Nobody likes going home to a nagging wife, so this cab driver stayed on the streets just a little longer, trying his luck.
A beautiful passenger flagged him down. She’s quiet, tired, and not very keen to keep the conversation going when he starts talking about his life.
She bails on him when he finally gets to her destination, and she left him nervous, shaking, and chain-smoking.
He then went on his way home, finally.
