Chapter 1: Chapter 1
"I'll take the next flight out there, I promise," I said to my best friend Allison. "I'll be there in no time."
Allison looked at me with those puppy eyes of hers and said, "Don't make me remind you that you have to pass through customs when you land in San Francisco.You have to have your passport ready."
"I know," I said, "I know. I'll have it ready."
"And remember the weather in San Francisco is always changing. One day it rains, the next sun shines through. Be prepared for anything."
I nodded. "I will. I promise."
"Okay, now I need you to promise me something.”
I blinked. "Anything."
"I need you to promise me that you'll be careful when you drive in San Francisco. I M going to be watching you, and I don't want you to get hurt because you can't see the potholes before you hit them."
This was a serious threat. One that I took seriously.
