Yasmine and I were going to a show at the Staples Center and Yasmine was driving. My friends warned me about her driving, but they didn’t prepare me for this ride. 

Pedro: Whoa, slow down! You almost rear- ended that SUV. 

Yasmine: No I didn’t. Take it easy. I have everything under control. I’m not even speeding, that much. You’re the one who doesn’t want to be late for the show. 

Pedro: Yeah, but I want to get there in one piece. Hey, what are you doing? You’re not going to make an illegal U-turn across four lanes of traffic, are you? 

Yasmine: I have to. 

Pedro: Why? 

Yasmine: I was going the wrong way on a one- way street. 

Pedro: Oh, geez. I think you just took 10 years off my life. 

Yasmine: Don’t be such a wuss. Buckle up and enjoy the ride. We’re just getting started…
