Damn, that was close.
She released the air filling her lungs and blinked her eyes several times to assure herself that she was alive. She had survived. However, her ordeal was far from over.
"Go!" She shouted to herself.
Instinctively, she pushed her foot on the pedal harder as her car sped off. She looked in the rearview mirror to see that no one was following her anymore.
The other car had to stop at the red light because a large truck crossed the street just in time for her to pass by. The truck had to make an emergency break, thinking it would hit her car, but by some miracle, she escaped by a hairline.
"Thank you." She said to her guardian angel as she quickly turned toward her destination.
