Character Study (II)

Clumsy Miki trips and tumble by a cafe nearby, she notices a small run down cafe. She decided to buy a cup of coffee with two sugar cubes and a creamer before she leaves to go somewhere far away from home. The television was on, there was a picture of a missing girl on the screen. Miki froze and she drops the cup of coffee. She couldn't believe it, it was her friend. Still feeling shocked, Miki walks out the cafe and sits on a bus stop bench. "It's been four years," Miki murmurs.  Four years has passed since Miki and her group of friends that she can hardly remember graduated from high school. The memories of the friend on the television screen come across her mind. Tears rushed down, although Miki wasn't sure if they were tears from her missing friend or the scratch on her knee when she tumbled down the sidewalk. With watery eyes, Miki decides to go back home to grab some more bandaids for her first aid kit. Soon as she arrives to the door steps, a letter was placed under the "welcome" mat. Miki picks it up and opens the letter. It said, "Meet at Pacific Crest Trail, 9:00 sharp." Without any concern, she lets go of the door handle and began to hitch hike to Pacific Crest.
