"Hey, jerk! Can't you see I need some help here or are you blind?
Oh my God, Makoto, what happened?
voice trembling They... they cornered me. Hinami and her stupid gang saw me talking to a friend and decided to teach me a lesson.
takes a deep breath They grabbed my bag and spilled everything out on the ground. Then, Hinami ripped my blouse, and... and they laughed.
That's awful. Did they take anything valuable?
sniffles My phone, some money, and my diary... It's all gone. They even took my favorite pen.
We need to report this. Come on, we'll go to the police station.
nods, wiping away tears Okay, let's go. But first, can we stop by the convenience store around the corner?
Of course, anything for you. Let's go.
As they walk towards the convenience store, Makoto keeps glancing over her shoulder, making sure no one is following them
You seem nervous. Do you think they'll come after you again?
looks around cautiously I'm afraid they will. Hinami never lets things go easily.
Don't worry, we'll figure out a plan to keep you safe. And if they do come after you, we'll be ready.
quickly looks at the items on the shelves I think we should stock up on some self-defense supplies, like pepper spray and a Taser.
Good idea. Let's get that and anything else you think would help.
As Makoto and Wayzandig shop for self-defense items, they notice someone from the corner of the store watching them intently.
Who's that guy? He's been watching us.
whispers urgently I think it's one of Hinami's friends. We need to leave, now!
Let's hurry up and get to the checkout counter.
frantically grabs the self-defense items and rushes to the checkout counter Hurry, hurry!
Paid for our items quickly and walked out of the store.
breathing heavily As we walk faster down the street, I notice a car slowly following us.
What? A car? Stay close to me.
panicking It looks like Hinami's car! She's determined to catch us!
Get in the alley, quick! We can lose them there.
nods and pulls Wayzandig into a narrow alley We need to find somewhere to hide, fast!
Look over there, that dumpster might work.
quickly leads Wayzandig behind the dumpster and they hide I hope they don't find us...
Stay quiet. They should pass us by now.
whispers I can hear their car driving past the end of the alley. They're gone for now... but we need to stay hidden just in case.
Good call. Let's wait here for a bit.
whispers I think we should find a nearby hotel to stay in tonight, just to be safe.
Agreed. Let's find one quickly.
pulls out her phone and searches for nearby hotels There's one a few blocks away. Let's go!
Let's head there. We can ask the front desk about security.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Makoto and Wayzandig approach the front desk to inquire about security measures.
Excuse me, we'd like to know about the security here.
speaking urgently Yes, we need to make sure it's safe to stay here. Can you tell us about the security cameras and staff presence in the hotel?
Tell us everything you can.
the hotel clerk hesitates and then speaks quietly There are security cameras in the hallways and lobby, but they don't have anyone monitoring them 24/7.
So, the cameras might not always be watched. Anything else?
leans in closer to the clerk Are there any particular rooms that are considered safe? Maybe on a higher floor with secure doors?
That's good to know. Highest floor with secure doors, got it.
glancing around nervously We'll take a room on the highest floor with secure doors.
Alright, two rooms on the top floor it is.
quickly hands the credit card to the clerk We'll take two rooms on the highest floor with secure doors.
Two rooms, highest floor with secure doors. Thanks.
takes the key cards from the clerk We need to hurry to our rooms and pack up safely.
