I burst out laughing, he chuckles politely and pulls over to the curb.
Thank you for not killing me! I shout as I grab my bag from the trunk.

And then?
I let her use my phone.
And then?
She still couldn't find her friends.
So then?
I did the only thing I could think of
Which was?
I dropped her off at a Tim Horton's and wished her luck.
