She lay; abandoned
A small whimpering traveled through the walls of a suburban home. Inside, a couple lay sound asleep in their bedroom.
The woman woke upon the whimpering, with a glazed look over her eyes. She glanced over at the clock on the bedside table—3:00 am.

After a few moments of quiet conflict and deliberation, she ventured off on her own in search of the source of the sound.

I had packed my big purse with my regular travel items (toiletries, passport, phone, etc), and prepared myself for the expected wet weather. I was not looking forward to walking all day in the rain, but that’s never stopped me before.
