Street lights shone down on the curvy silhouette of a black corvette. The reflection of the road side glistens off of the flawless Chrome coat of the vehicle. The engine roars at the slightest touch of the gas petal as my father turns to me from across the table. "It sounds amazing doesn't it." I nod my head in agreement as another beauty of a vehicle passes by us. A porche convertable glides smoothly across the pavement with a purr slightly different than the corvette that had passed before hand. "I like that one better though, don't you?" I shrug my shoulders. The cars were undoubtably impressive and incredibly expensive. They were beautifully tailored without flaw, but for some reason I felt nothing toward them. A strange smile spread across my face and my father looked at me confused. "Why are you smiling?" I looked down at my hands and thought for a moment to myself, not allowing much to slip out as I thought of one specific car that I really loved. "I don't know...I like the sound of trucks better" I say looking down at my hands, remembering.
True story that happened tonight. I found it quite funny how symbolism can apply to every day things.
