The Two Rides Home.

It all started when I gave birth to my second child. My mother in law took us home from the hospital while helped her son and I with the baby. Right then from the drive home, I knew I wanted her car, a 2012 Equinox.Tthe drive was smooth and it was a safe ride home for us and the new born baby.
Months went by and I would constantly think about how I wanted to get rid of my car and buy hers. Eventually I was able to get rid of my car and buy my spouse a car he had always wanted, basically a car to mess around with. So I took over his 2014 truck.
Although I loved the truck I still wanted to buy the Equinox and could not stop thinking about that first ride home.
Eventually, I was in my ride home but this time in the truck, leaving my grandmas to go home to the family. Someone ran a stop sign and slammed in to me. The truck was dented and the tire was ruined but me, I was fine. The truck was lifted high, so the small car that hit me didn’t even reach me, thank God. However, due to the loss of our truck, my mother in law gave us her Equinox!!
It has been a year now and I am still happily driving that same Equinox. What a twisted story, I know, but when that door closed and we lost the truck, another one opened. Thank you!
