A familiar face in a far away place

As the van pulled up to the front of the hotel Jason saw a familiar face step out. It was the same driver that had picked them up from the airport.

Jason waved hello to the driver "Morning Mr. Holland. It's real cold out first thing in the morning huh?"

He smiled as he walked over to Jason. The two of them shook hands "Good morning Jason. I told you last night that you didn't need to be so formal with me.

You can just call me Rob. Hahaha I forgot that you and your friends are from California. This might be cold for you but this is perfectly normal for New York."

Rob then proceeded to put all of the boys' sports bags into the trunk of the van before instructing them to board.

As the boys got on the van it was as though there was a unspoken agreement between them as Jason and his group occupied the seats on the right while Monty and the other boys from Texas took the seats on the left side.
