So many things were going through my mind I believed it would've exploded. I tried to divert my thoughts. I tried to tell myself that I'm acting like a worried mother, worrying about why my kid was a minute late, but it didn't help. Ok, maybe for a minute, thinking about and finally understanding how mother felt almost all the time ,but my thoughts would still linger at him.

As if reading my thoughts on wanting a distraction, a car swerved pass and nearly hit us, and for the first time, the cab driver spoke. "Buckle up ma'am, this is going to be a bumpy ride!" I was just about to point out that I was already wearing my seat belt ( I smiled on the inside at how I still had my silly sense of humor), when the cab jolted towards the right!

I got a glimpse of the crazy driver. He somehow seemed familiar. I foraged through my brain, thinking hard. I hated the fact that I have a hard time remembering people. And then it hit me. It was the perv! Why, that lunatic really got me mad following me around!

I did the craziest thing, I threw my water bottle at his car, not knowing what I just asked for! He sped up so much I could hear his engine roar. He was gaining speed and catching up with us.

I was so terrified that I actually jumped out the backseat and sat next to the driver on the passenger seat. " Ma'am, would you mind calling sir Luke?" I gapped, then snapped out of it " How stupid can I get? I had the phone with me the whole time, and the thought about calling didn't even occur!"

"LUKE, HELLO, ITS ME, THERE'S THIS CRAZY GUY FOLLOWING US AND HE'S GETTING REALLY CLOSE. HE WAS ABOUT TO SMASH INTO OUR CAR BUT MISSED AND I GOT MAD SO I THREW A BOTTLE AT HIM AND I THINK HES MAD CUZ NOW HE'S AFTER US, AND AND-"

He cut me off "Leslie, CALM DOWN!"

"But," I tried to continue telling my nightmare but he cut in again.

"LESLIE!!, just listen will you!?"
