I really hated giving up the car.....it was the hardest thing to lose, my navy Mercedes with the Bose sound system. But maybe, someday, I would find a way to get another one.
I left it at the long-term lot in the Charlotte airport and went over to pick up my rental car. A black Camry, nice but not.....well, best to just forget. I drove the Camry over to the Benz and transferred what I had packed from my old life into the trunk. I drove out of the lot and headed west.
My new name was Samantha Roberts. I was no longer Mrs. Summer Price. The internet had provided me with a contact for ID and credit cards in my new name. Only you knew who I was now and where I was going. You had given me the instructions and helped me determine exactly where I would be safe, where no one would find me....only you.
It was a holiday weekend, Labor day or one of those 3-day weekends, I can't remember which.... The traffic was heavy on the Interstate until I reached the two lane road that would eventually take me to the city in the Mid-West. I drove all day, stopping only when I had to. I knew I had to disappear in a hurry for several reasons. I had been pretty greedy at the bank on Friday...withdrawing 99% of our checking and savings accounts. I had left him with the house, the cars and all his investments, so I knew he would survive. I had also maxed out all the joint credit cards in cash advances! I was carrying a suitcase FULL of money!
After 10 hours behind the wheel I knew I had to stop, even though I was only another 6 hours from my destination. I checked-in at a small motel, requesting a quiet room in the back. I unloaded my bags, showered, and called you.
"Hi, love." I whispered when you answered.
"Sheri...love, where are you? Is everything ok? Are you?" you sounded worried, so concerned.
"I'm fine, I'm in a little town in Ohio. Everything went just as we planned. I stopped to sleep for awhile and to let you know I'm ok." I smothered a yawn, and stretched out across the bed.
"I've been thinking about you all day," you still sounded worried. "I wish I was there with you now."
"You are," I sighed, rubbing my breasts, remembering the last time we had been together. I was already wet just thinking of you, feeling you inside me. "I can't wait until tomorrow."
"Are you hot, love? Are you hot for me?" you were smiling, I could hear it in your voice.
