“How about we go to Golden Empire Building? We can hang around there and watch a movie this afternoon," Sabrina suggested.

“Sounds good!" Bettie agreed with a beaming smile.

Now that they were done shopping, they made their way to the underground garage with their purchases.

While walking toward their vehicles, they suddenly heard the sound of a car engine starting from behind them.

Sabrina turned back, and her heart leaped into her throat. Without thinking, she pushed Bettie away and jumped out of harm's way just in time.

The car sped past them and disappeared down the underground garage.

Bettie, still shaken up, sat on the ground and exclaimed, “What the hell just happened? Was someone trying to kill us?"

Sabrina took a deep breath, stood up, and dusted herself off. “It's not an attempted murder, Bettie. It was a prank. I saw the driver in the car. It was Keilani!"

When Sabrina saw the speeding car, she caught sight of Keilani through the windshield, a ferocious look on her face.

"Hell no!" Bettie got up from the ground, albeit with difficulty, and rubbed her sore buttocks. “Does she think I'm just going to let this slide? What am I? A pushover?"

Just then, it struck Bettie that Keilani's uncle was a powerful figure. Confronted with Keilani's uncle, she did feel like a pushover.

“Are you hurt?" Sabrina asked with concern. Just now, she had reacted instinctively that she had no time to think if she had pushed her friend too hard.

Bettie shook her head. "No."

“She shouldn't have gotten away. Let's go find her."

"Okay."

The two of them followed the direction the car had gone.

“Over there." Sabrina pointed at a car not far away.

When Keilani's car had driven over, Sabrina took note of its license plate.

Just as Bettie was about to approach Keilani's car and confront Keilani, Sabrina stopped her. "Wait. Go to our car. There should be a tool or something we can use as a weapon."

Although Keilani didn't hit them, she knew they wouldn't let her off the hook. But now wasn't the time to dwell on their petty revenge.
