Four years passed...

A twelve years old boy was running to the grocery store but stopped his feet when he saw a little girl around his age was looking around like she was lost. He walked up to her.

Boy - hello, are you lost?

Girl - umm... yes.

Boy - are you here with your parents?

Girl - I'm here with my father. I got distracted because I wanted to buy some balloons.

Boy - it's okay. Don't worry. You'll find your father soon. I'll stay here with you until your father come and get you.

Girl - (smiled) thanks.

The boy stood next to the girl, swaying his arms back and forth.

Boy - so...um... I learned from my big brother that little kids like us shouldn't talk to strangers. So let's not be strangers. What is your name?

Girl - (looked at the boy and smiled) my name is Mia. What is yours?

The boy lifted up his eyebrows when he heard the girl's name.

Boy - my name is Teen. I'm 11 years old. What about you?

Mia nodded.

Mia - I'm 10.

Teen - I have a little sister named Mia too.

Mia - (smiled brightly) oh really? That's awesome.

Teen - Big brother was the one who named her when she arrived at the shelter.

Mia - arrived? (Confused)

Teen - oh sorry. I wasn't being clear. I live in an Orphanage Family Shelter.

Mia - ahh... (nodded understandably.)

Teen - (realized something) let's go to the shelter. Maybe big brother can help you find your father or he can call the police.

Mia looked at the sky and the sun was about to set.

Mia - I guess it's not a bad idea. It's getting dark soon too.

As they were heading towards the shelter, Teen was tackled from the back by someone.

Teen - Oy! Mia, what are you doing?!

A little girl was laughing so loud as she caught Teen from behind.

Mia just watched them struggles against each other. She was a little surprised by the sudden action because she too didn't see the little girl sneaking at them like that.

Teen - okay, calm down, Mia. I have someone I want you to meet.

The little girl quickly cooperated and turned her full attention to Mia.

Teen - (arm raised toward Mia.) Mia, meet Mia.

Mia 2 - (eyes widen with happiness.) what?! Your name is Mia too!?

Mia - yes. My name is Mia.

Mia 2 - (jumped up and down) wow!! Really?! You're not lying!?

Mia shook his head.

Mia 2 - yeah! Come on! (Hold onto Mia's hand) let's go tell big brother!

As Mia 2 was about to drag Mia with her, a voice shouted out at them.

-Mia!

Mia, Teen, and Mia 2 turned towards the voice and found Tul with other men with him.

Mia - (smiled happily) father!

Tul ran to his daughter and hugged her so tightly.

Tul - Where did you go? don't you ever disappear on me like that ever again!

Mia - sorry, father.

As Mia said her goodbye to Teen and Mia 2, she holds onto his father's hand and walked away with him.

Mia 2 - (waved at Mia) Bye, Sister Mia! Please come back and see us!

Mia turned back to wave at them. Then they got inside a black car that came to pick them up.

Teen and Mia 2 watched as the car began to drive away.

-what are you two doing out here?

Teen and Mia 2 jumped at the voice like they were caught red-handed. They both turned around and smiled weakly at their big brother.

Teen and Mia 2 - Hi, brother Tin.

Tin - (raised an eyebrow at them and folded his arms.) Remember the rules, no one should be out past 8.

Teen - but I was helping --

Tin - inside please. (Gestured his hand at the door.)

Teen and Mia 2 - (pouted their lips) okay. (Walked inside)

Tin followed them behind.

Tin - I'm coming to get yah! (Playfully chased them as they ran inside laughing.)

A parked car not far from the building slowly turned on its light. The back seat window began to roll down and stopped in mid-way. A person was inside and his eyes were locked at the shelter. He was Can.
