In an office building, a group of people are working
to fill their papers. A thirtysomething man named Alex F.
Jones enters the scene.
“Hey what do you guys doing?” Alex asked.
“We filing out papers,” Michael said.
“For what?”
“For our boss to see them.”
“Oh okay. You guys wanna come to the super bowl
with me?”
“No, I’ll watch at home,” Michael said.
“Me too,” Julie said.
“Me three,” Jenny said.
“Okay,” Alex said. “Suit yourself.” Alex begins to walkout of the secene.
They’re still filling out papers.
“How many papers do we gotta fil?” Michael asked
Julie and Jenny.
“100,” Jenny said.
“A hundred,” Michael said as he turns around.“Yeah a hundred.” She still doing her stuff.
Michael can’t believe it. “Wow,” he said. He
continues to fil up papers.
Alex has a best friend, Kenny. They have a plan to go
to the Super Bowl. They already buy tickets, booked a
plane trip, and booked a room from the New York hotel.
Alex supports the New York team.
In the hallway, Alex is walking toward Kenny, who’s
hangs up the phone after he finishes talking.
“Hey could we have a talk?” Alex asked.
“Sure,” Kenny said. “How can I help you.”
“Well there’s Super Bowl going on in our stadium.”
“Oh yes the Super Bowl,” Kenny nodded.

“You wanna come?”
“Are you loaded up busses.”
“Given a lot of people, almost 97% of people say that
they gonna watch it at home…,” Alex shakes his head.
“No.”
“Alright I’m in.”
Alex takes a copy of his address and gives it to him.
“Here,” he said.
Kenny takes it.
“You hold to this,” Alex continued. “I’ll call you on
the way.”
“Thank you.”
Alex begins to walk out.A fortysomething man who works here named
Benjamin Lee is walking down the hallway.
Benjamin Lee is a huge sports fan. He watches
football most of the time. He watches Baseball whenever
baseball is on. He watches Basketball whenever
basketball. And he also watches the rest of sportswhenever sports are on.
He already buy tickets for the Super Bowl every year
since his mid-20s and he tells his co-workers that if
anyone goes to the Super Bowl as him, then they get
dragged to the big game, whether they interested
hanging out with him or not.
As he walk down the hall in the office building,
suddenly saw a thirtysomething woman named Charlotte
doing something on her smartphone.
Charlotte is a somewhat a tomboy who loves to have
her smartphone out whenever there’s a game or an
action movie coming out.
He walked toward her.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 11/32
“What are you doing?” he asked.
She suddenly got scared when she didn’t his
footsteps. Her smartphone hit the carpet. Fortunately it
has a save cover.
“Sorry I didn’t meant to scare you.”
“That’s okay,” she said. “I’m watching clips for the
Super Bowl.”
“Oh,” he nodded. “Who’s gonna win?”
“I don’t know. We have to watch to find out. I’m
going to the stadium.”
“Me too.”
“Wait, you’re a senior.”
“Yes don’t you think seniors enjoy sports?” “Um…,” she thought for a moment.
“Yes they do,” he said before she could ever answer.
He begins to walk out. “Now I’m heading lunch,” he said.
She was surprised that Benjamin is going to the
stadium.
At a fast food restaurant, Alex and Kenny wereordering food.
“And what did you want,” the clerk asked Alex.
“I want a double cheeseburger,” Alex said.
“Double cheeseburger?”
“Yes.”
“Okay,” the clerk punch in those numbers. “That’ll
be twenty dollars,” she added.
“Okay,” Kenny said as he take out his wallet.
Outside, Benjamin is talking to his friend Oliver while
walking to that same restaurant.
Benjamin and Oliver have been friends for a quite
long of time. They sometimes eat lunch together
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 12/32
whenever Oliver is ready. Benjamin is more ready for an
adventure than Oliver.
“So you going to the Super Bowl?” Oliver asked.
“Yep,” Benjamin said.
“But that’s far away.”
“I know, I’ll just have to get early so I can get there
on time.” He looked at him. “Are you going Oliver?” he
asked.
“Um no I’m watching it at home.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m too old for that. I don’t know about
you, since you obviously going to the far away stadium.”
They almost headed to the fast food restaurant, theystopped walking and look face to face.
“Relax,” Benjamin said. “I’ll be fine. I still have the
same awesome car.”
