As soon as Nicole picked herself up and dusted herself off, Racetrack, while shielding his eyes, noticed familiarities about this certain clumsy female. Race stood, took off his hat and apologized again for snapping at her. For some reason he could not take his eyes off of her.
"Excuse me miss, I'se don't mean no hawm. I'se sorry for starin', but u'se look...kinda familiar...Have we met?" Racetrack stammered.
Nicole could do nothing but gasp, blush and run. Racetrack called after her telling her he didn't mean to offend her. She knew he hadn't, but what could she say?
With her heart all a flutter, Nicole ran as fast as she could, not paying attention to the places she had been passing and the direction she was going. She ended up in the center of the square by a statue of some bald man she had never seen in her short life. Sitting at the base of the statue to catch her breath, she heard shouts of young boys floating through the air.
"Uh-Oh. I'm back where I started. What do I do, what do I do?" Nicole said to herself. She couldn't help but be scared of them finding her before she found Jack. She decided to stay where she was until the boys went away. I'll just stay here and eventually they will go in the opposite direction, she thought to her self.
She was dead wrong.
