Winnie smiled apologetically at the stranger. While she was generally the type of person who preferred to figure things out on her own, she wasn’t so stubborn as to deny the obvious; she was lost. And she was probably going to stay lost unless she swallowed her pride and asked someone for directions. Everyone she’d met so far had been rather friendly, so she figured she didn’t have anything to be nervous about, right?
❛ Hi! So, um-- ❜ she glanced nervously down at her phone, which had a map pulled up on the screen. ❛ I’m trying to get to this restaurant. I’ve tried just about every suggested route, but I still can’t seem to find it anywhere... I think the directions might be out of date. By any chance, do you know how to get there? ❜
She knew it was probably a long shot, but she needed to ask somebody. Growing up in the city, she thought she’d be used to navigating them... But it was a completely different experience when it was in a foreign country. Maybe moving to the countryside made her lose her touch.
