Anna looks around the class.
' Weird, Shane is absent today.'
' He could just be lazy to come to school.
...but what if he got into an accident because of me ?
Maybe I should go to see him.'
***
The soup is boiling.
' Could I be overthinking things ?' thought Anna, ' ..wait. I don't know his house.'
' Good thing I followed him yesterday.' thought Anna proud of herself even though she was caught halfway.
***
After asking here and there, finally Anna arrives at a house where she believes is Shane's house.
Anna tidies her hair and checks to see if her dress is neat.
Anna breathes in and out.
Anna presses the bell.
" A-Are you there, Mr. Shane ?" asked Anna timidly.
' Hmm ? Not answering ?'
Anna tightens her grip on the bottle of soup.
Anna rings the bell for a few times.
' He could be going out.'
Anna squats down.
' I'll just wait here.'
***
Midnight.
Anna fell asleep, backing the door.
The door creaks.
" Tch. Isn't she leaving ?" pouted Shane standing behind the door.
Anna's unconscious body falls on the floor after the door opened.
Shane carries Anna inside.
Shane puts Anna on his bed carefully.
Shane picks up the bottle of soup.
Shane turns the cap counter-clockwise.
' I haven't had lunch and dinner because of her blocking my door.' thought Shane pouring the soup to a bowl.
" Why can't I believe in them ?"
" Have you ever believed in anyone ?"
Shane looks at the pile of paper on his desk.
Shane exhales.
Shane turns to look at Anna.
Shane walks towards her.
' Reminds me of her.'
He raises her head.
