Only Forward
Chapter Fifteen
The old man nodded derisively. His yellowed t-shirt, a sleeveless wifebeater, cast sharp contrast with his car’s opulence but also with his obvious age.

“Just move along. Silence! Move! Move! Look forward. Follow commands. Help me watch out for you. Go. Go quickly! Don’t slow the line! Be wise. Be intelligent! Move! Help me help you. Stay silent. Just go. Look forward. Move! Stay in line! Quietly! Quickly! Look forward only. Move! Believe me! Only forward. Just go.”
