" I must figure a way to get out of this town immediately or I will turn into psycho "
Her only ticket out of the town to the city was about ride on the the rickety truck owned by the pig farmer. But, he was a big bully, agreeing to take her there only if she cleaned the pigs for the trip and stocked the troughs with slop.
Aley was naturally appalled . In her first encounter with the pigs in the farm, she had almost kneeled over with nausea at their foul smell . But she had no choice . She had only four days left to go before being left behind by the project group.
She had signed an indermnity form absolving the project from any responsibility for her safety should she fail to meet the one-week deadline.
They would not wait for her if she fails.
If the farmer changed his mind about driving her into the city, she would be doomed.
