didn't know someone moved there."
I think to myself.
"I can walk you there, it's on my way."
I tell her while handing the note back.
"Thank you, I'm really grateful"
The girl says.
I walked in the front,
She walked a few steps back.
Silence.
"What's your name?"
I ask the girl.
"Emiko. Ike Emiko, what's your name?"
She slowly answers.
"I'm Sora"
I answer her.
