So we sit, trying to figure out what happened. And the other people on the bus are confused also. We wonder if we should try to find another bus. So we get off, and another bus pulls in behind. So we get off our bus and go to get on that bus. But that bus driver says no no no and motions for us to get onto our original bus. So we do, thinking he is going to drive ours. But he doesnt.
