ZAYNs POV

"Mister you don't understand!" I screamed at the driver.

"Its Gabby's graduation! I'm already late. I really don't want to miss it." I tried to explain but he just frowned.

"Sorry sir. Pero traffic. Can't do anything. Anong gusto mo, paliparin ko 'tong taxi na parang eroplano?" he impatiently said while he kept his gaze straight ahead.

Ugh. Damn it! First, I fell asleep again right after I hit the snooze button this morning. Next, I found out that Louis wasn't in his hotel room. Pretty much he's off to Gab's graduation. Third,  I'm positive that the ceremony had began already. While I'm stuck here in the middle of this stupid traffic. Why oh why am I so unlucky today??? Of all the days in this year, why now?

I stared out of the window to see a bike lane at the side of the street. Look at those bikes running smoothly. Tss. Even the bikers are faster than a taxi! How can it be so traffic this early in the morning? 

That's when it hit me.

What am I still doing in this taxi? By the time we reach Gab's school, it'll be all too late. For heavens sake we're as slow as a slug. I give up on waiting!

I paid the driver and ran to the bike lane. Plan A, ride a taxi, is a total fail so on to Plan B. This might be crazy but well, I'm crazy! So who cares?

I saw a lad, who by the way I think is a few years younger than me, sitting idly by at the pavement. With no second thoughts, I approached him. "Hey man!" I said casually while he looked around him as if I was talking to another person.

"Uhm, listen I really need to borrow your bicycle. Please it's an emergency! I'm running really late for an important---" I tried to explain but he cut me off.

"Are you talking to me?" he asked. IS THIS GUY FOR REAL???? How would Gabby react at these situations? Oh yeah she would scream, "FACEPALM!" 

But of course I can't say that out loud cause I need this guys help. So instead I said this, "Yes mate, I'm talking to you. And again, I really really REALLY need your help! You see this amazing girl I met a few months ago is graduating today. Actually right this second! I can't miss it for the world!"

"Why are you going to miss it then?" another facepalm! But again, I need this guys help. So I just explained furthermore.

"As you can see, the cars are practically not moving at all. If I stayed in that taxi I rode awhile ago, I'll never get there!" can't any bell ring in his mind?

"And this girl you're saying. She is your what??" I think this lad is messing with me!

"A very close friend of mine." I tried to calmly tell him. I hope by now he gets what I'm trying to say.

In the middle of our conversation, his phone suddenly started to ring. Of course he picked it up. He was talking in Filipino so basically I can't understand anything. Not that i would care anyway!

"Dude sandali lang. May kausap akong tisoy. May kailangan sakin eh. Baka may mahita ako dito! Sabihin mo na lang kay ate na....Na bumalik ako ng bahay kasi may nakalimutan ako. Sige na 'kaw na bahala." then he ended the call and placed his phone back in his pocket.

"So you need this bike?" he pointed to the bicycle beside him and I nodded. "Oh, I don't know. I mean this bike is valuable for me. So many precious memories...."

My heart sank a bit at his remark. "Please! You're my only hope. You need to help me!" a little more and I'll be kneeling in front of this kid.

Out of the blue, he placed a smirk on his face. I really think this kid is planning something. And I don't think I like it one bit. "How about we try to negotiate this?" he said
