She was in her hotel room when suddenly the earth started to shake. She ran down to the reception, where people, tourists for the most part, were beginning to gather. They all went out into the street. She had never been so frightened.
The next day, she phoned her friend Aiko, the girl she had come to meet. They met at the corner of the street. They hardly recognised each other because they hadn’t met since they were young. Eventually, Sue told her about the earthquake. But Aiko told Sue she hadn’t been at all afraid. Earthquakes were common in Japan, and most houses were built to resist them. When the earth started shaking, she had already gone to bed, and there she stayed until the next day.
