Chapter 10
"So, what do we do now?" Sara asks, slumping into her seat.
"I'm not sure. Where's the map? Maybe we could walk to somewhere."
Sara hands Catherine the map from the glovebox. Catherine looks at it quickly before folding it back up and heads it back.
"We're at least 50 miles to Vegas and there's no towns on the map, so I don't know if there is anything out here, wherever here actually is."
Sara unfolds the map and studies it intently.
"So we're here right," Sara says, pointing at a spot on the map. She slides her finger half an inch to the northeast. "If I remember correctly, there's a town here with a diner and a one-pump gas station. If we start walking now right across the desert, we could be there in about an hour or so. Unless you wanna sit here and wait," Sara challenges.
Giving her a sly grin, Catherine nods and exits the truck. Walking around to the other side, she opens the door and holds her hand out for Sara to take. Holding hands, the women set off across the hot sand in hopes of finding this town. Catherine idly wonders if the diner had good food.
