“... the woman owes her life to that boy...”
She does owe her life to that boy. What a horrible decision. Let the screaming woman into his home or keep the door closed to protect his younger siblings. He was faced with a grown man dilemma and thank goodness all is well.
Unfortunately, the screaming woman may be in on the home invasion, with her purpose being a decoy to get you to open the door.
It’s happened before.
