The cab of the truck was caught in the headlights of Angie’s car and Mel could see that an old lady with gray hair was driving, a younger man was in the middle, and sitting shotgun was an old man. Mel at once recognized the two oldsters as the Hargraves. She raced to the edge of the terrace, half-afraid the old lady was going to ram Angie down the side of the mountain. But Mrs. Hargrave turned the wheel hard to the right and missed Angie by a breath. Then she rolled down her window and yelled, “Take the house, you parasites, but you’ll never take us alive!” Mr. Hargrave shot them a rude hand gesture as the moving truck rumbled down the drive and away. Angie drove her car slowly forward. She parked it, got out, and sat on the ground. Mel rushed over and handed her a Cherry Bomb Cupcake. “Thanks,” Angie said. Her fingers were shaking, but she managed to peel the paper off and take a bite. “I thought that crazy old bat was going to send me to the big bakery beyond.” Mel sat down beside her.
