Road Trip

I was on the way to New York City with my best friend Olivia because we were going to see what it's like in New York. Olivia is most excited, because she said that now that we're going to a city, she will never have the hear other country song again. I was hoping that the food would be good and the traffic wouldn't be bad, but I was proven wrong when we were caught in traffic for hours. After a couple minutes, we got bored, so I turned on the radio and the song "Love More" by Chris Brown came on. I turned it up and we sing, dance, and "turn up", and by the time we got into the main part of the city, we were tired and already lost.

"Let's ask someone for directions." I said.

"We're in New York, not wonderland" Olivia said, looking at me and rolling her eyes sarcastically. "I'm sure we can find our own way."

"Oh right." I said. But, instead of listening to Olivia, I opened up the car door and jumped out while it was still moving.

"Faith!"

"I'm going to ask this guy for directions!" I walked to some guy on the side of the road who looked like he may have been drunk. Not a very smart move. "Um... sir? Can you help us?" I said.

By this time, Olivia was right beside me trying to get me back in the car, and the man said "How about you come with me, and then I'll help." He grabbed mine and Olivia's arms and I did the only thing I could think of- I kicked him in the balls. Olivia punched his face and we ran like lighting, but he ran after us to the best of his ability. After he was done crying, he regained strength and he cornered us in an alley. He had a gun and held it to us, angrily shouting "Come with me NOW!"

Like Jesus was watching over us, the street light went out. A few moments passed, and when the light came back on. The man was tied up with a gag in his mouth. Olivia looked at me in shock, and my Geek side came out. "Were we just saved by Spiderman?"

Olivia laughed at me and said "I think we were saved by the good Lord!"

We left, but also wondered what happen. We wanted to know more, but we would have to wait until morning to get details. We were so tired from traveling all through the night. As soon as we got to the apartment we had just moved into, the first thing we did was jump for the bed and went to sleep.
