Avery didn’t bother going back to the fraternity house after he’d left the store. Instead, he went over to talk to Dexter in an attempt to calm him down and get Gina out of trouble. But even as he stepped out of his car into the driveway, he regretted it. An earsplitting pop erupted from inside Dexter’s residence, and the living room window exploded. A second pop came from right behind him. Then his heart sank. His front right tire was losing pressure at a pound per second.
Then he relaxed. He remembered that he had his cellphone with him. He could just call a tow truck to help him out.
