章節 38: CHAPTER 38: Albany, Illinois

　　“Honk”

　　“Honk”

　　“Honk”

　　While sitting at the stop sign and waiting for an older woman to cross the road, a vehicle pulls up behind me and honks several times. I glance in the rearview mirror to see a man in his twenties sitting in his car and gesturing at me to move. Sticking my head out the window of the truck, I look back and give him a dirty look when he does it again.

　　Strangely, when I do, I see a flash of red in the back seat of his SUV. Paying even more attention now, I pull my head back in and continue to look in my rearview mirror. The next thing I know, he backs up and then rams me hard. He hits me so hard that it pushes my old beat-up truck right into the curb where the older woman is standing. She moves backwards just in time before my truck lands where she had been previously.
