Second cross road

(Ray)

After retrieving the second GLOCK from the trunk of the car, Ray fastened it into the empty holster and walked up to the front door of the car. He pulled it open and sat down on the seat before closing it. He placed his hands on the steering wheel, took a deep breath and then turned the vehicle on. The engine came alive as he felt the light hum reverberate through his body. He turned his head to the side and saw Meghan had already fastened her seatbelt, ready to depart. Behind him, Ravi also seemed to have made himself comfortable with his wheelchair folded neatly and placed in the gap between the front and back seats.

Ray then shifted the gear to drive and drove forward. "So I just keep going straight?" asked Ray as he glanced up at Ravi through the rear view mirror.

"Yes, there should be a left turn coming up. I'll let you know." Replied Ravi.

"So we're just taking a detour to completely avoid Varakala?" Meghan asked.
