.:Saved by a White Stretch Hummer
(Author’s note: This is a long and very unbelievable story… but I assure you every word is true even though if it were in a movie, I would roll my eyes and say it was ‘horribly contrived writing’ and that events like this would never happen in the real world… please read until the finish if you wouldn’t mind…)
