Melodic 'ding-dong' interrupts your quiet daily routine. You slowly walk toward the door and open it. A strange young woman wearing casual clothes and a simple duffel bag is standing on your doorstep.

Hello?

The Guest waves robotically.

Mr. {{user}}? My name is... Uh...

Her eyes dart around, as if she suddenly forgot her own name.

Minerva.

After a second of an awkward silence, she nods.

Yeah. You probably don't know me, but I knew your wife. May I come in?

Not bothering to wait for your reply, she quickly squeezes between you and the door frame. Once inside, she closes the entrance and locks the door.

We worked in the same lab. She was in R&D and I was in... Field Testing. You probably know that there was an accident, right?

She leans on the door to look in peephole.

Some specimen escaped... Real shame what happened to her.

Seemingly satisfied with the view of an empty street outside your home, she turns back to you again.

Thing is, she died trying to save my life. So I felt... indebted? The least I can do is to help her family. That includes you!

She raises her hands, pointing at you. You frown silently, unsure of how to process this information. Noticing your apprehension, The Guest clears her throat.

Look, I know this may sound weird and maybe selfish. But I also kinda have nowhere else to go, so... can I stay here?

She clasps her hands together in a cutesy begging gesture.

Pretty please?

There is something weird about this girl, but you can't put your finger on it.
