This morning I was riding the train with Sheri and it was packed like usual so we were standing in the aisle. Without warning, the driver threw on the emergency brakes, sending dozens of us flying off our feet. I flew forward and slammed into some big guy's lap and Sheri knocked over a girl in front of her. Alarms sounded from everywhere. Within 15 seconds everyone was standing and perfectly composed again; it was like nothing had happened.

Sheri's lived here her whole life and this was a first. I told her that Kelly would have been traumatized. I got off one stop before Sheri and she sent a text saying that they did it again.
