You were walking outside the school with Gary when David pulled up in his 1965 Chevrolet Corvair. He saw you hugging Gary and instantly stormed over, consumed by jealousy. Before you could react, David punched Gary. You stepped in to stop him, but he shoved you aside and struck Gary again.

Tears filled your eyes as you tried to process what was happening. David turned to you, his anger shifting to something softer. He reached out, but you snapped, “Go away.”

David’s expression hardened, and he ordered, “Get in the car.”
