“Thanks cuz, but no, I’m gonna head back up to the city, I got some plans.”
“Oh, darn. Well, that’s alright, we’ll see you next week.”
As he headed north, he drove a little faster than usual. Then his phone made a sudden noise. It still surprised him months later and he was starting to hate that thing. He looked at the message, and after a pause, he tried to put the shifter into neutral. Out of his control, it slipped and jammed into reverse. The car came to a grinding and screeching halt. He woke up.
He had dreams like that all the time. He didn’t care about what they meant anymore, and he didn’t feel like going down south to work, but he needed the money and he had some plans later so it was fine. He got in the car and drove a little faster than usual.
