Ahmed and Leo, Ahmed's best friend, are walking after school in the street. They have a cool conversation about having some fun.

Leo:

"I wish I could drive my father's car. It is a sports one from Germany. Did you see it? On Instagram?"

Ahmed replies in his cool voice:

"Yes, I did. But I'm not interested in these kinds of cars. You know I'm a classic man!"

Leo laughs and stares at Ahmed for a while, then he replies:

"What about having a car ride tonight? With our fathers' cars?"

Ahmed looks serious and terrified:

"Oh, no. My father would have killed me if something happened to the car."

Leo, in a playful way:

"Don't be afraid. You are a great driver!"

Ahmed looks serious and stops walking, then Leo as well:

"I'm not afraid! I'm never afraid.. I'm just cautious."

They continue walking again, then Leo replies:

"Mmm. Okay, let's delay this amazing event to a time that will never come."

Leo waves at Ahmed and runs to his home:

"Adios!"

Ahmed stops in his place, staring at Leo, who disappears from the place, thinking of something we can't figure out.

At night, Ahmed is in his room, turning off the light to sleep. As he was about to go to bed, he heard a noise from the street. He was curious to know what it was, especially when the noise appeared to reveal more about its source, which was something Ahmed loves, Cars!

He opened the window's curtain and looked at the street. There was a cabriolet with some boys having fun in it. They were laughing and enjoying the Adrenaline! He looked at them and smiled. He can feel the excitement they are feeling. Unintentionally, he raises his hands and acts like he is holding a steering wheel. He tensions his hands strongly, but then he returns to reality and drops his face to the floor with a hopeless impression. Then, he closes the curtains and sleeps on the bed, dreaming of his car ride.

After some hours, Ahmed was moving a lot in the bed. He can't sleep. Something is bothering him. After some minutes, he sits on the bed and brushes his hair with his hand in confusion. Then, he brings his iPhone and calls Leo.

Leo in a sleepy voice:

"What's it?"

Ahmed in a shaky voice:

"Uhh.. Leo.."

Leo keeps silent for a while, then figures out what Ahed wants:

"So you want to have the ride?"

Ahmed smiles in joy:

"Yes!"

Leo jumps from his bed:

"Yesss! That's my boy."

Ahmed interrupts:

"I'm your father. Don't say it again."

Leo:

"We will see who is the father and who is the son."

Ahmed:

"Okay!"

They turn off the call, and Ahmed leaves his bed as Leo did already. They steal their parents' cars keys, get in the garage of each houses and bring the cars. Ahmed was very excited when he had the chance to insert the key in the car, and he was more excited when the engine starts to work.

He drives until he meets Leo in a place in the city. They cross the cars and have a deal:

Leo:

"So we will have a competition, okay?"

Ahmed:

"Okay, cool!"

Leo:

"Who reaches the town age first is the winner, alright?"

Ahmed, before moving the steering wheel:

"Let it be.."

They reach the town edge, and Ahmed wins.

Ahmed gets out of the car:

"I told you. I'm always the first."

Leo in despair:

"Ahh, you got this man. Fast and Furious champion!"

Ahmed laughs at Leo's humor. They walk during the midnight.

Ahmed:

"What an amazing view of this a.m."

They sit on a seat beside a tree and have a conversation.

Leo:

"What's the matter?"

Ahmed replies in confusion:

"Huh? Which matter?"

Leo:

"Something is annoying you."

Ahmed:

"Ahh.. not really"

Leo in a serious voice:

"If not, what made you awake till this time?"

Ahmed looks stressed and replies, after brushing his hair with his hand:

"Ahh.. I don't.. I just wanted to have fun, and you made me drive my father's car unconsciously!"

Leo replies with a sly smile:

"I think it is a girl."

Ahmed looks in a surprised face:

"No. What made you think this way?"

Leo smiles again at Ahmed, who looks to the other side:

"Because I know who she is."

Ahmed kept silent like he didn't hear.

Leo takes a deep breath and talks to Ahmed while he stands up:

"Okay.. Just remember, when you need to talk about it, don't hesitate to tell me."

Ahmed replies with an absent expression:

"Sure, I will soon."

Leo looks in a surprise:

"Then I'm right!"

Ahmed returns conscious and waves at Leo:

"No, no. Uh.. I mean.. I mean.. I will tell you anything I want when I feel I need to.. Uh.. Yes.. That's it."

Ahmed breathes quickly from shyness and looks angrily at Leo, who keeps laughing out loud until he gets in his father's car and leaves with it.

Ahmed rests in the seat, stops his quick breathing, and smiles with bright eyes.
