Afternoon was Mrs. Green’s favorite time. Exhausted from work, she enjoyed her usual nap on the bus.
Mrs. Green had a special bond with Mr. Brown, the bus driver who always woke her before her stop. But
today was different. Mr. Brown wasn’t driving. Instead, a small man in a wrinkled uniform sat in his place.
"Where’s Mr. Brown?" Mrs. Green asked, dropping her fare into the box. "I don’t know. They say
he is driving on another route." the new driver said coldly. Mrs. Green didn’t like this new driver. He
didn’t seem like the type to do anyone a favor.
