Alright, guys hope you enjoyed this vlog! It is finally time to go home!" I end the video and go to check out of my room.
The smell of breakfast food filled the air, it seems like yesterday when I first started my vlog here. I've gained many followers but I can't help but wonder now that it's finished, what should I do next? Many people only followed me because of it.
I place my room key on the front desk and ring the silver bell once.
I guess it's time to head to the airport. I should text my mom and let her know I'm coming home. I pull out my phone and open her contact.
"Mom I will be home tomorrow"
I go to open the uber app but I hear loud helicopters fly over the city, my phone violently vibrates and a loud alarm goes off.
What's going on?
I notice civilians running into their houses after glancing at there phones. I look and it says in red, bold writing "Civilians are to go on lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic".
What? I scroll and read the rest, most of I was how the virus was spreading quickly, but at the bottom, it said in bold "No one will be able to enter or exit the country, any refusal to follow the law will result in officers to use brute force" Oh no.
I rush back into the hotel frantically, "Excuse me miss I would like to check back in-" she cuts me off "No can do, we are only housing the people here already! You will have to leave"
I grab my luggage and run out into the crowded streets. Why god must you send Corna my way?

I was going back to the US today, so obviously they unbooked my room. I have no one here at all, so here I am; baggage in hand, hiding in an ally, overthinking all of my life decisions.
Suddenly, I feel a light tap on my shoulder. I turn around and stare at the tall figure. From what I can see, it is a man, which makes me even more afraid.
"Help?"
"Oh, sorry I can't help you."
He shook his head, "You help?" Me? Well, I do need help, but he is a stranger. Then again, I don't really have another choice.
I take out my pepper spray and he swiftly backs away."No! No, I won't hurt you! This" I hold up my pepper spray "is safety." He hesitantly comes closer to me then puts his hand in mine. I nod and he leads me...somewhere.
I guess if this was a story this would be my beginning.
