A small apartment in a high-rise building. A teenage girl's bedroom. Posters of Klava Koka are hung on the walls. The girl stands in front of the mirror trying on another outfit. An oversized sweater and skinny jeans. To complete the look, the girl puts on a bright red cap.
Little Red Riding Hood: Now that's stylish! Everyone will be shocked by my outfit!
Mom peeks into the room and notices the girl getting ready.
Mom: Where are you off to all dressed up?
Little Red Riding Hood: To Klava's concert, Mom, I told you about it.
Mom: I don't quite remember, but I have a task for you.
Little Red Riding Hood: No problem, tell me.
Mom: You need to visit Grandma and bring her some pies.
Little Red Riding Hood: But that's on the other side of the city! I won't make it to the concert!
Mom: If you spend less time in front of the mirror and hurry up, you'll make it.
Little Red Riding Hood: What do I get out of it?
Mom: Half the pies are yours.
Little Red Riding Hood: Why would I want those pies? Do you know how many calories are in them? Besides, I'm on a diet. Mom, you're really crazy. I'm talking about cash.
Mom: What cash?
Little Red Riding Hood: Cash, money, you know? If it's easier for you, you can transfer it to my account by phone number.
Mom: Okay, okay. I'll transfer you some money, just go quickly. And don't talk to anyone on the way, be careful.
Little Red Riding Hood: I won't take the bus, it's rush hour. I'll call a taxi instead.
Mom: As you wish. Give Grandma my regards and tell her we miss her.
Mom leaves the room. A few minutes later, Little Red Riding Hood receives a text confirming the money transfer. Happy, she orders a taxi, puts on a red puffer jacket, Chelsea boots, puts the pies in a waist bag, and runs out to the entrance to wait for the taxi.
A grey Kia Rio pulls up. The girl gets in the car, holding the pies on her lap. The driver looks at her suspiciously and sniffs.
Wolf: Little girl, little girl, what's your name?
Little Red Riding Hood: My name is Little Red Riding Hood.
Wolf: And where are you going, Little Red Riding Hood?
Little Red Riding Hood: To Grandma's, on the other side of the city. I'm bringing her pies. I'm just worried I'll be late for the concert.
Wolf: What kind of pies are those? They smell delicious. What are they filled with? Meat or chicken?
Little Red Riding Hood: Just regular pies. Please turn up the music.
The car starts moving. A song plays from the speakers.
The girl looks out the window while the Wolf keeps glancing at the container of pies. The car pulls up to a tall apartment building.
Wolf: You know, Little Red Riding Hood, I don't actually work in taxi services. This is just my hobby.
Little Red Riding Hood: We're already here, I need to go. I'll be late for the concert.
The Wolf looks at the girl menacingly, his eyes gleaming with cunning. A devious plan has formed in his mind.
Wolf: Here's the deal, girl. Either you give me those pies and quietly go to your grandma, or I won't open the car door and you'll miss the concert.
Little Red Riding Hood: You can't do that! I won't give you the pies. My mom baked them for Grandma, not for the Big Bad Wolf!
Wolf: If you won't give me the pies, then I'll eat you!
Little Red Riding Hood doesn't panic. She quickly realizes she needs to call for help. While the Wolf briefly looks away, she presses the car horn with all her might and screams.
Little Red Riding Hood: Help! Robbery! Police!
Police officer Uncle Stepan happens to be passing by. He hears the screams from the car and rushes to help.
Uncle Stepan: Citizen Wolf, what's going on here?
Wolf: Sorry, officer, everything's fine. Move along.
Little Red Riding Hood: He tried to rob me and take my pies! And he won't let me out of the car! I'm going to be late!!!
Wolf: No one's holding you, go ahead.
The Wolf opens the doors and Little Red Riding Hood gets out of the car.
Little Red Riding Hood: Thank you, Uncle Stepan! Now I'll make it to Grandma's and the concert! And I'm giving the Wolf the lowest rating for this ride and filing a complaint.
Uncle Stepan: Don't mention it, girl, hurry along. (turning to the Wolf) Well, my friend, shall we do a breathalyzer test?
Wolf: Can we work something out, officer?
Uncle Stepan: I'm an honest police officer, I don't take bribes. So please, blow into this.
The Wolf does as the officer asks.
Uncle Stepan: Wow! Who's been eating fermented berries and then getting behind the wheel? That's not good. We'll have to file a report.
Wolf: Why did I ever get involved with this Little Red Riding Hood!
The End.
