Strangers
I'm distracted, to say the least, and he's not wearing a helmet.
As if he knows what I'm thinking, he points up ahead, although I don't see what he's pointing at, and I sure as hell can't hear him over the noise of the bike and the wind. As we approach an intersection, and I use that term very loosely, he motions for me to take a left. I figure what the hell, I don't have a destination in mind anyhow, so I go left.
I follow his directions until we are in front of a small cabin perched on the upper end of Lake Keowee. He dismounts after I cut off the bike, leaving me sitting there, staring at someone's home.