Oliver stares at him then he decides to be okay with
him. “Okay,” he said.
They finally enter the fast food restaurant just asAlex and Kenny took their treys and sit into an empty
table looking face to face.
The line starts to get smaller and quicker.
Benjamin and Oliver are in line in front of one
regular customer ordering food. They’re looking at the
menu. The menu is full of choices.
“What did you want?” Benjamin asked Oliver.
“I want a cheeseburger,” Oliver said. He looks at
him. “What did you want?”
Benjamin still looking at the menu. He looks at him
back. “You want a cheeseburger meal?” He asked.
“Yes.”
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 13/32
Benjamin looked back the menu. “I’ll want a chicken
sandwhich for me,” he said.
“Okay.”
As the customer take out a receipt and stands back,
they got walked in front of the same restaurant clerk.
Alex looking from the customer line suddenly saw
Benjamin from work.
“Wait Benjamin is ordering lunch,” Alex asked Kenny
without looking.
Kenny turns around and looks at Benjamin as
Benjamin and Oliver were seen ordering lunch with the
same clerk.
“Well he definatley is,” Kenny said to Alex. “Well hopefully he won’t see us,” Alex said.
The clerk gives Benjamin and Oliver a receipt.
“Here you go,” she said. “Your food will be ready in
less than two minutes.”
“Thank you,” Oliver said as he and Benjamin step
back for the next customer to move in.They looked at the receipt.
“Okay,” Benjamin said. “328,” he read the order
number.
As they looked around, Benjamin saw Alex and
Kenny sitting down eating lunch. He looked back at
Oliver.
“Stay right here and remind me when our order is
ready,” he told Oliver.
“Wait you going to the bathroom?” Oliver asked.
“No I’m going to meet some friends.”
“Okay.”
Benjamin walked toward Alex and Kenny.
“Oh god no,” Alex said.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 14/32
“Hello,” Benjamin said to them. “I never saw you
guys eating lunch here.”
“Well that’s our usually time,” Kenny said.
“It’s lunch time,” Alex added.
“Well usually I grab a bag of sandwich to work,”
Benjamin said. “But I rather stop by to eat lunch with my
Oliver.”
Alex and Kenny looked at each other.
“Are you looking to sit with us?” Kenny asked
Benjamin.
“Well not really,” he said. “But are you looking for
me to sit with you guys.”
Kenny looked at Alex, who got hesitant.“Don’t make an angry face now Alex,” Benjamin
warned.
Alex looked at him. He looked at Kenny again, who’s
waiting for answer.
Suddenly an restaurant employer called an order
number.“328,” she shouted.
Benjamin looked up. “That’s us,” he said as he begin
walking to get the food.
Oliver shows the receipt as he walked toward the
food. “Thank you,” he said.
“You’re welcome,” the employee said.
Benjamin rushing towards Oliver to get the food.
“Alright,” Oliver said.
“Can we sit with them,” Benjamin said as he points
to Alex and Kenny. “They wanna sit with us,” he added.
“Sure,” Oliver said.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 15/32
Minutes later, Benjamin and Oliver were sitting with
Alex and Kenny. Benjamin is sitting besides Alex, while
Kenny sits besides Oliver.
Alex wasn’t too happy about sitting with Benjamin
and his friends, and although Kenny wasn’t too happy
either, at least he was a nice gentleman.
“So are you ready for the Super Bowl?” Oliver asked.
“Yeah,” Kenny said. “Me and Alex are going to the
stadium.”
Alex nodded.
Benjamin got a surprise look. “Wait what,”
“We going to see the Super Bowl,” Alex said to him.
“In person.” Benjamin looked at Oliver.
“Not me,” he said. “I told you I’m not going there.”
Alex looked at Benjamin. “Wait,” he said. “You going
too?”
“Yeah I’m going to the Super Bowl,” Benjamin said.
“With you guys.” Alex and Kenny looked at each other in shocked.
“Oh c’mon guys,” Benjamin said.
“Where were you’ll be in?” Kenny asked.
“In a car.”
“We’ll be in the plane.”
“Huh huh,” Benjamin shook his head. “You either
come with me in the car or you’ll fired.”
Alex and Kenny looked at each other once again.
They were uncomfortable hanging out with him. They
wished they had a better plan rather than just blurt it out
in front of him.
