I'm very sure that many of you who are reading this
are tired of vanishing hitchhiker stories, but I have to
share this.
My grandma (or Baba) swears this
happened, and she's very religious and doesn't lie.
You see, my Baba was born in Slovakia. Her mother
died in childbirth. This story happened a few weeks
later.
My Grandpa was driving his carriage home from
church. On the way home, he'd always pass a
cemetery. That day, when he looked at the cemetery,
he was shocked to see a women holding something
that looked like a baby in her arms.
My Grandpa called out to her and asked her if she
needed a ride. She nodded and stepped into the
carriage. My Grandpa noticed that she was wearing a
cloak and he couldn't see her face. She said her home
was over a hill.
When they began to up the hill, the horses started
going slower. Soon, it seemed like the horses where
struggling considerably to get up the hill. It was almost
like they were dragging something extremely heavy.
My Grandpa turned around to ask the woman what
she thought was going on, and was shocked to see
that there was nothing there, only a wet spot on the
seat.
Right then the horses returned to normal speed and
started walking home as if nothing had happened.
That story might have been a bit cliche, but I liked it!
THE CAR
This story did not happen to me, but to a friend of mine,
who will remain anonymous.
When my friend was in high school, there was no bus system connected
to her school, so, every day, she was forced to take a public bus to
and from school every day.
One day, she was late for her regular bus, and was forced to take a
later bus to a part of town she didn't know very well.
She got off the bus, and saw that she had no idea where she was. She
began walking in any random direction, hoping that she would eventually
get somewhere. After a while of getting nowhere, she desperately began
to pray to her guardian angel to show her some sign of where she should
go.
Suddenly, she saw a white car driving down the street. She had not seen
or heard anything like a car come down the street beforehand. On a
hunch, she began to follow it. She turned to see who was driving, but
the windows were tinted, so it was impossible to see.
Eventually, the car led her into a part of town she knew very well and
was able to get home from there. Immediately after she recognized the
place, the car sped away, and she hasn't seen it since.
Was this her guardian angel answering her prayer?
