He could taste its saltiness on his lips. He was trying to wipe it away but it still kept falling. He tried to break the glass on the door with his elbow, but he only hurt his elbow, for the glass was much harder and stronger than his elbow. One more bend; just one more bend and they would be on a head on collision. He was now in such a state of fear that he almost couldn’t move a muscle.
