FADE IN.


Act 1


INT.SITTING ROOM - DAY


KAJI checks her toy box.


KAJI (V.O.): I've so many stuff toys. I don't destroy any of them.


Checking one after another.


KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I prefer the new ones though, as I haven't dominate them long enough.


Seeing a tennis ball.


KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I like to play with it too.


Kaji takes out a big brown stuff toy and then a tennis ball.


KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): Which one should I play with?


Act 2


INT. SITTING ROOM - CONTINUOUS


FLASHBACK


INT. SITTING ROOM - NIGHT

Kaji brings a big brown stuff toy to PETER who throws it up in the air.


KAJI (V.O.): I know where it'll fall.


Aiming at it, Kaji catches it with her mouth. Then she begins to bite aggressively.


INT SITTING ROOM - NIGHT


Kaji brings a tennis ball to Peter who throws it up in the air.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I can follow its trajectory.


Hitting the tennis ball with her nose, the ball bounces off forcefully at the sofa.


PETER: Well done!

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It requires some skill and judgment. It's fun to play.


END FLASHBACK


Kaji eyes at the tennis ball.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Yes, I've calculated about my next move.


Kaji brings the ball to Peter who is resting on a massage chair with a phone in his hand.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I bring the ball to you because I treat you as the alpha of our pack. And you'd play with me.


Peter throws the ball from his position casually.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): You haven't done your calculation. How can I hit it back with my nose when you throw the ball that way?

PETER: Pick up the ball.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): No, you aren't engaged during my playtime. I'm angry.


Kaji walks away, leaving her toys on the floor.


Act 3


INT. SITTING ROOM - DAY


As the main door opens, Kaji sees Peter returning.


KAJI (V.O.): I won't get up to greet him home.


Peter walks straight to the room corridor.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I won't bother.


Calculating.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): What if Peter has brought me something?


Kaji sees Peter winking at her from the corridor.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Got your cue. I'm not stupid!


Getting up quickly and firmly, Kaji follows Peter to the sleeping room.


FADE OUT.

THE END
