h dear! You won't believe the day I had! 

I was doing my normal routine that I do on my days off - which is going to the beach and searching for pretty seashells. It's my favorite thing to do at the beach! Especially on a sunny and beautiful day like this.

It was the perfect day to look around and enjoy a wonderful view of the ocean! It's actually been a while since I've done this. For the past week it's been crazy busy working at the inn. There must have been an event that I wasn't aware of since it's been so packed. I wonder what the special occasion is because I have noticed that a lot of our guests are couples.

They weren't trying to hide it at the lounge and bar. It was lively and couples were doing what couples do. Like holding hands andwhispering in each other's ears which resulted in them giggling, and…kissing. A lot of kissing. 

Seeing them kiss makes me feel awkward and I wished they would find somewhere more private to be all affectionate. Some of my coworkers thought that I was being jealous when I expressed my discomfort about it. Which they are WRONG! 

Are they??

At least I don't think I am. There is nothing wrong about couples or being in a relationship. It's a wonderful thing to have! It's just…hmm. When I see couples, they seem so happy with each other's company and companionship. It seems to be nice and… I don't see myself being in one, at least not right now. I can settle for what I have now, which is my home, my job, and my peace of mind. But I’m getting off track, I need to tell you what I found!

So, I normally spend time at the beach near my home. Wandering around there always helps ease my stress and clear my head. My favorite part is finding pretty shells that wash up on shore. I had already found three lovely seashells in a 15 minute time span.  It would normally take me longer than that. Must be my Lucky day! 

I told myself just one more shell, then I can go fish out something yummy for dinner. I walked closer to where the waves washed up on the shore. It didn't take me that long to find another seashell. It was a vibrant pink with soft, scalloped edges. Wonderful! I couldn’t wait to take them home and add them to my collection! Now it was time to go fishing! I started walking to  find a good spot to- 

Oh My Goodness!!

What the... 

There's was a body on the sand! How did it get there??? I walked slowly over towards the body. As I got closer I noted that it was a boy. A pretty boy, if you asked me. Upon closer examination I noticed a faint rise and fall of his chest. He was still breathing! Thank Goodness! But now what??

I didn’t know what should I do with him? I couldn’t just leave him, it's not right. 

The closest place was my house. But, there wasn’t much in the way of food and all since I hadn’t gone shopping yet. I could probably ask my boss, Jean, for a favor. They could shop for me while I tended to the Wounded Wonder. I hope she will understand my new situation.

Dang, it seems like he got cuts and bruises on him and it needs to be treated before it gets infected. First, I needed to take him home and tend to his injuries. I was careful carrying him on my back to prevent any further damage to the poor guy. Hang in there, you poor thing. I will try my best to treat you to better health. I promise!
