What's next?

Follow the stream.

Jade decides to follow the stream, conscious of the cover it can potentially provide in contrast to the wide open beach.

At the stream, Jade spends a few minutes cleaning herself up from her earlier encounter with one of the island's men. Once done, she quickly tops off her canteens once more before setting off. For the next few minutes, she follows the stream, until she sees what appears to be a wooden building ahead.

Intimately aware of how things went the last time she found a building, she circles the area once to get her bearings, already planning her path to escape before nearing the building.

The building has a single window in each of its four walls, as well as a door with a peep hole. When Jade reaches the building, she tries to look inside, only to realize that curtains cover all of the windows.

Jade is just working up the courage to peek in the peep hole in the hopes of seeing something when she hears something a ways off. When she looks, she sees a group of three men walking together. Their lack of urgency suggests that they haven't seen her yet, but there's little doubt that will change soon if she does not find cover fast.
