Rose and Tom stepped out of the car being careful not to stand in any patches of dirtied water.Once, they approached where the Bothy stood Rose and Tom halted in their tracks at what they saw. There, in all of its restored beauty stood the Bothy; completely untouched. Rose's heart soared, the fact that the project was completed, and had survived the storm combined with the obstacles was momentous. On top of that, she had managed to stay under budget.

She felt the heat from her body evaporate into the monochorme tiles as she blacked out from exhaustion. A man was whistling to himself as he strolled down the lane and entered his little Bothy.

A few days prior Clarissa received a letter informing that she was being called up to appear as a witness in a trial against her ex. She fixed her dress and combed her hair staring into her reflection.

Two bulky men wearing suits were searching around. They had already ransacked the house before killing every animal on the property. Justin felt enraged by this, and his fear for Kendrick grew exponentially. She had gotten away but only by a few miles. These agents wouldn't stop for anything. Justin patted his thigh trying to steady his nerves. He kicked a few pine cones, one of them hit a rabbit grazing nearby, causing it to hop away after shooting Justin a dirty look.
