Jack and Dustin were arguing over a girl. Jack was driving. He didn't see the man walking in the road until it was too late.
They were arguing over Ashley. Jack had always thought she had a pretty face--thin, arching eyebrows, a proud, slightly upturned nose, a narrow chin. She had dated Dustin in college for six months, until he got possessive and she got restless. Now, maybe she was interested in Jack.
But Dustin insisted, "She'll give me another chance. Someday."
"Not according to her," Jack said.
They drove along a dark and twisted path through the woods. Jack turned his eyes back to the road and caught a blurry glimpse of a man stumbling in the headlights. Jack swerved, the tires jumped a rut, and the left front side of the car smashed into a tree.
Jack watched as the steering column surged forward like an ocean wave and crushed his chest. Dustin wasn't wearing a seatbelt. He flew face-first through the windshield, rolled heavily across the hood, and tumbled off onto the ground.
