  • move everything inside. Just in case the rain really does come. Okay. Number two.

  • The boss said to go ahead with the project. Even if we end up going over our

  • you go ahead and drop off your schoolbag at home. And I'll meet you at the corner

  • after I pick up a drink. And then maybe they're going to go somewhere else. But

  • maybe this is a mother or you know telling the kid you go home drop off the
