Summary
A sudden red light almost makes him jump in his seat: he must have passed a roadblock, a patrol of the omnipresent police. He did not realize that he had felt asleep tiredly, after that umpteenth and long day of exhausting work, and the slight pain in his sore cheek suggests that he spent too many minutes of total abandonment against the window of his car.
It must have been a moment when he let his guard down, and he felt the full weight of his dark circles between eyelids and headaches.
He yawns and goes back to lean his cold shoulder against the soft seatback of the car, retrieving his jacket and looking for a little warmth for the trembling bones. Look forward, towards the traffic of evening reentry.
Not even having completely automated all kinds of transport, from public to exclusively private ones, has freed humanity from the scourge of traffic jam: that’s the bitter irony that colors the humor of those who consider themselves shrewd.
Him, certainly not.
