The Trouble With Cars
Jess stepped out of her car and kicked a wheel in frustration. “Dumb, rotten, car…” she muttered. While she had been driving the car had run out of gas. She dialed a tow truck. She watched as her car was towed away.
. . .
Kaitlyn was a dancer. She was at dance practice. She glanced at the clock until finally, Ms. Claire called, “See you later boys and girls, remember to practice your-” but Kaitlyn was already out the door. She got in her green car and started to drive. Her car started to click, then shut down. Kaitlyn jumped up. “No. Nononononono.” She called a tow truck then called her friend Cally. “You will not BELIEVE what just happened, I was, like, driving, and my car just, like, stopped…”
. . .
Cally was a swimmer. She was in the pool when her friend Kaitlyn called. She hopped out of the water, dried off, and walked to her car while listening to Kaitlyn complain about her car. “It was most likely your engine. It must have a major setback with the gears and the fuel, you will probably have to do multiple things to repair it-” I told her. “Wait, what? Can you repeat that, uh, with easier language?” I sighed. “Your engine broke, you have to pay for a new one to be installed.” I explained.
“Gotcha.”