Benjamin, meanwhile, is afraid of flying, especially
since the September 11th attacks. He is also afraid of
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 16/32
trains too because of overcrowding, accidents, and other
transportation problems.
At a conference room in the office building, Alex,
Kenny, and Charlotte is sitting down in a table. She was
having a coffee.
“So what do you got Charlotte?” Alex asked.
“I have a chocolate coffee,” Charlotte said.
“You like it?”
“Yeah, eventually.”
Then Benjamin walks into the room with his
notepad.
“What’s this?” Charlotte asked. “Is this look like a
regular meeting.” “No Charlotte,” Benjamin said as he pull a chair to sit
down. “This is not look like any regular meeting. This is a
discussion for plans of a big game.”
She gave a curious look.
He looked at Kenny, who’s feels like he’s ready. “Go
ahead Kenny,” he said. “Let’s start this discussion.” Kenny stood up and prepared to talk. “Okay so we all
going to the Super Bowl,” he said.
“Yes,” the gang said.
“In person.”
“Yes.”
Benjamin opens up his notepad. He looks back at the
group. “My great suggestion is that we should all going
into my car,” he said.
Alex, fearing that everyone is going to hangout with
him, thinks fast. “Okay how about this,” he said with a
clap.
Ben jamin took a glaze stare at him, feeling that it’s
not going to happen.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 17/32
“How about we should all going on a plane.”
“First of all,” Benjamin rejects. “How about this. How
about if we all going to my car, then we all perfectly
fine.”
“Charlotte,” Alex said as he turns to her. “What do
you think?”
“Don’t listen to him Charlotte,” Benjamin said. “If
you chose on a plane, then you all be fired.”
Alex gives another at her with a chuckle. “C’mon
Charlotte,” he said. “You know he’s playing.”
“I’m not playing Alex,” Benjamin shouted at him.
“Maybe I should fire you.”
Alex suddenly shut up.Kenny and Charlotte looked at both of them back
and forth.
Soon, it looked like Alex and Benjamin are
competing to see who should go with whom.
Charlotte is the person who’s mostly caught in the
middle. When she given choice between two men, shemostly doesn’t have a clue until she feels she had no
choice choosing Benjamin.
Benjamin starts to calm down.
Before Charlotte answers anything, suddenly
another woman named Susanne enters the room. She
came with her brown purse.
“Hey what are you guys up to,” Susanne asked.
“We’re going to the Super Bowl,” Benjamin said as
he looked at her. “You wanna come?”
“Sure.”
The gang cheered.
“You wanna be on a car?” Benjamin asked her.
“Or on a plane?” Alex asked with a suggestion.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 18/32
Suzanne thoughts for a moment.
Benjamin moves his face slowly closer to her as she
thinks.
She looks at him. “What are you doing?”
“Well I’m…waiting for an answer,” he said.
She thought again. “You have a car correct?” she
asked.
“Yep.”
“Aright I’m in,” she said as she looks at the rest of
the gang.
When Benjamin competes with his other male co-
workers, they always root for the women. And the
women obviously know that they have to chooseBenjamin’s side in order for them to stay in the job.
Susanne is the only one who’s really sides with him. She
doesn’t waste time. She always do the job well done.
“What?!” Alex shouted as he was shock.
Kenny didn’t move but his eyes.
Charlotte got excited to see her hanging out withthem.
Alex and Kenny looked at each other.
Benjamin gives Suzanne a high-five. “Well that’s
more like it,” he said.
CHAPTER 2
Alex, Kenny, Charlotte, and Susanne all drive their cars to
Benjamin’s house with their luggage suitcases. Minutes
later, everyone gathered their belongings and put them
in their back of Benjamin’s car. Once finished, they’re
hop into the car.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 19/32
Benjamin was on the wheel, while Charlotte is
beside him. Suzanne, Alex, and Kenny (from left to right)
are all on the back.
“Alright are we all ready?” Benjamin asked.
“Yep I’m ready,” Charlotte said checking out his
smartphone.
“How about you Suzanne?”
“Yeah,” Suzanne said holding her purse.
“I’m fine,” Alex said rasing his hand.
“Me too,” Kenny said.
Benjamin turns around. He boots up the car. “Okay
here we go,” he said.
The car starts to drive off.The road trip has gone smoothly. Everyone has been
calm and quiet. However hours later, the gang suddenly
becomes tired…at least for a while.
