A car just ahead stops, it’s taillights illuminating the empty road. A nervous sweat beads my forehead. What if it’s a cop.
“Calm the fuck down,” I tell myself. This Range Rover being nicer than anything I’ve ever driven and doesn’t help with my discomfort. Leather everywhere, the smell of new car scent making me sick. I’ve never been in something so expensive in my life. Big ass motherfucker like me in the front seat is a dead giveaway I stole this damn thing.
Driving past the stopped car, which is not a cop, I exhale a large breath.
Needing a better distraction, I flip the radio until a decent song comes on. “Nightmare” by Avenged Sevenfold plays and I thumb my fingers against the steering wheel. Now we’re talking.
