FADE IN:

INT. SITTING ROOM - DAY

Dark sky. Lightnings. KAJI nervously sits alone on the sofa.

KAJI (V.O.)

Something wrong is

approaching. The air

isn't right. Lightnings

seem to charge me. I

can detect rumblings

drawing closer and

quicker.

Loud thunders.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

Here they come! Oh my

God! I wish they're

around!

END MONTAGE

KAJI (V.O.)

Where's my maid?

I don't see her round.

She must be hiding

in her room. Where

should I hide?

Kaji takes a look of dinning table.

.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

Yes, the area underneath

it is particularly safe and

secure. But...I can't

move.

Kaji notices something.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

The sofa has become

wet...Is the roof or

window leaking?

Oh, no, I'm wet too.

Kaji checks her private part.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

Oh...I hope the

wetness wouldn't

attract any lightning.

A beat.

Kaji sees the pack leader and Peter returning home. Pointing at the moistened sofa, the MAID makes a report. All eyes focuses on Kaji crossly.

KAJI (V.O.)

I plead guilty. I was

just overwhelmed by

my thundering fear.

The pack leader directs the maid to sanitize the sofa using odor eliminator.

INT. SLEEPING ROOM - MORNING

Emerging her head a little above the quilt, Kaji is in thoughts.

KAJI (V.O.)

They neither punish

nor soothe me. Life

is just normal. Perhaps

I'd have kept dry and

calm. I shouldn't be scared by the thunders!

Kaji takes a look of the pack leader.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

Anyhow, I like a normal

bright day without

lightnings and thunders,

even though my pack leader

is late in giving me food!

Pausing.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd)

Let me hang on a little

longer and good things

will come my way!

Kaji lowers her head and closes her eyes.

FADE OUT. The End
