"Are you ok?"

he repeated again, as I was lost in his smile. I didnt snap out of it until Carina rushed over to me and pulled me away from his arm and said,

"Get your hands off her Jerk! you just cost us the Game!"

" Are you ok Ori?" Carina asked me.

"Yes, I'm ok, I'm just glad I didnt roll my ankle. Sorry we lost the game."

Carina*

"It's ok, we can just buy the tickets later for the night party"

I turned towards the stranger who caught me.

"I'm sorry for stepping on your feet, I didn't see you behind me. I was too focused on the game. Thanks for helping me keep balance though" I said.

"You're welcome. I should be the one sorry, I made you both lost the game. But you're Oriana? That's a nice name, I'm...

"KENJI!!!" shouted Scotty as he ran towards where we were standing.

"There you are, my mom was wondering where you were and if you were going to make it."

"I just got here," Kenji said. "I was going to come find you, but I saw everyone around here so I thought I'll check it out first before calling you, but I see you're here & you won the tickets?"

"Yes I did, Thanks to you for tripping Oriana! Haha," Scotty joked.

"Wait, You know Scotty? Did ya'll planned this?" Carina yelled while looking at Scotty! "Oriana could of rolled her ankle!"

"Im Scotty's cousin & this wasn't planned" Kenji said. "It truly was an accident & I'm sorry you both lost. Here to prove it You both can have the tickets."

"Forget it!" Carina said as she pulled me away.

"Hmm, so that's Carina the girl you always talk about huh?" asked Kenji.

"Sure is, she's definitely mean and a talker, but the more she talks and is mean, the more I wanna tease her and make her mine" said Scotty. "Just wait til she gets a taste of me, she will never forget me"

*a moment of silence, for Kenji was still looking at Carina and I as we walked away*

"What about you?" asked Scotty. "I see you're looking at Oriana, are you feeling anything? haha"

"She's definitely cute with that round face of hers and all, but you know why I came here for the new year festival." Kenji said.

"Sure do, just let me know when that chick texts you so I can be there when y'all meet up in person" said Scotty.

"She actually just texted me and said 11:30AM and at her food booth called Delightful delish" Kenji said.

"let's go meet her then." Scotty said. " What's her name again?"

"Grace" said Kenji.
