Here’s where the image took me.
She sat in her car at night watching him walk alone in the rain, oblivious to the weather.
Obscured by a dark hoodie, he appeared to be in his late teens, tall and slim; there was a silent desperation about him. She had an urgent need to reach out….that heady combination of nurturing and desire.
She opened the passenger side window, offering him shelter from the rain and something to eat. Velvet-voiced, she said to get in the car and close the door. She smiled as he did what he was told.
She’d enjoy taking her time with this one.

A johnette or a predator, it is just as scary if it is a woman in this role. I pray he is still alive at dawn — and so is she!

Dear Nancy,
At first I thought perhaps she was his bio mom, but I see you had a more sinister plot in mind. Well written. Perfect song to accompany it.
Shalom,
