You go for a ride, express your happiness for them and return to your life as they speed off. Then the next day you find that you’re seeing your new friend’s car everywhere!! You’re at the gas station and there’s the car . . . there’s two more in traffic . . . and three more in the parking deck at work. Where did they all come from?
