Carrie
I don’t think this is what Mia had in mind for her wedding…
Rain is slamming into my windshield like I’m driving under Niagara
Falls. My poor old wipers are doing their darndest to keep up, but failing
miserably. I can’t see a thing.
I’m a bit of a nervous driver under the best of conditions, so this is really
starting to freak me out. Secluded dirt mountain road, torrential rain, no cell
phone reception—this is bad.
I stop the car and cringe when I hear the violent sound of rain pounding
the roof.
What the heck should I do?
I look at my phone. That stupid circle keeps turning, but nothing is being
updated. There’s no reception.
There’s nothing but giant trees all around me. I start to think maybe I
should have gone left instead of right back at the split about thirty minutes
ago.
Mia and Julian are getting married at the Greene Mountain Lodge on
Saturday and I’m the maid of honor. I thought that leaving on Thursday
would leave me enough time to get there, but with this crazy rainstorm, I’m
not so sure. I can’t see a thing and it’s starting to sink in that I’m lost.
The Greene Mountain Lodge is within walking distance of the cute little
town on Greene Mountain. I don’t see an adorable little town with
cobblestone streets, overpriced stores selling knick-knacks that no one really
needs, or cozy pubs that have overpriced beer with weird stuff in it like
cranberries and cinnamon. I don’t see a spectacular lodge. I don’t see my
friends. I don’t see anything but rain and trees!
“Where the fuck am I?” I scream as I slam my palm onto the steering
wheel, setting my horn off like a toddler having a temper tantrum.
There’s no backing out of here. The dirt road has turned to thick mud and
it’s crazy steep with these insane drops around every corner. It would be a
challenge with full visibility and a team of air traffic controllers guiding my
way with those little orange batons. On my own in this rainstorm, turning
back would be impossible.
I have to keep going.
I’m not sure what’s at the end of this road, but I’m going to find out.
I put my car back into drive and hit the gas. The tires move, but I don’t.
They spin in the mud with an angry whirling sound.
“Shit!” I scream as I hit the steering wheel again. “I need a goddamn
man!”
I’m a proud woman, but some things require a man. And pushing a car up
a mountain through the mud in the middle of a rainstorm is one of them.
I try again and again, sinking deeper into the mud with every slam of my
foot.
“Fuck!!!” I scream as I slam my hand onto the horn again. The
windshield wiper in front of me snaps and flies off. The thing wasn’t doing
much good against the onslaught of rain anyway. I pretty much have the
same visibility but without the scraping sound.
