Maria's heart sank as she sensed that something was terribly wrong. She rushed over to her friend, her mind racing with worry and concern.

As she knelt down beside Alisha, she could see the tension etched on her face. Maria tried to catch her friend's gaze, but Alisha's eyes were fixed on the ground. The air was thick with tension and Maria could feel her heart racing with fear.

"What's wrong, Alisha?" Maria asked gently, placing a hand on her friend's shoulder.

Alisha looked up, and Maria could see tears streaming down her face. The sight of her friend in distress was enough to make her heart race with concern. Maria's senses were heightened, and she could feel the tension building in the air.

"What happened, Alisha? Are you okay?" Maria asked, worry etched on her face.
