115: An Afternoon with the Others

– Are you sure you want to see the film? – asks Olivia.
It's Friday afternoon. Sandra, Olivia and Erika have arranged to go for a walk after class. They don't have much time left, barely fifteen days until the end of the course. Summer is coming.
– I have it at my house, if you want to see it, let's go! – says Erika.
– Okay – says Olivia. – I haven't seen it, but I've heard about it.
– Me too, in fact, they told me it has a secret – says Sandra.
– What secret? – asks Olivia.
– I don't know Oli, they didn't tell me. I think if they tell you, they'll reveal the whole film to you and there would be no point in watching it – answers Sandra. – Don't you think so?
– Oh yes, maybe – says Olivia. – Come on then let's go! I don't want to be left with the intrigue.
– Fine, let's go to my house. Right now there's no one. – Erika says. – By the way, I've already seen it.
– What? You've already seen it and you're not saying anything? Why are you keeping it to yourself? – Olivia asks.
– I've seen it but I'm not going to tell you anything – Erika says. – I don't mind watching it again, really.
Sandra laughs. She loves those afternoons. The three girls finally head to Erika's house. When they reach the entrance, they go up to her flat. Erika opens the door.
– Should we make popcorn? – Erika asks.
– Yes! – Olivia and Sandra answer at the same time.
– Ok, wait while I get it out and you make it, I'm going to go find the film and prepare the DVD.
The three girls go into the kitchen. Erika takes out the packets of popcorn and Sandra and Olivia get to work. Meanwhile, she looks for the film. She remembers that it was on the shelf, above the television. She finds it and prepares everything.
After about ten minutes, the three bags of popcorn in their respective bowls are ready. The movie is ready to start. Erika takes three fresh Coca-Colas out of the fridge.
“Ready?” she asks.
“Whenever you want,” Sandra answers.
“Yes,” says Olivia.
The movie starts. As the scenes go by, Erika notices how her friends become more and more tense. Sometimes a scene appears that makes them jump.
