MY WIFE SAID HER CAR WAS ACTING WEIRD—
SO I CHECKED AND FOUND A NAIL THE SIZE OF MY FINGER IN HER TIRE
Sasha mentioned her car “wobbled” on the freeway, so I checked it, expecting low tire pressure. Instead, I found a large nail wedged oddly in the back left tire, not like it was accidentally driven over. Sasha’s daily route avoids construction zones, making it suspicious. She recalled Dominic, a coworker, offering car help the prior week, claiming a “suspension issue.” His name later appeared on her phone, stirring unease. At the tire shop, the mechanic suggested the nail was hammered in, though he couldn’t confirm intent. Sasha noticed Dominic’s odd
comments about her car persisted, hinting at bitterness from past relationships. We checked office parking lot footage, spotting a hooded figure tampering with her tire. Confronting Dominic, he denied involvement, but quit abruptly after HR reviewed the footage. No further car issues occurred, but the incident taught us to trust instincts, communicate openly, and stay vigilant, even without full closure, to protect our safety and peace.
