The incessant honking behind them was getting impossible to ignore.
This traffic was moving slower than the walking ones!
The blaring homs caught Elysia’s attention, and when the light turned red, she glanced back, her gaze skimming over the vehicles. Lowell quickly ducked his head, and even Torquin turned his face away, fearing that Elysia at the crosswalk might catch sight of them.
Luckily, after a brief glance, she pedaled away as the light switched to green.
Lowell spoke up again. “Tarquin, this ain’t gonna fly! Ms. Thome isn’t clueless. She’ll definitely catch on if we keep this up.

Tarquin, dressed in a pricey designer suit, donned sunglasses and a face mask, and amid the curious stares, he made his way to the sidewalk and got a bike…
Onlookers watched as he, with his long, straight legs, pedaled away.
The crowd was abuzz with confusion and excitement.
“Holy cow, is that some celebrity causing a scene? Are they filming a movie?”

“Maybe it’s some rich kid slumming it? I saw him get out of that luxury car!”
“That vibe ain’t rich kid; it’s more big shot CEO! Holy moly, did I just step into a novel? My boss CEO is hitting the streets! Those legs, that figure, that ours, I’m head over heels! No, no, I gotta follow my CEO and experience life. I’m hopping on one of those shared bikes

“What are you riding for? Your house is just up the road.”
“I don’t care. I wanna ride, I wanna follow the CEO and strut down the street.
“Me too, me tool”
And just like that, a group of girls, giddy as can be, started scrambling for city bikes to chase after Tarquin.
Lowell watched the procession behind Tarquin and facepalmed.
