Like alice tumbling down the rabbit hole,the glass breaking in slow motion the sound of silnce while rolling through air,the white painted center line of the road now over head,then the came the brutal sound of impact.as the car lay on its roof engine still running the darkness was all around,the seat belts had done there duty and kept them firmley in place,the lip stick from her clutch bag and all the other contence lay scatterd around along with the contence of the glove box,cds road map and how ironic a first aid kit,the end of this day was a lifetime away from where it had begun. In a wisper on the night air they heard the voices wisper the words"love forever or die together,choose" as if said by someone standing inches away there eyes now nursing small drops of blood could see no one.
The small village of drift population 5327 was east of the main city by 23.5 miles and 152 miles north west of the nearest coastline,it had a life and history all of its own surviving two world wars and various changes in the economy,in recent years drift had seen a lot of change,land sold property built investment made,it was now the "place to live" outside the main city suburbs.Veron street was the most sort after street in town,only 40 houses lined the 3/4 mile long street each drive host too only the newest and most expencive cars on the market. The palace as it was known by all in the town was owned by francis and jane Delta,the couple and there 2 children logan and sammy had lived in the house for over 15years, francis had designed veron street as a hands on working designer,in the deal he worked his magic and in his contract it was aggreed francis would get the sort after number 1 plot for the lenght of his stay with the company,smart on his count knowing that daily companies from all over the world would try and poach him away with no hessertation the company aggreed and on compleation francis then single moved in.
Jane had joined the company 2 years previous to francis,as a junior then working her way up she was now head off the accounts deparment,25 staff working under her orders and never a error or pay check astray the company valued her in high reguard. Francis and janes path never crossed as he was mainly based on site and she based in the company office in the city on the 14th floor it was by total chance they met. The company had decided that team building was the way forward and on a cold november morning all 500 staff of the company met at the company head quarters for a team building trip to the coast,all staff were given a number at random and told they must stay with the person whos number was numericley up from them for the whole weekend,there were sighs all round but the big speach given everyone accepted there fate and began to hunt out there higher number,francis being a tall 6'3 stood number in hand shouting" number 339 339 anybody 339" from behind him her heard her voice "340 accounts nerd 340 right here" jane often joked about her job saying she was one step away from a civil servant and could bore anyone to death with number talk in less than 5 minutes flat,as he span round knocking the guy to his left coffee into the air he saw her for the first time and knew he had just found the queen to his new palace.battling his way through he finally got to jane,her slim 5'9 frame her long brown hair tied up neatley in a bun,her deep blue eyes, her t shirt which red"im an accountant and yes theres two under this writing" made francis even more pleased he was 339.  |
