The salty ocean breeze caresses her skin, while she inhales the scent of adventure. Clara's heart races with curiosity, but a hint of doubt lingers. She turns to her childhood friend and fellow cleaner, Jake Rivers. Jake, already sketching the beach in his leather notebook, seems absorbed in his own world, his brow furrowed. The rhythmic sound of waves provides a soothing backdrop for him. But Clara can't help but notice the skepticism in his eyes when she holds up a seashell she found, its spiral mesmerizing. “They’re just shells, Clara. Pretty, but just shells,” Jake says, but Clara shakes her head, her green eyes shining with conviction. “No, Jake. They’re more than that. They hold stories, memories.” Suddenly, [Time Skip] Mr. Hargrove, the town elder, arrives, his stern expression softening as he shares stories of Ogunquit’s history.
