Daydreaming

Rain.
A lot of it.
It was around 6:30 p.m., thousands of people going back home after work. After all, it was friday, time to take a break and relax. That means, actually, traffic jam.
And the heavy rain just intensified that, since cars that managed to really move had some kind of inclination into provoking accidents. But, that was just another friday.
Amidst the chaos, one black car passed through. Going fast, compared to the default speed of other cars during such rains.


-Going left now, see anything?
-No, left is free, go!


The car swapped lanes oftenly. The driver barely looked at the rear view mirrors, they were useless in that situation. The girl at his right was now turned back, looking to the left lane. She served as his eyes, concentrated on whatever happened nearby. Seatbelt unfastened.
The rain just motivated them even more, even though he wouldn't go any faster than the allowed maximum speed, but just by going faster than pretty much everyone else already felt good enough. The girl looked cheerful.


-Incoming car...
-It's ok, we can keep in this lane for now.
-I dare you to run faster than that car!
-I'd accept it any time, as long as I was alone in this car, you know that.


She smiled at him, a smile that showed shyness yet wasn't trully introverted. She trusted him, and that's all that mattered.
The two went ahead as the rain felt. The gloomy feeling of the end of the day couldn't enter that car.
