A Helpful Stranger
It was a dark still night. Mindy Camden never liked driving at night but between paying the bills and buying groceries she could not afford to argue with shifts. Now Mindy didn't have much money. She had enough to pay rent, buy groceries and support herself, But she drove a cheap little car that allways seemed to break down and lived in a trailer that looked pretty sad. Still, she made do with what she had and allways kept hope that one day she would have a better life.
As Mindy was driving Home she heard the familiar clicking of the engine which meant the car was going to break down. Now this was easy to fix but it was late and she was in a dangerous part of town. So Mindy sat there and waited for almost an hour worrying about what might happen to her. For it was almost 11:00 pm and the gangs and pickpockets would be out soon. Just as Mindy was about to give up She heard a truck becoming nearer and nearer

*That is all I have written down, though I do recall how the story ends. Let's just say the helpful stranger turns out to be not so helpful and more murdererish (if you hadn't already guessed that) I was apparently also considering the title "Cries of Help" as it is scribbled at the top of the page. I think I made the right choice.
