Where the Heart Is

The trio wander through the city. There are a few other people on the street today, most likely because it's not dark out.

ÍSJA: "Lani?"

LANI: "Hm?"

ÍSJA: "You've lived here your whole life, right?"

LANI: "As far as I know."

ÍSJA: "Have you been alone this whole time?"

Lani pauses to sideeye Ísja, who quickly gets nervous with her glaring at him.

ÍSJA: "Sorry! I just know I'd have trouble living alone here, is all!"

ÍSJA: "Even though it's such a huge city and it's daytime, there's hardly been anyone around. If we were in trouble, no one would help us. That's scary."

ÍSJA: "I guess what I'm asking is: are you gonna be safe with those guys from last night after you?"

LANI: "...I'll be fine."

The trio continue to walk.

LANI: "There used to be a lot more people living here. But when the rains got bad, for some reason, people started disappearing even more often than before. I lived with two other people until one day, I wound up alone."

The trio pause. They've exited the downtown part of the city and are standing in some grass.

LANI: "We ran a flower shop together."

Interrogation time!
