Allie bit the inside of her cheek. Why was she so optimistic? "I'll admit that I didn't want to come here. I had myself a small cabin in a secluded area in the woods; all day I would read and watch nature. I didn't want to be forced out of my home, but I realized that I could either mope about it the entire time, or I could actually try to enjoy my stay. It really is a very beautiful home that you've got here." As the words poured out of her, she knew they were true.
