Chapter 107
Ethan
Gravel kicks up behind me as I make my way down Tilda’s driveway.
I wanted to come here straight from work, but I had to run into Lonely to get a screen door kit from the hardware store.
I also got a bag of takeout tacos because I plan to stay.
I make the last turn in the long driveway and take my foot off the gas.
“What the…”
Two cars are parked, blocking the driveway.
Blocking the way between me and my girl.
Two cars. With Nevada plates.
And as I get closer, I see the group of people standing in front of Tilda’s house.
I press my foot down on the gas.
Being reckless, and not giving a single fuck about it, I steer off the driveway, up into the grass, my truck at an angle as the ground slopes up toward the park.
All heads turn my way. And when I veer back onto the driveway, I slam on my brakes, sending a dust cloud and bits of rock at Tilda’s rotten family.
