Where are you going, where have you been?

   This story was really weird and creepy. It was realistic and I felt really mad at the girl for acting the way she did. I understand she was scared and that this would have been some peoples reaction but I would have acted more sensibly. I would have closed and locked the door. Then I would have called the police while keeping my eye out for the man. If he got in I would have, if I thought I could take him, gone to the kitchen and grab a knife or some weapon and take him down or, if he were way bigger and stronger looking then me, flung something at him to slow him down, then run out the back door of the house and run towards another person's house. I know it was probably at least a mile from her house to somebody else's house but still I would have just kept going and if I saw the man's car coming after me I would try to hide while still making my way towards safety. After all the man was somewhat drunk and that would have given me an advantage over eluding and/or fighting him. I just think the girl should have at least tried somewhat to keep herself together and put up a fight. Why did she have to go and give herself up so easily when she stood a pretty good chance of saving herself? Other then size and strength possibly I don't see that the guy posed that much of a threat to her. These are all just my thoughts on the situation.
