What I want to do now is seize my hand from her hold, bundle her into one of these cars and send her away to her parents' house, but I have a plan and I can't ruin it by losing my temper now. "What now?" I ask, trying to keep my voice low. She pouts her lips as if she were a child and brings her face closer to mine. From my peripheral view,
