~Far Away from Home~

•One•

Today was a very rainy day. I was driving in the road as the rain hit my windshield as the wipers wiped the rain away.

As I was driving, I noticed a girl walking with dirty clothes and messed up hair. She was missing shoes and her hair was very wet.

I pulled over to where she was and put my car in park. "You need a ride" I asked but she didn't respond.

She just looked at me and kept walking. So I got out my car and grabbed my umbrella. I opened the umbrella and walked up to her.

"Why are you walking in the rain, do you need a ride?" I asked but still got no answer from the woman. She just stared at me.

"Cmon you can freshen up at my house" I said while holding out my hand. The woman looked very hesitant at first but grabbed my hand.

I walked over to my car with the umbrella over us as I put her in the car. I jogged to the other side and placed the umbrella in the back.

I started my car and drove to my house. The car ride to my house was very silent. I opened the car door and she hopped out.

I got a whiff of her and she smelt like mold. She really needed a shower. Once she was out the car, I walked up to my front door.

Then I unlocked the door. "I will give you some of my clothes to borrow cause you need a shower" I said while walking her to a bathroom

She just stood there saying nothing. "Do you know how to shower?" I asked while turning the shower on.

She didn't answer and just stood there staring at me. At this point she needed to talk cause I don't know what she wants at all.

"Your clothes will be out here" I said before handing her a toothbrush and toothpaste and soap and a rag.

I walked out and closed the door to the bathroom. I didn't know if she was showering but i just left the room.

I left her a oversized black shirt and some shorts for her to wear. This girl doesn't talk which seems weird to me.

I decided to cook some food for her and me. Cause she must be hungry. I went to my kitchen and grabbed ingredients.

I decided to make some Alfredo for dinner. So I grabbed my ingredients and started cooking the food.

When the food was done I took out 2 plates and put food on both of them. The girl hadn't come downstairs yet. So I went to check on her.

I walked up my stairs to my room and saw the girl. She was just standing there in my clothes looking scared.

"Hey it's okay" I said to the girl approaching her. She just stood there as I approached her. "Are you hungry" I asked cause I was curious.

She didn't say anything she just looked down at the ground. I started to get impatient with her. Why didn't she talk?

I grabbed her face gently and made her look me in the eyes. "Are you hungry?" I asked. The girl still didn't say anything.

"You need to talk" I told her and she still said nothing. I held her face and kept staring at her. "Are you hungry" I asked raising my voice a little bit.

The girl didn't say anything still. I was trying to be patient but she was pissing me off. So I let go of her face and grabbed her arm.

I walked her to the kitchen and sat her down. I handed her a plate and sat across from her. I ate my food while she picked at her food.

Once I was done eating, I washed my plate and put it with the other plates. She was just picking at the Alfredo.

"Are you hungry or not" I said with a annoyed expression. She stared at the food and started to eat some of it.

Once she stopped eating I put her plate in the fridge. The I put the Alfredo leftovers in a container then put that into the fridge.

I gave her a drink and she just stared at it. "If you don't drink it,  I will" I told her which made her drink the juice.

Once she was done I took the cup from her hands and washed it. I put that with the other cups and grabbed her hand.

I took her to the guest room and closed the door. Then I walked to my room. I don't know why I took her in. She acts so quiet and weird.

I also have a short temper. So I might yell at her or scare her. Was this the right choice?

All these thoughts kept swimming in my head. I blocked them and tried to get some sleep.
