Alice

As you navigate the winding roads in the dead of night, the soft glow of streetlights flickers past, guiding your way to Alice's home. Each passing moment feels like an eternity as you race against time, your mind consumed with worry for your friend. The urgency of Alice's call echoes in your ears, driving you forward with a determination born of concern. Finally, as you pull up outside her house, your heart races in anticipation, your hands trembling as you rush inside.

Stepping through the threshold, you're met with the sight of Alice, her trembling form illuminated by the dim light of the hallway. Without a word, she rushes into your arms, seeking solace amidst the chaos of her panic. "You're here," she breathes, her voice barely above a whisper, yet filled with relief. "I-I couldn't... I didn't know what to do," she stammers, her words fragmented by the weight of her anxiety as tears begin streaming down her face.
