In the middle of the great courtyard, Susana begins to question herself in her thoughts:

- "It's so different today... He didn't even squeeze Josh's hand as usual, is he really the killer that everyone thinks? I guess I'm imagining things..."

In a few minutes, the boy approaches quickly but delicately. Taking Susan's hand, he whispers:

- "Do you want to join me on a walk tonight? There's a magnificent place you don't know yet."

Completely embarrassed and a little frightened, she runs off to the corner of the yard.

- "I hope she says yes...", he whisper to himself, turns away, and returns to the living room.

Em meio ao grandioso pátio, Susana começa a se questionar em seus pensamentos:

- "Está tão diferente hoje... Ele nem sequer apertou a mão de Josh como de costume. Será que ele é mesmo o assassino que todos pensam? Acho que eu estou imaginando coisas..."

Em alguns minutos, o rapaz se aproxima de forma rápida, mas delicada. Pegando na mão de Susana, ele sussura:

-"Quer me acompanhar em uma caminhada hoje a noite? Tem um lugar magnífico que você ainda não conhece."

Completamente envergonhada e um pouco assustada, ela sai correndo para o canto do pátio.

-"Espero que ela diga sim...", sussurrando para si mesmo, dá as costas e volta para a sala.
