Chapter Thirty-Six: Stranded
A Melina Story

It was pouring rain by the buckets. A furious Melina Perez tried starting up her car. But after so long, it still wasn't working. It was a dark night and she was beginning to become paranoid. All she wanted to do was get home to her boyfriend Johnny.

Suddenly, she saw a person with a hockey mask on in the rear-view mirror. Melina freaked and squealed out of fright.

In the back, her ten-year-old son took it off and revealed himself. "Mom, can we hurry up? We're going to be late for the soccer game."

Melina manged to regain her breath. "I know honey, I'm trying to get there."
