After school- at the ice cream shop
Mia Xiumin
Yumi, do you know what our project is about??
Mia Xiumin
It's on European history!!! Ugh! I hate history....I guess it is your favourite.
Yumi Xu
Actually I have made all the arrangements for the project, because I know that is the only lesson that is left to make for the second term and as my prediction they will add the marks of our project to the semester.
Mia Xiumin
(stares at Yumi with her mouth wide open)
Mia Xiumin
You knew everything about this?? Are you kidding me???
Yumi Xu
It's obvious dummy. Since that is the only lesson left for the second term.
Mia Xiumin
Oh well good for you....I don't think I would make it alive. I would rather die than explaining about the telephone and mobile phone and the hamburgers with cheese and the statue of liberty...
Yumi Xu
Um...statue of liberty is in America not in Europe you dummy.
Mia Xiumin
Well now you can clearly see how good I am!
Yumi Xu
(stare at the clock on the mantelpiece)
Yumi Xu
Oh MY GOD!!! It's 3.45??? I am so dead!!
Mia Xiumin
Make sure you send me a text when you get home.!!
Yumi Xu
(Running along the street and encounter a fancy shop)
Yumi Xu
(thinking) I wonder what's inside this shop? looks fancy!
The shop looked cute and attractive with its lavender aroma and sweet fancy stuff hanging on the wall. Different kinds of ornaments were stored on the shelves. Yumi walked in and looked around. Nobody was there. Not even the owner of the shop.
Yumi suddenly spot a dream catcher with ravishing colours.
Yumi Xu
(turn around quickly)
Yumi Xu
(see a woman in 50's standing at the door step)
Shop keeper- Don't worry, it's my shop. Saw you admiring the dream-catchers. Hayumi Xiu by the way.
Mrs. Xiu
Hello and how can I help you little girl??
Yumi Xu
Well...I just passed by and thought of having a look. The shop is cute and sweet. I like it.
Mrs. Xiu

A car horn interrupts their conversation. A huge man steps out of a jeep that crashed into the parking slot.
Man: "How many times do i have to tell you to pay my money??"
Mrs. Xiu
