I Know I'm Handsome!

Seeing that Mrs. Garcia was hesitant to answer her question, Ashley assumed that she didn't want to give them a ride and preferred to go to work alone. 

So, to break the awkwardness, she put on a sweet smile when they reached where she was waiting for them. 

"It's alright if you have other things to do; we don't mind," she said as a way to try to make the older woman feel better. 

Mrs. Garcia felt ashamed of her actions. She quickly waved her hand and dismissed the idea. 

"No! No, that's not why. Actually, it's because I just don't drive when I go to work. My husband usually drops me off at work," she explained further, telling the two why she was so hesitant. 

Ashley felt bad for the older woman and how the accident had caused her so much trauma. She had to depend on her husband to drop her off at work or go there by bicycle. It was quite the ordeal since it caused her not to be able to sit in front of the driver's seat anymore.
