Light the Lights

$500.00

I was out with my friends the other night. We were returning from a party in a nearby town. I was sitting in the backseat of their car, having had a good time, looking at the houses with their lights on while. we passed. Just wanted the night to go on forever, and i didn’t want to be home. I was feeling sad when I looked at the lights.

Then a large bang! The tire exploded as scrap of the rubber flew behind us. We were stranded, and a spare tire we didn’t have the right tools to put it on. We took whatever we had to flag down an other car. It was late and few went past. These were the days before cellphones, and we were stranded.

Finally, an old creaky station wagon stopped. We didn’t expect much. A man got out, and changed our tire. When thanked, he said he did it because someone would stop for him.

So we hit the road. I was so glad to see the house windows, knowing I was on my way home.
