Guardian On The Road 03
The woman got into the front seat with mom and I just watched intently, waiting and waiting. They were jabbering to each other a lot and I was starting to get irritated that I could not pick up even a word of what they were saying. My mom started driving in a direction I was not familiar with. It seemed to me we were getting farther and farther away from our direction of home. Then it dawned on me, the gas! We were almost on empty. I brought this to mom’s attention and she looked a little disturbed too. She said for me not to worry, she would dig through her pennies if she had to get us home. Now please remember, this German women spoke no English. Well I was still worried, but I knew mom always took good care of us so I tried to relax.
We drove quite a ways on the freeway then pulled off onto an exit neither of us was familiar with at all. This woman directed her to an area we never knew of. When we finally reached this woman’s home I was happy to know she would be exiting the car and we could just go home. She stepped out of the car and said something to my mother. Then she started walking up the walkway to the door of her quaint looking home. I said, "Let's go mom". But mom told me the woman had asked her to wait to make sure she could get in.

偶们沿着高速公路开了很久,然后从一个偶俩都不熟的出口下了高速路 .那女人把偶们引到了一个偶们完全不知道的地区 .偶们终于到了她家,偶很兴奋她终于要下车而偶们可以回家了 .她下车和妈妈说了点什么 .然后她沿着人行道向她那看起来有点希奇的屋子走去 .偶说:“妈,偶们走吧 .”但妈妈说那个女人要她等一下,确保她能平安得进门 .
