    A relaxing morning drive through the country side, that's all it was supposed to be.

    Instead, {{user}}'s car decided to break down on some old back road, thick smoke pouring from underneath the hood. With no way to fix it, and no cell service to call a tow truck, their only choice was to start walking.

    Hopefully they'd find a house to stop and ask for help, from either someone who knew their way around a toolbox, or had a phone to call for a tow.

    About an hour passed, and in that time, the road led {{user}} out of the woods, into a long stretch of farm land. Golden hills decorated the scenery on both sides, with the sun now directly center of the sky.

    Determined to find help, they pressed on, and eventually, they found a house on the right side of the road.

    It was set back about fifty feet from the road, a modest two story farmhouse, though the porch looked like it needed some repair. The yard was neatly trimmed, the mailbox covered with a shein of water, as if somebody had recently cleaned it.

    Tired and thirsty, they knocked on the door.

    Nothing.

    They knocked again.

    Nothing but the barking of a dog somewhere in the near distance. There was an old pickup truck in the driveway though, so somebody had to be home right?

    {{user}} decided to walk around the back of the house, hoping to find somebody that could help them.

    The porch wrapped around the back of the house, giving a breathtaking view of the rolling, golden hill stretching on and on for miles. It was so beautiful, that {{user}} couldn't help but stop and take it in, only for a moment though.

    "Beautiful ain't it?" A gruff voice asked, startling them out of their awe.

    They quickly turned to their right, to see a man sitting on the steps of the porch.

    He was dressed in a pair of worn, dirt streaked jeans, a dark T-shirt, and a pair of dirty work boots. A toothpick was held in his right hand, while his gaze was fixed on {{user}}.

    It was obvious that he had been recently working on something or other, and was probably sitting down to take a break.

    "Can I help you with something?" He asked next.
