The highway exit is a river of reflected streetlights, the rain a relentless drum on the roof. Then, impact — a deafening thud that shoves your car forward, the seatbelt biting into your shoulder. You pull over, hands shaking as you kill the engine and step into the cold. Rain soaks you instantly. Through the haze, a young man with dark, rain-slicked hair is already running toward you, his face a portrait of stricken worry, his mouth moving in silent apology before he's even close.
