LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
Are you sure we’re on the right path?
I’m following the coordinates, Kath.
Well, it looks like the middle of nowhere.
By my calculations, we’re almost there.
Maybe the map was for something else, George.
Anything’s possible, but let’s keep going. We’re not far from the location.
The whole thing is strange, how we found the room.
Or blessed? Maybe we’ll discover a treasure.
Yeah sure. How long have we been walking?
Come on, it hasn’t been that long.
You kidding me? What time is it?
Just after midnight.
Thought so. We’ve been walking a couple of hours.
It’s just another 30 yards or so.
Says the football player. Like I know distances in yards!
Take my hand, Kath. It’s not far, I promise.
What was that?
What do ya mean?
That!! Don’t you hear it?
The owl?
Freaky, don’t you think?
Just sounds of the night. Five more yards. Come on.
Ohhh.
Now what?
Look George!
I’ll be... No wonder the map said Love At First Sight.
