Never Looking Back

i cant think of anyhting to say so i'll exert-

I put the key in the ignition and listened as the car started up. At first i forgot why i had avoided this moment for so long but then i glanced at my leg and remembered exactly why. Even after remembering i didnt want to back down. For some reason when i had woke up this morning i had the longing to drive, to have control of the wheel again, to have the the freedom to go as i please. Why this was i'll never know but the feeling and longing was strong, so here i am sitting in the driver's seat after so many months feeling afraid, but not afraid enough to go back inside. Taking a deep breath i shifted into reverse and eased the car down the driveway. Then i shifted into drive and drove for miles never looking back.
