Today was the day I had to travel to Los Angeles, I had almost everything ready, since it only happened about 24 hours before the New Year, at this time many people traveled to spend the holidays with their loved ones who, fortunately, had reserved. The bus ticket 2 days in advance.

In the month of December it was always the month where people made many more trips than in the other months of the year. For places like Fresno and Los Angeles, there was much more traffic, they were two of the largest cities in the state of California, especially the cities that traveled to Los Angeles, which was the most populous city in California and the second most populous in California. in the U.S. United of America with more than 3 million inhabitants.

The day before, I had packed everything in the suitcase, since I always liked to get dressed early when I was traveling, I was ready, I wore a black sports suit, black sneakers, a wool shirt with a very good "Tony" brand. It was a very recognized brand around the world, like the brand "Umbro" in its previous world and a thin white hunt. At this time of the year in the city of Fresno, its climate was rainy or it also had a cold climate. But in Los Angeles, where the whole year was hot for the December dates, Los Angeles was 22 ° C to 32 ° C, which was a warm climate.

Liam, I had everything ready for your trip, I had lunch 2 hours ago, looking at your watch, you realize it was 1:40. The bus, for which you had your ticket will leave at 2:25 pm. I took his suitcase and started to leave the house. When he left the house, Liam closed it, so that the tenant who rented the house, did not think it was irresponsible. In addition there were many cases of theft in this area recently when a group of people broke into the homes of people when they were not there. He did not want anyone to take what little he had in that house, since he had promised the tenant that the house he rented was furnished. When crossing the street, he started looking for a taxi, after about 5 minutes, he finally tried to stop one. It took Liam only 15 minutes to get to the bus stop to Los Angeles, luckily he already had his ticket. Even though America does not have many trains or buses; The country has many roads. Liam saw that there were still about 15 minutes to get out of the bus, went to a bank that was only about 100 meters from the bus stops. Luckily, to get to the bank there were only 3 people before him, to get to the window. The bank withdrew. $ 6,500, which were all the savings I had. He grimaced when he noticed that there were only $ 34 left in his account.

Liam, receiving the cash from the young woman, proceeded to check the money twice, because it had been on the news that they discovered a person who worked in cash and who was delivering counterfeit money to people who were going to withdraw money from their After seeing that everything was fine, Liam returned to the bus terminal.

After arriving at the end of the buses, Liam realized that the passengers were going to Los Angeles, delivering their bags to the bus attendant, and some of them delivered their bus ticket to the terramosas to board the bus. Seeing this, Liam went slowly with his suitcase, to the door of the bus where they boarded the passengers, he did not have to deliver his suitcase to the baggage handlers because he could fit perfectly in the seat with him.

When Liam was about to take his bus ticket to Terramosa to get to his seat, he was stopped by security guards at the bus terminal, Liam was told he had to check his belongings. Liam thought it was very strange, he suddenly realized that the passengers were staring at him, Liam also realized that he was the only one who was going to come up with his luggage in his hand and realized why they arrested.

"Young man, please come on this side, we have to verify if your body has something that could harm people, cooperate with us, I would not want any problems, right, sir?" Said one of the two men with a serious face on his face.

"Sure, officers": Liam said, with a slight smile.

The two officers proceeded to verify that one officer checked his suitcase, while the other checked Liam, found only clothes, shoes, perfume and a laptop in the suitcase, while Liam only found a phone and a wad of bills, for which the officers were surprised since it was not a small amount for a teenager like Liam.

"Young man, you can continue with your trip, you can get on the bus," said one of the officers.

Fortunately, Liam was lucky not to touch him, corrupt officials. Because if he had touched corrupt officials, , they would have made any problem, they would have accused him of being a thief in order to take away the money, there were cases in his previous world, where that had happened.

"Thank you, officers," said Liam, with a slight sigh.

After a few minutes the bus was ready to leave, the trip would be about 5 hours, so Liam decided to sleep until he got to Los Angeles.