“Are we there yet?” Suzanne asked.
“Not yet Suzanne,” Benjamin said. “We got four
hours to go.” “Why we have to go so early?” Kenny asked.
“Yeah why?” Alex asked.
“Because that way we gonna be first in line,”
Benjamin said.
“It doesn’t matter if we’re first in line.”
Benjamin pull his care from the highway and stops
the car.
“Hey,” Kenny shouted.
“What are you doing?” Charlotte asked.
“Why are we stopping?” Susanne asked.
Benjamin turns around without answering. “Oh so
we gonna be the last ones in line huh,” he said to Alex.
“How about I’ll fire you and let the rest of us in line.”
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 20/32
“Okay okay fine,” Alex said.
Benjamin slow turns around. He turns the car back
on and enters the highway again.
Another few hours later, just as the road trip is going
smoother again, the car got headed for a traffic jam.
“Oh crap,” Benjamin said.
“What,” Alex asked.
“Traffic jam.”
The gang goans.
Benjamin always drive the highway every Super Bowl
weekend. Usually, the highway was clear and nice. But
this time, it’s not.
“Why are we on traffic jam?” Kenny asked. “I don’t know,” Benjamin said. “Maybe there’s a lot
of people trying to go to the Super Bowl too.”
“Oh wow,” Alex said as he leans back.
“Don’t worry guys,” Benjamin said as calms them
down. “We’ll be fine.”
“We’ll be fine?” Alex asked as he was skeptical.“How we gonna be fine when we’re on a traffic jam?”
“You wanna be fired?” Benjamin asked as he looked
at him.
“No…”
“Then shut your mouth up.”
“Alex,” Kenny said. “Just calm down.”
Alex looked at him as he was still skeptical. “What
did you think it is Kenny,” he said. “So wait you love
traffic?”
“Well I’m not saying I love traffic.”
“But you sound like you are.”
“No,” Kenny shook his head a little.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 21/32
“Yeah you are,” Alex’s eyes are widen. “You seem to
love being a traffic jam.”
“Okay can you just be quiet,” Susanne told. “Alex.”
He suddenly lean back, still moaned.
“I know this is a terrible situation,” she looks at her
purse and pull out a mp3 player. “But why won’t you try
usuing your electronic device?” she looked at him.
“Yeah Alex,” Charlotte added, without looking. “Use
your divice.”
Alex suddenly looks straight at the front car window.
“No I would rather stare at the traffic for a while,” he
said to them.
Susanne, Charlotte, and Kenny are unhappy abouthis decision. They stare at him, like he’s not worth it.
Then they decided to move forward with their electronic
stuff without.
Hours later, they’re still on traffic jam. Even though
some of them had something on their hands to relax, the
gang couldn’t hold much longer with the traffic jam,including Alex.
Benjamin looked at his watch.
Charlotte is looking through her smartphone.
Suzanne is listening to her mp3 player.
Kenny is playing on a video game portable.
And Alex, well, stares at the traffic, like he wants to
do. He then looks at Kenny. “Kenny what are you
playing?”
“Mind your business,” Kenny said without looking.
“Oh so you don’t want to tell me what game you’re
playing okay.” Alex looked pathetically. “At least you
could tell me what time it is,” he continued.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 22/32
“Use your watch, you dummy,” Kenny said, once
again without looking.
Alex looked back straight at the window.
Benjamin looks at his watch again. He looked back at
the traffic. “Looks like we gonna have a long night,” he
said in a clam tone.
“Yeah we know,” Alex said arrogantly.
“Looks like I’m the person behind the wheel who’s
patiently quiet.” Benjamin didn’t looked at him.
“Yeah and I’m the one who’s tired to being stuck in
TRAFFIC,” Alex shouted.
It appears that Alex and Benjamin were about to
fight over this nightmare situation on the road.Alex doesn’t like stuck in traffic. When it comes to
traffic jams, he complains about traffic. He suddenly
wished that he and Kenny would go on a plane without
all of the problems.
“Relax Alex,” Charlotte said without looking.
“Yeah,” Suzanne said as she looked at him. “Like wetold you, just try something on your smartphone.”
“There’s nothing on my smartphone,” Alex said.
“Do you have the internet?”
“My smartphone don’t have an internet
connection.”
