While he did drive fast, at least he wasn't guilty of texting-and-driving. The neighboring car cut him off, giving him what felt like a split-second to brake, causing the Herbal Essence and the last minute Tampax request to come teetering off the edge of the seat with a brushed thud. The car came to a slowed pace as the other, what he identified as a Chevrolet, did the same as it trailed behind another's rear bumper. It snapped him out of his zone and that meant one thing.
Chevy was going to get a piece of his mind.
His eyes could've easily flashed as red as the brake lights. His nonchalant features seemed unmoving for that time, his thumb tapping against the edge of the wheel.
As traffic moved up, however, he glanced to the right as a space opened up. Quickly, Jason took it, siding himself with the Chevy once more after a symphony of car horns began playing outside. As his head turned to glance at the driver, he noticed only one hand on the wheel. The other? Right on the man's ear. In one of his more eccentric moments, he lifted a hand, shaping it to a half-assed phone, and began blabbing directly into it. The moment the driver caught on that Jason was, indeed, mocking him, his face twisted into frustration.
The words Jason mouthed out behind his window was easily not pleasant, even if it wasn't English. A short string of 'diu lei' later, his own phone sounded off twice in rapid succession. It was reduced to a high-pitched beep after everyone at a family reunion heard a shrill scream. Four times. Coming to a stop at a red light, the Chevy no longer focused on him, he plucked the phone from its place, sighing exasperatedly.
Go out, again? Really? It was a nice day to be at home, he thought. Sleeping. In the car.
It wasn't until the next text--labeled Evil Sister--that his mind was made up.
From: Evil Sister
Message: Playtex.
With once last glance, Jason moved out of that message quicker than a heartbeat, moving back to Sinead's. They may have not been best friends, but she wasn't dull, at least, even if he was sure they had little in common. And just about anyone could beat his family, especially with any maturity level above zero. With a quick hand, he messily wrote back---the woes of owning a touch phone.
To: Sin
From: Jason
Message: on the roiad. place?
With that, he resolutely placed the phone a short distance away from the stick, taking the green to continue onward.
