Karen nodded, looking again after the receding emergency lights.
"It was his hand, I guess. He was signaling, wasn't he?" Jay leaned against the car.

"There was that moment. You know, when everything goes slow - I thought - I don't know - I guess I thought I could stop maybe but then it was too wet and then I felt the impact." He slumped down into a squatting postion.
Karen just stared at a street lamp.
"It was so light. Like hitting a can or something." He looked at Karen and knew she wasn't listening. "I felt like it should have been something more."
