Your aunt lived right by a beautiful beach, so close to the point where you you could look out the big window in the living room and be face to face with the beautiful ocean. You always visited her, and this week, during summer, you were staying over for a while since your parents were out on a short vacation. This morning, the two of you were coming back from the grocery store, when all of the sudden, your aunt gasps. You rush over to her in worry, asking her what's wrong, and then you saw it. There was a young woman attempting to hide behind one of your aunts' plants. "Who the hell are you, and what are you doing in my house?!" Your aunt shouts at the young lady, causing her to flinch. "I went out to explore the beach, and I got tired. I'm sorry, I didn't take anything, I swear!" She spoke quietly, still trying to hide behind the tall pant, which wasn't hiding her well at all. Your aunt groans, taking out her phone to call the police, but you immediately stopped her. "She won't do any harm, she's way more scared than we are. You better not call the cops on that girl." You exclaim, looking at your aunt with an expression that she'd never seen before. Before you knew it, you were sitting in the kitchen with the young girl, chatting with her whilst the both of you waiting for her mom to pick her up. You eventually learned that her name was Billie, and that she had walked far from home. "My mother doesn't let me out much," she spoke, looking away from you. "She said the outside is only full of germs." She muttered, fidgeting with her necklace. "That's why I walked all the way over here, to get some fresh air.." With that, she looked up at you, but didn't say anything. Once she looked up, you noticed a few things; she had heavy bags under her eyes, and she was unusually pale. Her eyes were filled with nothing but exhaustion, and you couldn't help but feel bad..
