Chapter 2 The encounter

Sandra 

You have got to be kidding me, this just can't happen right now, i slammed my hands on the wheel and than drop my head on my hands. I can't believe my car decided that today of all days, would be the day that he died on me. I so could not afford to be late and on top of that have to come up with the money to repair this stupid car. But i need it to get around, so i have no choice but where would i find a reliable auto repair shop right about now? I pulled my phone out of my bag and searched my contacts on who to call. I know i have to call one of my brothers, but i know they will also nag, because they told me i should let that car looked after. The most likely one i could call and i know he would pick is Sean. So i look at his number, decided to put my big girls pants on and call him. 

By the third ring he picks up "Hey Sis, what's up?", " Hey Sean you would never guess what happened to me", " No let me guess, that piece of crap car died on you?, How many times did we not tell you to get it fix Sandra". I sigh because i know he is right, "you know i could not afford it Sean". "Yeah yeah i know, that's why we told you we would help you out, but you being all stubborn didn't want our help. So where are you right now? I know a guy who could help you out." 

I was glad he wasn't making it harder for me, but i know this would be the last time he talked about it. I am sure he would call John to tell him what happened and he would call me back. I love my brothers but sometimes they drive me crazy. That's why i don't like to tell them stuff, after my break up, they were all up in my business. But who can blame them, they never like my ex anyhow. Why was i so stubborn to believe that i loved him?  I told him where i was and he said he would call me back in ten minutes, he is going to make a call to the garage. 

Marc

I hear the telephone ring a couple of times, but i can't seem to find the damn thing. Shirley is home sick for a couple of days already and this place is already running wild. I just don't know how she does it. Because the constant ringing is driving me crazy. "Rudy's garage how may i help you?" I thought i here a snicker when i heard a familiar face ask me, "Hey Marc since when do you have phone duty" I know that voice from any where, " don't ask man, Shirley is home sick so i have to man the ship" You talk like she owns the place he replies. " Believe me Sean, sometimes it looks like it, especially when she is barking out orders. So how can i help you today?" 

"Yeah about that i was calling if you could help me out, my sister broke down in that crappy car of her and i thought you could tow her to your garage and check what is wrong with it?" "That's not a problem, i  so need to get out of this place i can go and pick it up myself" He gave me the adres and what car i should be looking for and a description of his sister.  After i hung up i took the keys to the tow truck and yelled at the boys that i was heading out. They made all kind of funny remarks because they know i was already climbing the walls with frustration.  

I drive off not knowing that my life will be changing completely.
