On a hitch-hike to London, I got stuck at night in a quiet spot when a car with three lads pulled up. I got in. They drove around quiet back roads. I began to think I could be in trouble. They asked a few casual questions. I was open but careful not to betray my anxiety. Eventually, we arrived at exactly the same place. I got out. I wonder if with my long hair, not yet so common, they might have thought me a girl. I wonder what might have happened if I had been. Ending missing forever.

A well set up tale with an interesting hypothetical twist!

This certainly raises the question.
