In the garden…
Imani found Jamari on the bench opposite from the giant cage with birds. The cage is covered with a cloth because the temperature drops during the night and it gets chilly. Also, it allows the birds to sleep without disturbance.
Jamari turned to the sound of pebbles that moved under Imani's feet.
He wanted to ask her how she found him, but then he remembered that all of them have a lens that allows them to track each other, so he asked the next question: "Why are you here?"
"I want to talk to you."
Jamari forced himself to look away from Imani. "There is nothing left to say."
Imani's heart cracked. Is it really helpless? How can she talk to him if he is shutting her out? "Will you listen to me? Please?"
"I can't tell you what to do and it seems that you want to say something so… Say it and be done with it."
"Jamari, why are you ignoring me? How long is this going to last? I miss the time we spent together."
