My Beloved Truck

Yesterday while I was at work a tragedy struck and my beloved Truck was hurt, technically my moms beloved truck, but for the sake of the story its my beloved truck. I was working on doing sweeps around the store, when a page came over the intercom calling the owner of a Silver Toyota Tacoma to come to the front of the store, they said the license plate number but it didn't say the state and I don't have the number memorized at all so I continued sweeping thinking that it could have been another Silver Toyota Tacoma, but less then a minute later they came on and said attention employees will the owner of the Toyota Tacoma go out to the parking lot, thats when I realized they were probably calling for me, so I worked my way to the front of the store and asked what the owner of the Toyota Tacoma was supposed to do, and everyones face was full of sympathy, and I had no clue why... until they were walking me out to the parking lot where I had parked earlier in the morning without a second thought. When I saw my Truck, I freaked out, there was no handling this calmly from my part so I called my mom who had just happened to be in town this weekend and hadn't left yet to come to my work because the truck was totaled... I'm lucky she was in town and knows how to be calm in situations like that.

It turns out that as one of the customers was leaving she passed out and hit the gas, somehow causing her to go plowing into the employee parking lot and hitting 5 cars, three of which weren't to terribly damaged, but pretty damaged, and two that just didn't look good period... one of which being my truck and another truck. We don't know how extensive the damage is on my truck yet but will be finding out sometime today... I hope they can fix it because I want my Truck back.
