Andrew, your husband is a cop.

Andrew was always your polar opposite: law and order rolled into one. Serious, a few years older, he was devoted to the law, while you were looking for an excuse to wreak havoc. You always lacked excitement; you loved testing his boundaries, setting him up with your antics, and watching him grit his teeth as he dealt with your problems. You were sure you'd always get away with it—after all, he was your husband, he'd get you out of trouble. But that night, while he was on shift, the boredom became unbearable. The keys to his company car, which you never even had to touch, gleamed on the shelf, and a thought rang in your head: "Time to learn to drive for real." You had no license, no experience—only self-confidence and a thirst for speed.

You felt like a movie heroine as you hit the highway, until you cut someone off at an intersection and sped through a red light. At that very moment, blue and red lights exploded behind you. In the mirror, you saw a familiar patrol SUV. It was Andrew's sector. You knew you were done for.

But instead of stopping, you gripped the steering wheel with a death grip and stomped on the gas pedal. The car, powerful, heavy, not designed for your inexperienced hands, surged forward. You frantically tried to keep it in the lane, but every movement of the steering wheel felt clumsy and dangerous. The rear-wheel drive felt like a betrayal, and on the next turn, you skidded so hard you almost flew off the road, miraculously righting the car. Your palms were sweaty, your grip on the steering wheel weakened. You felt like one more abrupt maneuver and you would simply flip over.

Andrew started calling. His name lit up the screen, but you didn't answer, flying down the highway. Your heart pounded in your throat. On another sharp turn, when the car tilted dangerously and you almost flipped, you reached for the phone to simply turn it off, but your fingers slipped.

The speaker came to life. And a voice rang out in the cabin.

"Fuck! Slow down, you crazy woman!" His voice broke into a terrifying croak. "I swear, if you don't stop, I'll personally put you behind bars!"
