Payment For The Ride Chapter 2 Novels & Stories

just kept walking until I saw a taxi parked at a gas station. The driver was inside paying and I waited by his car with my arms wrapped around myself. He came out and looked surprised to see me. "You need a ride?" "LAX." "That's gonna be expensive..." "I have money." I pulled out my wallet and showed him cash. I have quite a lot of it now, from my first Novare Group paycheck. Hardin had paid me two nights ago. At least this was mine... at least I'd earned this. He shrugged and unlocked the doors.

The ride had brought me relief that I didn't want it to end. "Yiur fare is 50 bills ma'am," the driver told me as he stopped in front of the apartment. "Okay," I said as I unzipped my purse and started going through it. I finally felt the piece of paper and brought it out, handing it to the driver, and just as I was about to open the door and leave, I heard the man curse. "The h*ll? Ma'am. I told you your bills was 50 not 20."

He was like a book of hundreds of pages, and for some reason I find myself wanting to skim through every page. “I'm done.” He muttered after emptying the hotpot. He had such a big appetite. I waited for him, as he searched through his pockets for his card. “I'm sorry.” he snickered. “I know it's my treat but, can you pay for now?” I raised a brow at him. “Wanting to thank me but having me pay for it?” “I will pay you back.” “Keep your word.” I took out my card and paid. The ride home was quiet, Adrian had his eyes fixed on me the whole time.

Then she gazed at him and slightly shook her head as she said, "No." After a brief pause, she looked into the v mirror and asked, "How much will be my fare?" "Oh, I get paid every month for doing this, so I don't need your money." The driver said, glancing back at her for a second before focusing on the road. "What is the meaning of that?" "Well, I have already been paid to get you." Goosebumps immediately covered Chloe's entire skin as her face grew pale, and she slowly and firmly asked, "Who the hell are you!?"

- Conductor "Uhm... karuhatan..." "25php Maam"- Conductor Fuck!! This is it!! what should I do!! "Here sir, 50 pesos to Brgy. Karuhatan."- Mary Ann like an angel and Mary Ann saved me from embarrassment "Hey, thank you. I was about to pay." "It's okay, you can pay for the ride in the jeepney."- Mary Ann "Sure" I have the courage but I still don't have the money how can I pay in the jeep!

The car moved then, and it was so hard to withhold my smile but I did. "Twelve bucks." He finally broke the silence. My eyes flew open. "Twelve bucks for what?" "The ride." "Okay." I uttered with an air of nonchalance, though I felt deeply broken inside. I had been hoping to add the cab fare to my savings, instead of returning it to my mean aunt. If only I hadn't called him Bennie. But I wasn't going to let him see my disappointment. I guess my response surprised him because he stole a glance my way, but I looked away and stared out the window. My vision attempted to blur with tears, but I forced them back in. I’m no loser.

The last ride they wanted to try. “Sir, you need to pay for the rides,” the staff said, blocking their way. “My ticket is ride-all-you-can,” Slyvester explained as he showed the ticket around his wrist. “Yes, Sir. But this ride isn’t included in the promo.” “Then, you should change it into “Ride all you can except the Ferris wheel,” Ryan murmured in the corner. “How much per person?” Slyvester asked, getting his wallet. “$2.” In Slyvester’s wallet, there’s $2. He forgot to withdraw cash from the bank and only brought a card with him.

“Five thousand, nothing less.” Rebecca looked at them helplessly and sighed. “Fine.” “Hand me the cash and I’m willing to forget the entire chapter,” said the greedy driver. Rebecca looked at Amelia hopefully, and they checked their wallets. Rebecca had one thousand, while Lizzy too contributed the same amount. Amelia paid the rest, and the man saluted and left with the money. “Phew! Thank God he agreed!” said Becca, watching the Mustang drive away. “Now what? Do we go back? With no money we can’t sightsee,” said Amelia.

“Ma’am, we reached.” “Oh, thank you!” Kiara disconnected the call, clutching her purse. “Here, thank you for the ride.” She held the money to him through the window. The old-aged driver smiled at her when she forwarded the currency notes to him, paying the fare. He took the notes, thanked her in response, and drive out of the building’s campus.

Cathy said all annoying. "But there is no space anymore." Craig said, "Do you want to pay for it?" The bus attendant's voice came up, he knows that Craig can pay because of his clothing, "Sure, I will pay for it." "Please shift, I don't have money to pay for extra, I am the one paying for it," Cathy said in anger, he shifted for the passengers, and he was sweating more. "Why are you even sweating?" Cathy asked him "The damn place Is like hell."
