It was a very rainy and dark night when Flim Flim Flam had to drive all day and all night without a break. His brother was sick, and so he’d been holding the wheel for a dozen hours.
He was ever so tired. So tired that he kept drifting in and out of darkness, as he went down the lonely lanes and through the tired little hamlets. He kept drifting in and out of sleep while trying to keep his hooves on the wheel.
He never saw the corner, in the driving rain.
He never saw her step into the street.
