After running back to my "home", my alleyway actually, I collapsed on my bed of rags. Oh yeah did I mention it's raining? Anyways, I was close to falling asleep until this girl walked up to me with an umbrella speaking Korean. I was going to ignore her but then I hear, "Are you okay? Do you have a home?"
"No...," I sat up ready to run if I need to but she smiled and held out her hand. 
"My name is Jennifer and I'll take care of you if you'll let me."
I stared at her hand. No one has ever showed me this much kindness...not even him. 
I realized she was still there and smiling slightly....I like that smile and I want to see it more often. 

What the fuck did I just say?!?!

I grabbed her hand realizing I have no choice if I'm going to survive here I'll need her. She smiled and said, "I hope we become very good friends."
