Way to go girl! You did the right thing! NEVER let anyone intimidate you into a vehicle or situation like that. It's OK to be scared, but you must not go quietly! This young girl was smart. Scream, kick, claw, punch, gouge an eye out. Whatever it takes. Most pedophiles/sexual deviants are cowards and will run the moment a victim aggressively fights back! You may only get one chance to save your life, take it!
