The black rubber rolls, she responds to my gentle touch, the cold steel shines like granite. The air vibrates, the heat rises, everything stops.
I hand over the keys and walk away. I left my baby in the hands of another. She looks folorn. standing there locked up in the cold.
He eyes her suspicously and promises she will be fine. Will he commit to her the way that I do? Or will she be just another to be inspected and paid for?
Later we sit. I stare at him, he stares at me as he tells me all of her indiscretions. I am shocked initialy. But he has bought her some new things. He gives me back the keys. I walk slowly away. Was she indiscrete while she was away my lovely girl?
Back under my gentle touch she purrs again. The air vibrates with heat and excitement. The rubber squeals.
I am happy again.
New tyres, new brake pads, new oil cooler, man cars are so expensive!
