Miguel: I saw her eyes. I think she's into me.
Kamri: Oh yeah? You think so?
Cassie: I mean she's beautiful. She's rich and elegant. You can expect so much from her.
Kamri: Oh come on, Cane. You're still our beautiful & smart & charming girl in town.
Cassie: Oh really?
(They all laughed.)
Miguel: So, Cassie. How's your articles?
Cassie: Going great, Miggy. It's just...
Miguel: Your mom again am I right?
Cassie: I just don't know why she doesn't want me to "get in trouble."
Miguel: I mean, what does that even mean?
Kamri: Stop. Is that who I think it is?
(He stops and looks at a red car and a guy who is about to step out of it.)
Miguel: Nice clothes.
Cassie: Wait, I don't think that's the main event.
(A girl with black hair steps out.)
Miguel: Whoever that is, she's a hottie.
Cassie: She looks mysterious. I bet it's her first time here.
Kamri: It's not just the Montenoires after all.

LAURIDENNE'S POV (Lauren's mother)
(Lauridenne kisses Lauren's father, Lark on his cheek.)
Lauridenne: How's work?
Lark: We've decided that this business I was talking about will be brought to....
Lauridenne: Wait. Before that, how long are we gonna stay here at Wildwoods? I don't think this town will be good for Lauren. She'll be having a hard time to adjust in this environment.
Lark: Wildwoods is full of good people and here, we are well-known. Wait a little more time, Sweetie. I'm sure sprinklekins will adjust as soon as I...
(Lauren is about to enter the house.)
Lauren: Hi Mom... (slows down) The best dad. (being sarcastic) you're here. How's business?
Lauridenne: He just arrived, Lauren.
Lark: My sprinklekins. Come to me.
(He had his open arms waiting for his daughter to hug him.)
Lauridenne: Hug your father, princess.
(Lauren hugged him.)
Lark: So nice to see you.
Lauren: I'm off to bed, Mom. Dad.
Lauridenne: This early?
Lark: Where have you been recently? Have you made friends in town?
Lauren: I'm really tired, Dad. I got to rest. There's more to face tomorrow.
Lark: Okay. Have a good sleep.
(Lauren goes upstairs.)

Setting: Lauren's room, morning
