The Girl He Craves

Mitch blares the horn again and looks at me through the rearview mirror. “Sorry sir about the hold-up.” He apologized even though it wasn’t his fault.

I looked back at the old car in front of us. The woman looks to be frustrated in there.

I was tempted to ask Mitch about the mysterious woman but I bit my tongue and just nod ded.

She drove cautiously and when she was finally on the main road, I find myself turning around to stare at her car.

Who was this woman and why does she feel so familiar to me? Why does just seeing a glimpse of her, even though it’s the back of her, make me feel so strange?
