And it was in a dark part of the street. There was like a tree covering the lights. I hate that you have to worry about this. Yeah, you shouldn't have to worry about that at all. So she hesitated for a few seconds and was like, maybe I should find something better. But she was like, whatever. She really wanted to go in and take a shower. Yeah, you just want to go to your house. Yeah.

So she pulled in the spot, put her car into park. She said later, I had just turned off the engine and flicked off the headlights. It was so routine. I did it all in one swift movement. Before opening the driver's side door, she reached over to the passenger seat to gather up a pile of clean laundry, and she suddenly felt a gust of warm air rush into the car as somebody opened the door. Holy shit.

She looked up just in time to see what she described as a scrawny, tallish young man with light blonde hair just push his head into her car. No. She also noticed a long, thin knife in his hand. I hate this. He immediately put the blade up to her throat and said, move over or I'll kill you. And she said his voice was quiet and controlled.

She had never seen him before, but he seemed to know exactly what he was doing. So she just, without thinking, slid over to the passenger seat and he got in behind the wheel. That's horrifying. Which I feel like she did the best thing you could in that situation. You have to try to be as calm as possible. What are you supposed to do? He's got a knife to your throat. I don't know what I would do.

I don't either. So as he drove he kept the knife close on the seat next to him close to the door. He fumbled with the dashboard trying to find the control for the lights and then asked her how to turn them on and told her don't worry I don't want to hurt you I just want to use your car for about an hour.

I'd be like, I'm not saying I would do this. I'm saying like when he says something like that, you just want to be like, then take the car. Yeah, like why do I have to be in the car?

Like why do I have to be here? You can just take it. You can just have it. You can take it for more than an hour. She basically said that. I was going to say, I'm sure she was just like, you can take this. Yeah, eventually she said that. But when he said it, she was so confused and also completely terrified. This is a horrifying situation. I can't even fathom your brain working in that situation.

No way. So she just didn't say anything. She was just sitting there like stunned. And she contemplated opening the passenger door and jumping out, but she said she felt strangely immobilized and just couldn't bring herself to do or say anything. Of course. Now, they hadn't been driving long when he broke the silence and said, you live in number one, don't you? So he knew exactly where she lived.

What the fuck? And she said it was less of a question than a statement. Like he was clearly letting her know that he'd been watching her. Like, oh, I know you live here. Knew exactly where she lived. That's horrifying. He asked what her name was. And thinking on her feet, she told him her name was Susan. She didn't give him her real name. Even that. I don't know that I would think to do that.

I don't think I would think to do that. I really don't.
