Alice refused the old manās offer of blood for tea. The rabbit looked disappointed, as it jumped from the table and hopped out of the cottage. Alice pushed her chair aside.
‘Now what was that rabbit late for?’ wondered Alice.
She followed the rabbit down a tiny footpath. The forest grew darker and the grassy undergrowth turned into thorny bushes. Alice sacrificed her arms to protect her eyes from being pierced. Tripping over an unseen root, she stumbled upon another clearing. Her blood froze, witnessing the scene before her.
āNow would be a good time to wake up,ā thought Alice.

A gigantic CGI generated rabbit hopped at a tremendous speed. In the last second before a certain head-on collision, the āAliceā actress jumped aside.
‘Now what was that rabbit late for?’ wondered Alice.
The ensuing onscreen dialogues were lost on Justin. From the corner of his eyes he observed multiple colours flicker on Sarahās face, making the moment more surreal. She reached for popcorn from the bag between them. He stuck his hand in, just as she was about to retract hers. The briefest of touches resulted. As if he were on a rollercoaster, Justinās stomach made a double flip.
