Robwas stuck in a traffic jam. He hated traffic jams - especially when they were on a motorway! Motorways were meant to be fast!As he peered out the window and through the torrential rain, he spotted something moving on the hard shoulder. He frowned as the shape of a woman of about5 yearsyounger than him emerged from the rain clutching her head. Rob quickly wound down the window and waved at the woman, who came over. "Are you OK there?!" he shouted through the rain, "Its not safe there! Are you hitchhiking? I'll give you a lift! Get in!" The woman looked grateful, said something he couldn't hear through the rain and took hold of the passenger door handle. As she got into the car Rob stared at her in amazement - she had blood streaming from her head. He let her get settled before asking her again what was wrong and what she was doing. The woman looked troubled and told him that she couldn't remember. She gestured to her head "I think I must have fallen - my head hurts and I cant remember what I'm doing!". Rob assured her he would take her to a hospital, and gave her a clean hanky to hold to her head. It had stopped bleeding alot - and Rob suspected the rain had made the wound look far worse than it was. All the same he took her to the nearest hospital. On the way there he asked her questions to keep her awake as he suspected she may have concussion. "Does your husband know you are here?" he asked after noticing a ring on her finger. "No" came the reply. "I don't have a husband...I think I'm dating someone though- I cant remember!". At the hospital Rob wanted to come in with her to make sure shes OK, but only family were allowed. "Shes my girlfriend" he lied, giving her a sideways glance as he was let into her ward. "Girlfriend?!" she laughed as the nurse left them. Rob looked embarrassed. " I wanted to come in and make sure you re ok!". She smiled and took hold of his hand "I wouldn't mind really being your girlfriend!" she said smiling at him "you re very kind!". Suddenly a furious looking man burst into the ward swearing at a scared looking nurse. "Im her husband!" he was shouting.He saw Rob holding the woman's hand and stared at them looking amazed, and then even more furious than before. Rob hurriedly let go as a nurse told him he had to leave. Rob looked confused, and with one last glace at the woman he waited in the waiting room. A few hours later the same nurse came back to talk to him. She told him that the woman had regained her memory, and the reason she had been walking bloody on the motorway was because her husband had hit her and kicked her out of the car. Rob satthere shocked, turned and walked back into the ward.
