Pete's Story

Suddenly Pete fell silent.

"That man who likes you is following us." He said as he looked out the passenger window of Jane's blue Corolla. The image of the man's face surfaced in her mind.

"Yes, that man."

"Perhaps it's just a coincidence, Pete." Jane said it mostly to calm herself.

"No. He wants to...he's thinking bad thoughts."

Jane's skin went clammy. She was, at this point, completely convinced that Pete could read minds. She wondered if she should ask Pete what kinds of thoughts.

"I said! Bad thoughts! He wants to hurt you! He wants you to cry! He wants..." Pete began to cry into his hands. What he was saying now had put her into a cold sweat and she could feel the vinyl of the steering wheel become slippery beneath her hands. She wasn't sure what to do.
