so I'm driving home from my father's house. (My parents are divorced but I don't mind, means to of every holiday! XD) My sister is in the seat beside me and we took my car, we named her Scout because she's kind of a boyish looking car but you know it's still a girl. She'd been acting funny lately, engine light on, hesitating to go when i put my foot on the gas and such; but, i go around a turn and all of a sudden out of nowhere she starts rumbling!
I freak out, not knowing what to think and scared almost shitless I take her off to the side of the road and try to see if she'll come out of the noise. After a couple of times reving her up in park, she doesn't. I flip out. Dani, my sister and the responsible one calls our mom.
I go for a walk down the road to see if I hit anything and to cool off because of how upset I am. I end up calling my girlfriend to tell her happened.
David, my stepfather shows up and tells me to start the car so I do. The noise continuing David says the engine is fine but it's the exhaust. Part of the piping to the muffler broke off, so it was louder but she was fine.
"Looks like she wanted to be a racecar." Dani says.
I can almost hear my car asking me if she can.
No, no you can't i say to myself. I drive home and each time she starts up, it's a back massage.
She's SO gonna get it. . .
