Relishing The Day
When I step into the taxi, what happens next is something I will never forget…
It is warm so I loosen the annoying necktie and use my handkerchief to wipe the sweat from my brow.
I gaze out the window at the immense buildings relishing my first time in Manhattan. Tired from the flight, I rest my eyes. There is time before we reach the office building.
A loud honk and screeching tires startle me. Coming toward us is a large white truck.
As I’m loaded onto the ambulance in a stretcher, fading, my handkerchief lays torn on the ground.
