Great read! Poor Yalie. You may have hurt his pride. Heh.
My car story: Bought a used Peugeot 104 when I was in my early 20s and working in Germany. I offered it when a bunch of friends wanted to drive to Liege, Belgium. From Stuttgart. In the dead of winter. Four adults in a tiny car.
Everything was fine until the drive home. Brakes totally failed. It was Sunday. No mechanics open. We’re all too broke for a hotel.
One guy therefore volunteered to drive us the last 250 miles with nothing but shifting gears as brakes. Emergency brake failed too.
Ugh, cars. I'm so sorry! What a weird thing for that dude to do - I'd also be furious. Someone hit and totaled my adorable red Honda Fit (the first new car I'd ever owned - I had two payments left!) and I cried. I still miss that car.
Yikes, what a bizarre car fate! I hope the new car and you will get along.💕
Veronica is so cute. We are looking for a kitten!🐈⬛ 💕

I have no idea how we survived.
The hubris of youth!
How do we ever survive?!

I saw a few used Fits for sale! It's a great car but too small for us I think
Total sympathy on your car. That's such a weird way for it to go! Also, I love your books so much!
