I wander with a deep sigh through the park, my headphones the only escape from the boredom. I look up at the sky, noticing the sunlight starting to fall, giving the inclination that I should probably head back home. I doubt mom would care anyway.

I sit on a bench, overlooking the empty park as the loneliness really starts to set in. Man, I really need a boyfriend or something.

After a while, I notice someone walking along the path not too far away. She looked fairly young, that much was obvious, but there was something out of place about her. She was fitted in a very old fashioned dress, her pretty blonde hair up in a bun, looking as though she was impersonating an old lady. She looked over at me and grew even more startled than before, clearly afraid. Maybe I’ll ask if she’s alright. She looks harmless.

“Hey! Are you okay?!” I call out, standing up from the bench and walking over.
