And then darkness rushed in.
Epilogue
I woke in the car. We were bouncing over the gravel road because Buddy was driving so fast. I heard the tiny stones being kicked up into the wheel wells. Buddy didn't know I was conscious. I could see how terrified he was. I groaned and sat up.
"What happened?" I asked.
"You fainted. I got out and got you into the car as quickly as I could and drove off. What happened there? Why did you come running out like that?"
"Did anyone come after me?"
He shook his head. "But I wasn't going to wait around to see."
"Good."
We reached the smooth macadam portion of the road, and he picked up more speed.
"So? Who was in there? What did you find out? But more importantly, what made you run to the car like that and faint?"
