Still blocks from the hotel, Aurora drove down the scenic one-way street and thought nothing of checking for traffic approaching the stop signs. Carmen said the ball gown made the blue in Aurora’s eyes dance, and Derek would think she was the most beautiful girl at the ceremony. Laughing, and singing off key to an old country song on the radio, they headed back to their hotel after an exhaustive but successful search for the perfect dress. They enjoyed a perfect girls’ weekend– eating more than normal, staying out late and shopping to excess for Aurora’s upcoming high school graduation. Normally Carmen would drive, as she attended the nearby University, but tonight she let her younger sister, Aurora, take the wheel. ***Īurora drove through the pounding rain, with her momma in the passenger seat, and Carmen behind her. Gasps and inaudible sounds came from the onlookers who stood around drenched yet watching. In the distance, sirens wailed, getting louder on approach.
