Three days later, Mia could be seen standing in front of the familiar restaurant while looking around, searching for the person she was supposed to meet in the crowd of people. Because she had arrived fifteen minutes early than the supposed meeting time, she had been waiting since then while sometimes looking around, thinking that she might see Sheila in the crowd as the meeting time slowly close in.

She had been doing that for a while now as the time for the meeting has long passed for a whole five minutes yet, she had not seen the familiar figure among the crowd walking toward her at all.
