Proceeding to a fork, the sight of a yield sign catches my eye. The grinding sound of malfunctioning brakes rattle my ear drums, looking forward seeing the yield sign pass with no hesitation, the accelerating vehicle proceeds to move towards us. I quickly brace myself for impact; I grabbed the front of the dash, and gripped the door handle. Glancing over at Jordan I see no seat belt, because he decided to take it off prior.

I asked if they were alright, but no reply, I felt insulted and walked in desperate search for my glasses. Diving back into the truck, I begin to dig through the old brake pads and napkins. After two minutes I give up, and exit the crash. As soon as I squeeze out I check myself and notice blood all over me, I search myself and cannot find a wound, and I realize the blood wasn’t mine.
