Plot Using The Ideas
Kirsten Collins likes to travel so much. She would spend her weekends and holidays going to the beach, going to different kinds of museums, hiking with her friends, exploring the beautiful country of the Philippines and many more to mention. But the thing is.... that was before. She definitely has a different life now compared to her extreme life before.
Lucas Wolff, a young man who also loves to travel, used to be Kirsten's schoolmate. He doesn't know Kirsten personally but he knows how much she loves to travel around the country. Since he also loves to travel he really wants to make one of his dreams come true; to travel with Kirsten. But will his dream come true if he has no idea where Kirsten is now? Will he ever find her again or his dream to travel with her will just remain as a dream?
Why is Kirsten’s life right now different to how it was before?
Kirsten met an accident and since it almost caused her life to come to an end, her mom, Nancy, forced her to stop travelling again.
Why does Lucas want to travel with Kirsten?
He feels like he has a limited time and wants to do things such as travelling, going to extreme rides and many more as possible if he can. That's why he really wanted to travel with Kirsten since she’s one of his favorite travel vlogger.

Scene 1 (Hospital):
Kirsten was at the hospital because she met an accident. Her mom told her not to travel for 3 years for her safety. Kirsten's mom assured her that she can go back to travelling again after 3 years. Kirsten thought that’s all but her mom suddenly told her that she’ll go back to homeschooling again.
Scene From Chapter 1:
Scene 1 (Kirsten’s Room):

Scene 2 (Kirsten’s Room):
She woke up from her nap because Ken, her best friend, called him. She forgot about their meetup but she’s sure that she’s still going to meet him. After she prepared for their meetup, she went down and her mom saw her. Nancy forbade her to go out but Kirsten insisted that she really want to meet Ken.
Scene 3 (Coffee Shop):
Kirsten’s happy to see Ken again. When she arrived at the Coffee Shop, she noticed a man sitting beside her but she thought he just used the chair to sit for a minute and would leave in no time. Ken then told Kirsten that he’ll just buy a coffee which she agreed to. After that, the man beside her sits in front of her and kept on staring at her. Who’s this guy? Kirsten’s confused.
