My cousin likes to play exciting
games
Chapter 1
My cousin, Tiffany, is all about getting her,
kicks, so she decided to hitchhike through the
middle of nowhere.
She even started unbuttoning her shirt,
suggesting she could pay for the ride in, you
know, another way.
I tried to tell her not to be a fool, that the
rescue squad was on its way.
Tiffany just rolled her eyes at me, like I was
some kind of square.
“Girl, if I don’t live a little now, I’ll be totally
boring back in the city!” she sneered.
“We’re in the freakin‘ desert, who’s gonna know
<
8:32
what I do? Relax!”
Since I wasn’t playing along, she grabbed a couple of tank tops and hopped in the truck.
Later, Tiffany went off the grid near the border, and her folks had to drop some serious cash to
get her back.
She came back a shell of herself, totally
messed up, and blamed it all on me.
“If you’d just offered the driver a measly eight
grand, I wouldn’t have been sold to those
traffickers!” she screamed.
“I might be damaged goods, but you deserve to
die!”
Her parents, my aunt and uncle, were so pissed
that they dragged me out to the desert and left
me for the coyotes.

Then I woke up, back when she was flagging
down that truck.
