I should have looked back more often.
I don't know where I lost her. She was there five minutes ago. And now she's gone.
Did she get stuck at a light, maybe miss a turn? I told her to follow me. It should have been easy. There isn't even any traffic going this way. Maybe I should have gone slower? I don't know.
What do I do now? Wait? Go back? But where to? Better to keep going. She'll make her own way, I guess. Maybe ask someone for directions. Though it's late, and there's no one on the streets.
It can't be helped, I suppose. I keep glancing in the rear view, hoping to see her headlights, hoping it's all a mistake and she's still coming up behind.

Good one. Can empathize with your your helplessness.
This comes as I think about the first comment; did she deliberately take a turn somewhere? Or would you rather not know; and just hope she'd somehow show up?
I suppose the gods never meant it – for Eurydice to be brought back and live happily ever after. Maybe they did it because they liked the sad songs better. After all the gods can be quite selfish.
