Close Shave

People, for the sake of Fio's nerves and your own lives, please do not stride up the road with music in your ears.

Fiorella burst out of her driveway yesterday morning, quickly looked both ways, and started to swing onto the road. a narrow two-lane affair that doesn't even have a yellow stripe down the middle.  Oops--she missed something, an older woman who might have been dressed in camouflage for all that Fio had seen her.  Eyes focused straight ahead and ears plugged with a iPod buds, she never did see Fio.

This one got by unscathed, but what about the next one?
