It was a hot summer Sunday night and I was heading home from a week at my brother's cabin in the mountains. I liked going there to get away from city life and relax with no one around. It was not the easiest place to get to but was worth the 3 hour drive. I was only about 30 minutes in to my return trip when I heard a loud bang and I thought someone had shot at me with a rifle but it was only my right front tire blowing out.
I got out to inspect the damage and fortunately I had a flashlight because it was pitch black. There was no moonlight and it was a backwoods two lane farm to market road with no streetlights. I went to get my spare only to discover it was flat. I knew I was in big trouble as there were no houses nearby and no cell phone coverage up in that area. And, I had not seen another car on my way up or back down from the cabin.
I figured I had about an hour walk to reach any type civilization so I began my hike. After about 30 minutes of walking I finally saw the headlights of a car approaching from the opposite direction. I hoped it would stop and give me a ride even if it was heading up into the mountains.
I was waving my flashlight as the car approached and it sped on by, slowing down but not stopping. Once it got past me about 100 yards, I saw the brake lights come on and it backed up to where I was standing. Inside were 3 lovely young women, two in the front seat and one in the back. They appeared to be college age girls in late teens or early 20's. I was in my early 40's and was pleased that if a car had to stop, it would be my luck that it would contain 3 hot young looking ladies.
The driver rolled down the window and I explained my predicament. She rolled the window back up to discuss with her friends and then the back door opened for me to get in. They advised they were heading up to the driver's parent's cabin for the week but would get me to a gas station for assistance. I gladly accepted their invitation and hopped in. However, I was not expecting what was to follow.
