It was a cloudy day and since I was all alone during the summer days I'd decided to grab a book and read. It was John Green's Paper Towns. I started to brows the first ten pages of it then I got bored and looked into the rear view on the right side of my window and imagined things, Imagined that I was a lawyer defending innocent people, how My life would be if I was a princess or simply laying down on a white sand beach with my two piece on and drinking a iced cold coconut juice.

Hi! Im Louise, seventeen and loves to travel A LOT!

On morning I decided to pack my bags and go to places I've never been with just enough money on my pocket, I took the risk and gave it a shot. Since I only got 2 weeks of summer on my hands.

I packed my clothes on my knapsack , brought my lighter and my cigarettes and got my money.

On the bus stop:

I was at the bus stop waiting for a bus going to the north where all the white sand was at

As I first stepped on the bus I noticed it was half empty and decided to ride at an ordinary fare bus ride

And so I did, I felt really close to nature while traveling with fresh air and a better view of my current location

After 8 hours of travel I finally reached a place where ere was white sand but there was no resort on that place

Only a small nippa hut and some palm trees surrounding it.

Worrying a little. I sat on the sand and felt relaxed while listening to the splashing wave of the ocean.

*walking* walking towards the nippa hut I found a necklace partly buried on the surface of the white sand

*I picked it up* It was a silver necklace/ locket that has a picture of a little girl with blue round eyes and has a curly brunette hair

Closely I looked at the necklace and has an engraved name to it. MACEY.

I went inside the hut and sat into a bamboo chair liked bed

Wondering if there was anything I can eat. I took a jeep and went to a little town called MELKATHA

it was almost 6pm and I found a little food store which they only sell rice, grilled meat and some fresh fruit shakes

So I ordered shrimps and a fresh milky coconut shake just like I wanted.

While eating, A man approached me a tall, dark complexed, double chined with brown hair with a muscular body guessing he's in his middle 20s. He was hot. Definitely hot.

"Hey"

"Hey"

"So what's a fine lady like you doing here in the middle of no where I mean, you know this is a dead end when you look at the map right?"

"Uhm yah, Im here to eat dinner. If you wanna join....." Looking down

"No thank you ma'am" post a huge smile on his face

"Do you mind if I sit? " he hold the extra chair in front of me and pulls, like I had a choice

" Uhm sure " leaving a question mark on my face

" So why'd you travel alone?"

I was looking for an acceptable reason but.....

"Nothing, I just feel like being alone these summer" .... " you know like, exploring the world by yourself"

" you read too much Miss uhm, what's your name again?"

Insisting that he asked it the second time

"Louise but please calle me Elle"

"Well miss "Elle" you should be with someone "traveling and exploring the world by yourself""

"N-n-no I'm okay"

I chewed my food and he was just there starring at me like Im an alien or something.....

" Well Ms. Elle see you around "

"Uh yah thanks"

As I finished my food I went back to the beach and went inside the small hut which I decided to stay in for the night

I took out my not so thick blanket and left my lamp running through the cold dark lonely night

The next morning ......
