I woke up alone. I sat up and looked around. Birds were chirping. The doors were still opened and the screen was still down but the sky seemed alive with noisy birds and the sun was beating through the screen with intensity. 

I got up to go to the bathroom. The door was closed but it was empty and the mirror was steamed up so he must've recently had a shower. I was still wearing his shirt. I got out of it, got into the shower, showered using a men's all in one hair and body wash on myself as that was all that was there. I used his damp towel as that was the only one there and then I put yesterday's clothes back on, minus the underwear, which had a large rip right up the back of them.They were pretty much assless now. 

I thought I'd grab my pj bag out of the Jeep from yesterday but when I got down the stairs and out into the middle of the barn the jeep was gone. The door was closed but I wasn't locked in. 

I frowned. Then I remembered that my Phone was in my jeans pocket.I lifted it out and saw that it was 9:25 am. I swiped over to contacts and there were just Taehyung and his brother Jimin listed there. 

I dialed Taehyung and it rang once but then went to voicemail so I went back upstairs and sat down on the sofa, which was facing the doors, and watched out the back. The phone only had 19% power remaining and I didn't have a charger so it wouldn't last for long.I needed caffeine. And underwear! 

There was a fridge here and a sink and microwave but no stove, no coffee maker. No coffee supplies. I looked in the cupboard and fridge. The fridge had the remnants of last night's dinner. The cupboard had some tools, a flashlight, lantern, lamp oil, bug repellant, guitar strings and picks, and a box of bullets. Nice. (Not!) No coffee or tea or sugar (or extra underwear). There were a few t-shirts of Taehyung and a pair of jeans. There was also a half-eaten but not closed properly box of Sugar Crisp. The clothes were all folded and clean looking but no underwear.I opened a vitamin water and then made the bed and then laid there on it, deciding to wait for him. What else could I do?

Two hours later he still hadn't come back and I'd spent enough time in my own head. I was about to wander outside just out of boredom but then I heard a car pull in and heard voices. I walked down the stairs and peeked outside through a window in one of the stalls and saw that an older couple were standing in the gravel driveway right up beside the barn (despite it being a few hundred feet from the road) looking at a map and discussing the right way to get to some town I hadn't heard of. I listened for a minute and then saw the woman wave at me. How she'd spotted me in the shadows peeking out the window I hadn't a clue but she had seen me. She started walking toward the barn and the husband followed. Shit. I stepped out of the barn.

"Hello" I smiled.

The lady looked to be in her late 60's or even her 70's, maybe.

"I'm sorry to disturb you dear, but we're trying to get to highway ten. It's a bit confusing on the map."

I looked at the map.

"I'm sorry, I'm just visiting and I don't know the area very well."

"Well, if you'll just look---" The wife started and the husband interrupted, "Millie, he obviously doesn't know where highway ten is so let's not waste his time."

"We're here..." the wife ignored the old guy and put a bright pink pointy fingernail on the map and I saw that it said line 10.

"Oh," I said, "If this is where we are, this is line 10. That's not the same as highway ten. That's over there." I pointed a few inches over to the left. "It looks like if you take this road  you can then get to highway 9 and that'll easily get you to highway 10. It looks pretty straightforward. I don't know the area, though, so not sure I'm the best judge."
