Episode 374: Opportunity Everywhere

On her way to the city Terrastina sees a line of cars stopped on the road ahead. She slows down. Rocks and mud from a fresh slide blocks the road. She stops the car and gets out. Other drivers stand at the slide. It just happened, one of them says. Is anyone hurt? asks Terrastina. No, says another driver, there wasn’t anyone under it. Someone takes out a cell phone and calls the police. It begins raining. Everyone except Terrastina gets back in their cars. She cannot stop looking at the slide. The mud is a startling deep red.
