I was afraid of getting stranded on the street, so I went back home

Description: I’m in a hurry and get into the car. i try to start it but it’s difficult, i pump and pump the gas pedal, the car coughs, sputters, stalls, and won’t run. still, i try to leave with it, but it keeps stalling. i went anyway, but i regretted it halfway when it kept failing. i knew it was going to leave me stranded, so i decided to turn back, and it still stalled a few more times on the way. i was very nervous.
