A Walk Through Time

Oh No

Elliott
I have been seeing Elsa for a few months now, but something seems off about the last couple of weeks. I noticed a few things, but I just figured she was busy and very tired, but she started cancelling on me. I called Christian and he invited me over to watch a few sports events. Of course I went and we had a lot of fun and Daniel came over since he now has his driver's license and wants to go shopping with Christian and I can buy him a car he has been eyeing recently. Mom and dad have given us very specific guidelines concerning any purchase of a car for him. They did that with Mia as well, dad and mom chose their cars for them. They told us where to get it and who to talk to. Daniel isn't going to be happy and neither was Mia in regards to their car. Christian tried to get around it, but that failed.
Christian
I can't believe I am going car shopping with my brothers and it is for Daniel. Mom and dad have set it up for Elliott and I to go buy the car they want for Daniel. They have given us strict orders about this and if we don't do as asked they will sell the car and buy Daniel a heap from the junk yard. We ended up getting a more masculine car similar to Mia's, but with upgrades on it. My parents forgot to restrict him on the extras. The sound system is top of the line and it is a bigger version than Mia has and the tires were upgraded and shocks and rims. Seats are heated and speakers all around more air bags as well. Custom floor mats and seat covers. Of course he wants some cool shades to go with the car. I told him he would have to get those himself. Elliott got him a pair of dollar tree shades. He had them ready for him to wear. The sales person could hardly contain his laughter as he took our payment for the car and the extra things for it. He was hoping to pick it up today, but they had to order the extras and install everything. It will take two weeks to get the things he wanted and another two weeks to get them installed correctly. The person who was an expert in it all Daniel wanted me and Elliott to get it earlier, but the salesperson said the person doing it won't allow cutting in line and if she gets the idea someone is trying they will wait longer or not get her services at all.
Daniel
I think we can have someone else do it before she can get to it then.
Salesperson Alexandria
Actually no one else knows how to install the stereo system you want but her on this side of the US. We won't cover the warranty if someone installs it other than Augie. She only works nights and weekends now. She has strict rules about her appointments, they can only be cancelled or rescheduled in an emergency and absolutely no cutting in line for any reason.
Daniel
Even if we double her pay?
Alexandria
She needs the money, but won't compromise her ethics to get it. First come first serve no amount of money will get you a better place on the list than you have already. It might get you off the list. She has done it before right mr Christian Grey?
Christian
Yep, I can't get her anywhere near my cars and if my staff tries to sneak one in she knows about it and stops it. So now I have to order directly from the manufacturer. They install on the east coast and transport them to me. So don't bug them to move you up in line.
Augie AKA Augusta
I have a full week ahead of me with people ordering car and wanting the upgrades installed in their new cars. I will be making a lot by installing the upgrades. Anastasia helps me out a lot and we are the only ones working in the shop, so no one realizes we are twins.
Anastasia
We eat our meals and head to the shop we opened up when we turned 18. We were already doing the installs, we just didn't have a full garage to do it in. We had to go to the dealership, but now we can either go to the dealership or our shop and have them bring over everything for the vehicles here along with the vehicles and all the equipment for installation. We make good money doing this and we doing well at the post office and get benefits there.
Herbert
Daniel is whining about waiting a month to drive his new vehicle and Christian reminds him that it is because all the extras he ordered to have installed and only one installer exists on this coast. She doesn't allow line jumping. Hmm only one installer she must be making good money then.
Alice
I think it's great a female is the one installing whatever it is Daniel asked for and to be the only one that is able to on this coast. She should be paid well for it, very well. Mia will just have to share her car until Daniel's is ready. Unless Christian can lend him one for now.
Daniel
I look at Christian and pleading for him to loan me his Lamborghini.
Christian
You need to ask mom and dad about it. I can loan you my Jeep for now. But you are not ready for anything that you would show off in and draw unwanted attention from certain people.
Herbert
No Lamborghini Daniel, just drive the Jeep a month won't be that long to wait for your vehicle.
Alice
Don't be in such a hurry to get your vehicle, you will have it soon and then complain about the rules we set up for you like your siblings did.
Daniel
I know. I have the rules and a few of my friends have been told they aren't allowed to drive it per your rules. I actually showed them the contract that my parents drew up and if I violate them I lose my freedom to drive for a month for each infraction. I can't get a speeding ticket, allow others to drive it, break curfew, and quite a few other rules, that really make a lot of sense. They aren't impossible to follow and easily.