She then got a surprising look as she stare upward.
“Okay,” she said slowly as she looks back at him.
“Well then ask your friend Kenny to borrow it,”
Charlotte suggests as she turns around to look at Alex.
She didn’t hear the conversation of Alex and Kenny
earlier as her music was pretty much loud.
Kenny looked up. “Huh,” he said. He then looks at
Alex. “Oh no,” he said shaking his head.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 23/32
“C’mon Kenny,” Alex said.
“Oh no you should get your own smartphone.”
“I already have a smartphone.”
“Well then use it,” Kenny rolled his eyes to him.
“My smartphone doesn’t have an internet
connection.”
“Well…”
Alex wanted a smartphone. But when he turns it on,
he realized that his smartphone doesn’t have an internet
connection. He doesn’t really paying attention. All he
wanted was a smartphone because he saw a lot of
people have them. He can’t buy another one after that
purchase and he was not allowed to make a refund. Hewas ticked off.
“Okay can you two just stop it,” Benjamin said.
They got quiet and looked at him.
“I mean,” Benjamin continued. “We’re in the middle
of a traffic jam.”
“We know,” Alex and Kenny said. “And we all going to the Super Bowl right,” he said.
“Yes,” the gang said.
“Alright no more talking,” Benjamin looks at the
traffic. “We’re gonna make it.”
“No we’re not,” Alex disagrees. “We’re in the middle
of a traffic jam and you said we’re gonna make it, which
is…,” Alex rolled his eyes at himself. “Not happening,” he
said.
“Okay can you just be quiet Alex,” Benjamin starts to
feel irritated as he looked at him. “I know you complain
about the traffic but I’m trying to focus on what I’m
doing.”
Alex took a deep breath.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 24/32
“So would you please,” Benjamin said in a calm tone.
“Could just be quiet- relax for a while. Okay.”
Alex doesn’t like to feel relax when it comes to
waiting problems. Not just traffic jams, but also waiting
for the doctor’s appointment. That moment, he was
waiting for almost one and a half hour. He complains
about it and, as a result, he was told to get out because
he was a pain in the neck for everybody else who also
waits for their doctors to show up.
Another few hours later. It’s nighttime. Everybody is
hungry. They’re still on traffic jam. Usually when it comes to vacations, as they packed
their belongs, everybody brings their snacks in when they
get into the car, just in case if they get hungry. This was
not the case for this group of folks who want to see the
Super Bowl.
Apparently, they weren’t expected for a traffic jam.They didn’t bring food because they thought they’re
gonna make it. In…probably four hours or more. Sure the
traffic would come smoothly if the people weren’t into
something else like another big event coming.
Alex looks around. “Anybody hungry?” he asked.
“Yes,” Charlotte said. “I want some food.”
“Well I don’t bring food so…,” Benjamin said. He
looks at them through the car mirror. “Anybody?” he
asked, looking for the same answer.
The rest of the gang looked at each other.
“I don’t have any,” Charlotte said shaking her head.
“Me neither,” Kenny said.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 25/32
Alex looked at Suzanne. “Do you have food?” He
asked.
“What, did you?” she asked as she looked back.
“Nope.”
She took a deep breath.
Alex looks something out of her purse. It looks like
she has a candy bar.
She looked at him again and as she notices that he
saw her bar, she takes the bag away from him in
response. “Uh huh,” she said.
“I see you have candy,” he said.
“What,” Charlotte shouted.
“Are you kidding me?” Kenny asked Susanne. “I want some chocolate,” Benjamin added.
Susanne is now the center of attention. She hesitant
to share her food to all of them. She wants to eat it all at
once, just like everybody else.
They haven’t eating since breakfast and are
desperately hungry. They wanted Susanne’s only candyso bad.
Everyone is looking at her, except for Benjamin, who
is slowly traveling because of Traffic Jam.
She later became reluctant. “Alright fine,” she
shouted as she takes out candy from her bag.
“Ah thank you,” Alex said.
The rest of the gang relax themselves.
“Let me break it into pieces,” she added. She opens
her candy and did it as she told.
“Thank you,” Alex said. He eats it immediately.
“Thanks,” Kenny said.
“Thank you,” Charlotte said.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 26/32
“Here,” Susanne said giving to Benjamin who takes
that bite.
“Thank you,” he said it slowly.
