seventeen; Aaron, Cannondale Road Bike, aluminum, purple


Given that he once taught English in Korea and Taiwan, that he speaks fluent Spanish and that he “teaches English to rich kids in the city,” its shocking that his Friday night should be the victim of a random act of senseless miscommunication.
His movie missed, his bike locked then unlocked just as quickly.
He watches his girlfriend make it off the BART just as their movie (the reason they came up from Oakland) sells out.
But as soon as he sees her (the reason he moved from Eugene) the evening’s events, or lack there of, seem of little importance.
