I also wondered if she may have previously suspected danger in her life but I soon doubted that theory as one would think to take extra precaution in that situation.
I'm not sure she would have taken extra precaution. She's a teenager, and likely feels (like a million other teens- my own daughter included) that she's invincible. She may be aware of all the dangers out there- might have had a close call or two of her own in the past- but she also would likely think she's the exception to the rule- the one it will never happen to, the one who will get away.
I scream from the rooftops- to the point my daughters roll their eyes every time they hear it- that yes, they're exceptional young women but no, they are NOT the exception. Maybe they get it, maybe they don't- but I know I was convinced of my invincibility at Abby's age, despite scary things happening all around me, every day.
It would be easy to get lost in a cell phone, texting away while walking home on a familiar path, on a beautiful day. JMO.
