People are usually busy minding their own business living their normal life. Especially in a crowded city like London; people don't have time to get involved with the things happening around them, they need to get to their schedule and keep up with their mostly normal life.
But this "normal" life can change easily.
Chapters like this take some steps back in time and explain the events in the past; the events that might or might not have been so important, but they were important enough to affect the future.
There will be some of these chapters on the way, and they (including this one) are not from the pov of anyone special, just being narrated by me. Enjoy!

It was 7 p.m, the sun had already started setting. But people were still outside.
A young girl (around 20 years old) was coming back from one of the clothing shops that she really fancied. Every once in a while she would treat herself to that shop and if she saw something she liked, she would take it home with herself. As a material girl, she couldn't help herself.
The girl walked to her car, opened the door and got in. She was fastening her seatbelt when the door suddenly opened.
It was a young boy (around 19 years old). He was panting and seemed nervous.
- Can I have your car? It's an emergency!
- Sure!
She got out of the car and the young boy got in. He was about to start the car when he saw the girl sitting right next to him on the other seat.
- Ma'am you need to get out!
He was stressed out.
- If you're taking my car, you're taking me as well!
The police siren was getting louder and she was super firm, so he had no choice.
- Alright then...
The boy mumbled under his breath as he started driving with the highest speed that the car could take.
- Sit tight!
And the rush had begun. There were two police cars following them.
- Turn left on that street!
- No it's a dead-end!
- Just speed up and then turn around at the very end by hitting the brakes!
- But the car wouldn't take...
- Yes it would just do it!
The boy decided to trust the girl (since it was her car and she knew better) and turned left. As he was speeding up, the police cars sped up as well. It looked like they were going to crash but at the very last moment, the boy hit the brakes and turned the steering wheel.
The first police car crashed into a lamp post and the second one crashed into the first car. Before they could get their thoughts back together, the boy had driven away.
After driving for a while, the girl looked out of the back window.
- I think we lost'em.
So they stopped in an alley.
- Sorry 'bout that!
"What was it about?" The girl asked the boy. "Nothing that important." the boy said. "Just a little... problem. Between me and the police."
The girl stared at the boy for a while. She spoke at last. "I'll assume you robbed a bank!". "Just a little jewelry shop..." he said in a humble way. The girl seemed amused.
- Did you get anything?
- You're asking too much!
- Fine.
She looked away, kind of embarrassed. Then she looked back at the boy.
- Taylor.
- Harry.
They shook hands.
- You're good at this kind of stuff, Taylor!
- I've watched so many crime movies you could almost say I'm a criminal myself!
They both laughed.
- By the way, never let strangers drive your car especially if you're in it. God only knows what they might do to you!
- Says the person who just robbed a jewelry shop and did the same thing!
Harry was about to answer when his phone started ringing.
- Yeah?... yeah I'm... yeah... alright...alright fine.
He put his phone back in his pocket and looked at Taylor.
- My friend is coming to pick me up.
- Oh, okay. Bye.
- Thanks for the car.
- Wait!
Harry was about to get out of the car but he stopped. Taylor was holding a little piece of paper towards him. "My number." She said with a shy smile, blushing. "Call me if you want." Harry took the paper and couldn't help but smile widely. "I will... See ya!" Then he got out of the car.
That day, something new started. But unfortunately, as you may already know, nothing good starts in a getaway car.
