Putting his foot to the gas as he increased his speed, with his new salary increase he would able to buy the car of his dreams, an old classic that his father Hoyt Fortenberry had always talked about. Soon he would be home to visit his parents, but not before putting in one last stop to pick up his brother Elijah at the university of Alaska Fairbanks.
As he swerved around another vehicle that was driving way below the speed limit, he knew that Elijah would be timing him, hoping to win the bet that he would make it on time to the exact second before he would loose the bet.
As the university came into view he began searching for the parking lot where he knew that he would find his brother, and hopefully without one of his growing fan club of women that seemed to fawn over his every step.
Spotting him surrounded by a field of women he honked his horn several times to signal Elijah that he was here, he pulled the car up to the side of him and waited.
"......Let's go brother before we hit the traffic" he called out through the window.
Glancing at the clock, he had just missed his mark by two minutes, hopefully Elijah had forgotten their bet by now.
