Sighing and driving down the road, listening to the music pouring from the stereo, I smile as I run my hand through my hair.  Feeling the car suddenly stop and putter and stop, I furrow my eyebrows and pull the car to the side of the road.<br/><br/>"Sorry everyone...this car totally sucks...but it was the only way to get us to the game..."  Stepping out of the car, I feel a wind blowing around me, blowing my hair around my face as I wear my cheerleading uniform.  I feel stupid for not having changed at the school before we left...but oh well.<br/><br/>I was the youngest on the squad of cheerleaders but I had learned to figure out what was wrong with a car thanks to being raised by my father after my mother died.  Popping the hood of the car, I look down into it and sigh, shaking my head "Dammit...looks like we need a new alternator..."<br/><br/>Looking back at the car, I sigh again "Hey, Monique, I saw a garage just down the road...just about 10 minutes from here...come with me to see if there's anyone there?"
