Your grandfather, who doesn’t speak English very well, recently injured himself while walking on a cracked sidewalk in his neighborhood. You, his fifteen-year-old granddaughter are with him as he uses Link Transit to get to The Acorn Suites in Mebane, where your mom works at as a housekeeper.

He limps onto the bus, as you hold his hand to steady him. To your dismay, you see that the seats are all full.
Then people start talking and pointing.

[[]]An teen points rudely and says, ”Hey, look man, it’s Obi Wan Kenobi. Where’s your lightsaber old man?” Another group of women in the middle of the bus whisper, “Oh, what happened to that poor man?”

To your dismay, you see that no one on this bus will willingly give up their seat, so you and your Pappap quickly get off and wait 20 minutes for another bus to arrive.
Then you get a text from your mom asking where you both are. You text her back saying, you both will be at the hotel soon, the bus was delayed.

The bus driver smiles warmly and tells you both to take a seat. Several people in the front get up and offer your grandfather their seat so he doesn’t have to walk all the way to the back of the bus.
You thank them and take your Pappap to his seat, sitting down beside him. The bus driver says, “All set back there?” and takes them to their next stop. The driver asks where you are heading.

There aren’t any drivers available to pick you both up until after 6:00pm. You told your mother you’d be there by 5:30pm, so now you are late for dinner.

Yes! You did it. During the ride, your driver excitedly tells you about Link Transit turning two years old this summer. With a smile, he lets you off. You thank him and lead your grandfather inside.
