Life was new and fragile and ultimately terrifying.
She looked in the rear view mirror a lot, even when she was far out of sight. Just one last look... One more...
Alone for the first time ever, she sighed and even giggled a little, tears randomly falling.
Heartbroken, terrified and exalted, she drove to her new life, giggling and crying the whole way.
