It was late night. The road was dark. No lighting system anywhere. No love sign. I felt guilty in a sort of way leaving Earth. The road brought me memories, anyway we live in US and never got to UK.
My father taking into his hands, my mom hugging me when I needed me, running my first tricycle, having movie nights, traveling to Disney World, between other childhood memories.
Our never ending memories.
The car turned on the gas sign indicating there was low fuel.
The was this gas station half mile away from where we are.
I seriously don't know how the car's gps is functioning because the satellites were down. Maybe its a lucky car.
We arrive at the gas station and grab the flashlight and enter to the building. The radio was static. The sealing of the store was all tear apart. Is really creepy inside.
Jessica screamed. Sam and I looked each other faces panicked and run towards where she was.
"Oh", Jessica laughs.
"It's a reindeer"
A reindeer? Inside the store? Alive? How is it possible. He was very skinny anyways. I get a licorice and gave it to him. It may be expires, but whatever, food is food.
"We're losing time. I'm gonna load the car.", I said.
I went whistling towards the car. The weather was freezing cold. It was like 22° F and it was nearly Fall.
I load up the car and call Sam and Jessica to continue the trip.
The car went so nice and smooth I was sleeping. There was no radio so I could stay awake. Jessica and Sam were sleeping so I was the only on guard.
An idea came to my mind. Sing at my had, it may help...
"Standing here in your presence
In a grace so relentless
I am won by perfect love
Wrapped within arms of heaven
In a peace that last forever
Sinking deep in mercy's sea
I'm wide awake, drawing close, stirred by grace
And all my heart is yours
All fear removed, I breathe you in, I lean into your love..."
I stopped. A light was reflecting on the car mirrors and it scared me, a lot. My heart skipped a bump.
"Guys, I theres this light behind us...", I alert Sam and Jessica.
The looked at me strange and then looked back, and turned pale.
"We were the only one right?", Jessica ask.
I don't think so.
"We got company...", Sam said.
The light is getting closer and closer.
