A Strange Girl
Ethan Lawrence, a renowned actor from a family whose name, the Lawrence family, resonated as one of the wealthiest in the country, had just wrapped up another exhausting day on set. "My shooting just finished. I should get some res...t waaaaaaaaaah!"
"Who are you?!" Ethan exclaimed, startled by the sight of a strange girl standing in his room. The place was a mess, and he had no idea how she had gotten in.
"Hey, you! What are you doing in my room?" he demanded, but the girl didn't seem to understand him. She was trembling, clearly afraid of something.
"Hmm, what is she afraid of?" Ethan wondered. Suddenly, he noticed something peculiar. When he brought his clock close to her, she jumped onto his bed and hid under the blanket, trembling even more. She looked like a little child scared of thunder.
Ethan approached her gently. "Come out," he said softly. "I won't do that again. I'm sorry for scaring you, okay?"
As she emerged from the blanket, Ethan couldn't help but notice her striking beauty—dark black hair and piercing blue eyes that gazed at him with curiosity. It was clear she couldn't speak. Her body was marked with numerous scars, some old and deep, suggesting she had endured severe torture inflicted by someone.
Suddenly, her stomach growled loudly. Realizing she must be hungry, Ethan decided to cook something. He quickly prepared some fried rice and handed it to her. She ate it with her bare hands, devouring each bite as if she had never eaten anything like it before.
Ethan wiped her mouth gently with a napkin, pondering his next steps. Should he inform the police? No, she didn't seem to understand anything. Despite this, he found himself strangely worried about her. Perhaps he should let her stay at his home for a few days.
She seemed like a modern-day Tarzan, unfamiliar with the ways of the world outside a jungle. Realizing it was late, Ethan handed her one of his t-shirts to change into. As she emerged from the room, he wondered anxiously if she would be able to manage putting it on. Thankfully, it appeared she had some understanding of how to wear clothes.
Ethan watched her with a mix of concern and curiosity, knowing that his life had just taken an unexpected turn with the arrival of this mysterious girl.