She then ate the last piece of the candy. She was
unhappy.
“Do you have more candy Susanne?” Kenny asked.
“No!” she shouted. “In fact I’m not buying any food
for you all. You guys have to bring food whenever there’s
a traffic jam or…whatever what’s going on.”
“She right,” Benjamin said. “I told you guys to bring
food with you. I don’t care if you eat it in the car.”
Susanne, Alex, and Kenny all looked at each other.
A few more hours later, they’re still stuck in traffic. The
traffic is moving, but still slowly. Kenny and Charlotte
were tired with their smartphones, while Susanne is still
listening to her mp3 player, although she, too, started to
get tired.
Meanwhile, Alex is singing a very uncomfortabletune, which annoyed the rest of the gang, including
Benjamin, who tries to stay focus on the traffic. He was
singing blah.
“Blah blah blah,” he sang slowly. “Blah blah blah blah
blah blah blaaahhh.”
“Okay since when did you start singing?” Kenny
interrupts.
“I don’t know,” Alex said. “I just start singing just
now.”
“Well this is not The Sound of Music. What we’re
listening to is The Sound of Blah, coming from your
mouth,” Kenny said arrogantly.
8/13/2019 The Trip to the Super Bowl: Part 1
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/the-trip-to-the-super-bowl-part-1 27/32
Alex rolled his head. “Is there any other way that I
can enjoy?” he asked everybody.
“Use your freaking smartphone,” Benjamin said.
“My smartphone, like I told you, doesn’t an inter-,”
Alex stopped for a thought come up in his head. “Wait do
you have a smartphone?” he asked Benjamin.
Benjamin awfully leaned back after Alex asked him
that.
For the entire run of this traffic jam so far, Benjamin
is the only guy in the car who didn’t use an electronic
device because he was behind the wheel. Alex was the
only one in the rest of the gang who rides with him not
enjoying the time of his life.Benjamin looked at Alex through the car mirror.
“Alright you know what,” he said as he starts to pull his
smartphone out of his pants pocket. “Here,” he said as
he gives it to Alex.
“Thank you,” Alex said with a sign of relief.
“Don’t break it, don’t spit on it, don’t sneeze on it,don’t do anything harmful to my smartphone,” Benjamin
told him. “Is that clear Alex?”
“Yes.”
“Alright good.” Benjamin looks back at the traffic.
“Now be quiet.”
Another hours later, it’s almost 11:00pm, and
they’re still stuck in traffic.
The gang, except for Benjamin, were about to sleep.
Alex was just tired both physical and emotional. He
already given back Benjamin’s smartphone.
“Oh my god,” he said.

“What Alex?” Benjamin asked.
“I feel like we never make it.”
“We will.”
“I’m gonna sleep,” Kenny said. “I’m hungry and
tired.”
“Yeah me too,” Susanne said.
Charloette is already sleeping.
Benjamin is the only man staying up because he’s
behind the wheel. While waiting to get off the traffic jam,
he secretly opens up one of his bottle of waters. He
drinks it. Most of it.
“Ahh,” he said feeling refreshed. He puts it back and
put his hands back on the sterling wheel.The next morning, the gang starts to wake up and they
suddenly see they’re out of traffic. The car is driving
normal as usual. Only a few cars driving past by, around,
or behind.
Benjamin is very happy.
“Oh my god,” Alex said. “We get of this mess,” Kenny said as he looked at
him.
“From last night,” Susanne said as she looks at them.
“Well that was a bad night wasn’t,” Alex said.
Charlotte looks around. The sun is shining and the
car is driving faster. “Wow,” she said. “Unbelievable.”
They all relieved.
“Benjamin what happened at overnight?” Alex
asked.
“Well there was a big crash on the highway,”
Benjamin explains. “The police, the ambulance, and the
truck had come to the scene to take it away.”
“Oh,” The gang said as they get it now.

“Well, moving on, we all hungry,” he continued. “Is
that right?”
They looked at each other once again as they
suddenly remembered last night.
“Oh yeah,” Charlotte said.
“I was giving you all pieces of my candy last night,”
Susanne said.
“Yeah we’re hungry at the time,” Kenny
remembered.
“Is that mean we’re all going to breakfast?” Alex
asked Benjamin.
“Yes we are,” Benjamin said.
The gang starts to feel a sign of relief.
