I heard mom say something….murmured it to my father. Something was wrong. I could tell by the way they were acting. Mom kept looking in her review mirror so eventually I looked up from our book and turned around and looked. There was a man behind us. A man that looked like a bandit from a movie. I didn’t understand why he being behind us seemed to bother my parents. Then I heard the tyres slide on the road. My dad had turned sharply and suddenly around a corner and I could see that it wasn’t where we wanted to go. I dropped my book and quickly slid the unlock on my phone and texted my cousin Anna saying “Hey gal, something’s up. My parents are acting weird…turned off the road and idk where we going..prob gonna be late” she replied a minute later with “maybe it’s a surprise?”
“no” I texted back “I think there’s a guy following us.”
“no” I texted back “I think there’s a guy following us.”
I clicked send. There was a screech of brakes. I looked behind us and saw the man accelerating towards us…almost into us. My mom gasped. Seconds felt like minutes. My dad swerved. I could see the guy was heading for us. He meant to go into us. I screamed. I felt myself slam into the door as my dad swerved again but the man was upon us. My phone flew from my hand. The road was empty, no one could witness anything. I felt the impact from behind me. I saw the airbags pop out for my parents. I saw metal. I heard my mom and I screaming. Then, there was nothing.
