Mr. Nandom: Mr. Williams, please pray on our food.
Mr. Williams: (said a simple prayer)
Alero: Shilah, where are your two little brothers?
Shilah: Oh! Those trouble makers, I even forgot about them. My mum locked them in their room and put on Disney Junior for them.
Alero: With nothing to eat?
Shilah: My mum has gone to give them Cheerios cereal. It's nice not hearing their tiny voices screaming and disturbing my peace for a change.
Alero: What? I even wish that I have little brothers screaming around and disturbing my peace. My house is always too quiet and I'm the only child, always feeling lonely.
Shilah: Don't worry about that, you don't even know if your parents are planning to deliver another child soon. As for now, let's enjoy our meal and later we'll go to the parlour and watch some movies.
Alero: That's why you are my best friend, you're always so positive.
Alero and Shilah: (Smile and hug passionately)
(Lights out)
