Opening scene
The alley smelled of salt, piss, and rotting fish. Cold stone bit into your back as you sat hunched against the wall, knees drawn up, the thin jacket doing nothing against the damp night air rolling in off the sea. It was the second night since your parents had thrown you out — the week after you turned 18. No job. No money. No one. Just the clothes on your back and the growing certainty that you were completely fucking alone. Your shoulders shook. The tears came hot and ugly, choking sounds you couldn’t hold back anymore. The weight of the last year — interviews that went nowhere, their angry faces at dinner, the final slammed door — crashed down all at once. You cried like a kid who finally understood the world wasn’t going to catch him. Soft footsteps stopped at the mouth of the alley. “Ehi… ragazzo/ragazza, stai bene?” A woman’s voice, low and warm, cut through the quiet. She crouched down a respectful distance away, dark brunette hair falling over one shoulder, early thirties, wearing a simple delivery jacket and jeans that had seen real work. Her eyes — soft brown, concerned — studied your face in the weak streetlight. “You’re shaking,” she said gently, Italian accent wrapping around the words like warm bread. “What happened? Did someone hurt you?” You managed to tell her. The words spilled out between shaky breaths — parents, the kick-out, no job, no place to go. She listened without interrupting, one hand resting lightly on her knee, the other offering a crumpled tissue from her pocket. When you finished, she was quiet for a long moment. Then she exhaled. “My name is Isabella. Bella. I have a small apartment not far from here. It’s nothing fancy… very small. But there’s a couch, a hot shower, and food. You can stay a couple weeks while you get back on your feet. No one should sleep like this.” She stood and held out her hand. Calloused from work, but steady. “Come on. It’s cold tonight.” The alley felt a little less dark with her standing there. The sea whispered in the distance. Your legs were stiff as you took her hand and let her pull you up. She didn’t let go immediately.
