In a big luxurious sitting room, Treasure lies on the big gray fluffy carpet floor, aimlessly starring at the large flower shaped lamps in the ceiling. Her mind deep in thoughts, but is interrupted by a loud scream.
STACY : Ohhh my God! ( Screams holding an envelope in one hand and a paper in the other
TREASURE: ( Comes running) Hey, what is it?
STACY: (Breathes in heavily) You can't believe this!
TREASURE: ( Looking at Stacy's hands) Huh?
STACY: (Smiling) It is an invitation to the Holly's! Told you the day will be great.
TREASURE: Hmmm. I see. ( She frowns, heading back to the position she was, in the sitting room. Stacy tries to follow her)
STACY: Come on Sis. Don't tell me you're still thinking about him.
TREASURE: ( Looks at her and smiles)
STACY: ( Worriedly) You know you've been like this since yesterday night.( There's a weird silence between them for a while, and then Treasure finally speaks up).
TREASURE: It's nothing, I promise.
STACY: I have to say, I know you better than anyone else. There's definitely something more to the moods.
TREASURE: ( Smiling) There's nothing more, it's just the just the moods, normal. Besides, God knows me better than you do!
STACY: (Drawing closer to her face) Are you mocking me young lady?
TREASURE: Ah ha ha ha! Of course not.
STACY: Am not impressed!
TREASURE: I promise. Cross my heart.
STACY: You are ever promising, hmmm.
TREASURE: ( Holding her by her hand and helping her sit on the carpet) Am sorry. Actually, I haven't thought about him since. What is done is done. Mom always said that a male is a fruit. So I might have taken my first bite, though it's a bitter one.
STACY: ( Pulls her sister close to her) Oh Sis, am really sorry you're facing such, so early!
TREASURE: It's okay. Experience is the best. Besides, you're not new to it, so, I have the best mentor too ( Helps her sister up)
STACY: I'll kill you one day
TREASURE: Ah ha ha ha! That's harsh.
STACY: ( Looks at her sister passionately, and pats her hands) You deserve to be happy sis. And you will be. I promise you that.
TREASURE: We'll both be happy. We both promise hmmm? ( Smiles instantly, her little cheeks spread wide)
STACY: We promise. ( Replies with a smile. There's a little silence, a silence with peace)
TREASURE: ( Pulling her for the door) Anyway, let's get ready. Mom and Dad must have arrived already.
STACY: Let's play some music while we ready ourselves. Just to lighten up the moods a little.
TREASURE: ( Excitedly) Alright!
