Mike and Larry watched all this silently from the back seat. From the smiles on their faces one could surmise that neither was sorely disappointed when Terrie was told to climb in back. The arrangement suited them just fine.
Heading south around sharp turns and through mountain passes, the Olds performed like a thoroughbred. Like a horse going to its home barn. Jimmy didn’t pamper the car as Jay had. No more checking the oil every hour or two. No more STP. Try to make it with what gas he had in the tank. All that was in his mind was getting away.
Sunup now. He was steadily increasing the distance between himself and his nightmare. Jay was surely dead, but Jimmy didn’t want to think about the man. Even so, he found it difficult to forget.
Visions cramped his muddled mind. Visions of Jay lying face down beside the car. How he had looked rolling him over and pulling him away. He’d pulled like a dead man. If so, whose fault was it? Wasn’t it Jay who had reached for his gun and come up firing?
Damn fool!
Where was Terrie now? Over and over in Jimmy’s mind he played out his actions. His lack of choice. He’d done it to save the girl from being raped by some old son of a bitch who had gonorrhea. Worse yet, they both might have been killed and buried on that damned mountain!
Did she have any idea about the fate that might have awaited her? Had Jay been serious about killing little Terrie? About killing them both? Jimmy felt as though the man would surely have been capable of killing. And now he was surely dead.
