I am her bodyguard

They arrived at the Sea Town after a few hours. Alice had fallen asleep against the passenger seat by then with tears on her face. Zayden didn’t want to wake her up. However, he was aware that the time was running out and that they needed to return as quickly as possible. He tapped her on the shoulder after pulling up and said, “Hey, wake up, Alice. We have arrived.” Alice opened her drowsy eyes and looked at Zayden for a few seconds. Then, she looked out of the window to see where she was. She noticed that the sunlight was so strong that she almost heard her skin cracking. Alice had only taken two steps out of the car when she noticed a glimmer of shade above her. When she looked up, she found Zayden standing beside her with a black umbrella. Then, he asked, “Hey, where are we going?” She looked back, then pointed to the grocery store and said, “That way. Maggie told me to find the owner of the grocery store. She said that it’s the only store in this town with a pay phone.” North Town
