In which an eccentric college freshman keeps failing her driving test because a certain grumpy instructor doesn't seem like he wants her to pass. *** "Hey, don't make it obvious, but there are these guys behind us, and they've been checking us out for the last five minutes." Karla whispered, leaning over the table. "I don't care about guys!" I whined. "I'm more worried about my asshole instructor. Like what's his deal? If my parents find out I've been failing all these tests, I'll never get a license, let alone a decent car." Karla's eyes remained fixed on that table. "Um, I think one of them is motioning for us."

"Figured I'd save you the trouble and come say hi." His smirk vanished, but he said nothing as she turned and walked off. That night, he texted first. Him: You always this bossy? Her: Only with boys who look good when they obey. Started -7 june 2025 Finished -13 june 2025
