Grandpa slammed on the brakes, and thecar did a 180 before coming to a stop in thebreakdown lane. It’s a MIRACLE we didn’tget hit, and our near-death experience reallyshook both of us up.Suddenly a water stain on the kitchen ceilingdidn’t seem like such a big deal anymore. Me andGrandpa agreed we should just go back home andcall it a day.At least NOW we were headed in the rightdirection. But when Grandpa put the car in drive,it rolled a few feet, then conked out.119
At first I thought something must’ve happenedto the car when Grandpa slammed on the brakes,but when I looked at the dashboard, I realizedwe were out of GAS.Rodrick used the car last night when he went towork, and of COURSE he didn’t refuel it.Grandpa saw a sign ahead that said there was aservice station a mile up the road, and he told mehe was gonna walk there and bring back a can ofgas so we could get home.I wanted to go WITH him, but he said Ishould stay in the car so it didn’t get towed bythe highway department. I didn’t feel greatabout the whole idea, but I figured it was theonly choice I had.120
