“It’s me, Carlos—the guy who gave you a ride to an estate the other day,” the guy said.
“Which day was that?” I asked, trying to remember when he had given me a ride.
“I don’t really remember the day, but you said it was your boss who sent you on an errand, and the sun was scorching that very day,” he explained. I thought back to that day and remembered. How could I have forgotten so fast?
“Oh! Carlos, I’m sorry for not remembering you. Foolish me,” I said apologetically.
“It’s fine. There must have been a lot on your mind,” he replied. “How have you been?”
“I’ve been doing great, thanks for asking. What about you?” I said, then asked.
“I’ve been doing well, too. Is Adrian still acting like the jerk he is? Is he sending you on stupid errands? Has he changed?” he asked all at once.
