[00:22.37]Spooky Pursuing Motorists
[00:32.43]追赶我的开车幽灵
[00:43.23]I screamed myself and found a sudden acrobatic ability in me
[00:48.57]when I scaled a metal fence taller
[00:50.91]than myself into my own street,
[00:53.48]and within seconds was in my house
[00:56.30]and was frantically 1 locking the door behind me.
[01:00.34]I've never run so fast in my life.
[01:03.70]On the inside of my doorway 2,
[01:05.36]in darkness, it took me a while
[01:07.50]before I could get my breath back
[01:10.27]or even move away from the doorway.
[01:12.85]I was exhausted 3 after my flight.
[01:15.68]Perhaps it was a good thing
[01:17.96]as the house lights remained off
[01:20.05]until the car had passed away
[01:21.84]into the distance and was gone;
[01:24.96]maybe looking for me in another street
[01:28.00](I heard the engine noise disappear, much to my relief.
[01:32.20]I almost cried with the relief!).
[01:34.77]I waited for what seemed like an eternity 4,
[01:38.45]a million thoughts racing 5 through my mind,
[01:41.51]and then without turning on the lights
[01:43.55]moved to the phone and called my girlfriend.
[01:46.68]She was fine, just angry that I had woken her up.
[01:51.36]Her attitude changed when I told her what had happened.
[01:55.21]We stayed on the phone to each other for hours and hours
[01:58.72]until the sun's rays shone through the windows,
[02:02.29]and outside we could both hear the hustle 6 and bustle 7
[02:05.36]of daily town life starting up around us.
[02:10.21]I guess we just wanted to know that each other were ok.
[02:14.27]She asked me to phone the police, but I decided 8 against it.
[02:18.80]What did I have to go on?
[02:21.08]I couldn't describe my pursuers,
[02:23.95]or the model of car they were in.
[02:27.06]It was hopeless.
[02:28.80]She then reminded me of something
[02:31.11]which happened a few months ago.
[02:34.25]A teenage lad was seen being pulled into a white car
[02:38.35]and was never seen again.
[02:40.77]Neither the motorists involved nor their car were ever found.
[02:45.42]The witnesses' description perfectly 9 matches
[02:49.10]that of the car that chased me all over town.
