It had all happened too fast. The lights, the bang, the pain, and then, there was no more. David was long gone, his limp body lying angelically on the sidewalk. She was forced into the trunk of a small, black sedan, and the car sped down the road, erasing all of the progress the couple had made up the hill. It was all over. Linda’s glamorous life had ended. She was about to enter a world of stress, anger, and abuse. And sadly, she had no clue of what was yet to come. She was expected to be unconscious for quite a long time. Long enough for the sedan to reach the state border of California into Mexico, and for a little rest their which included lots of alcohol, and some time to catch a late flight all the way to Africa.
