The Right Passenger
The Right Passengers
The taxi driver Nadeem Riaz, is driving through Manhattan looking for new passengers. Then on a corner he picks up a couple, Riaz thinks that the boy could be from South Asia because of his brown skin. The girl I Caucasian.
Riaz thinks that the couple may have had too much to drink, and that is the reason for the boy to be showing token respect for Riaz. Then Riaz starts hearing lips smacking and the uncomfortable sound of cloth squirming, and because of that he decides to lengthen the trip.
Riaz asks the boy if he is married, but the boy just waves him off, which makes Riaz want to kick them out of the taxi.
The girl gets of first, so it is just the boy and Riaz left in the taxi. They start talking about how they both use the country, and the boy says that even if he trifles with this one girl, Riaz is messing with the whole country.
When they arrive to the boy’s street he is sleeping, and when he gets out of the car he do not pay Riaz the $42.80 he owe for the ride.
Nadeem Riaz is a taxi driver who has been driving taxi in eight years, he is an immigrant in America and has a green card so he can work.
Riaz seems to be a nice man, who believes in tradition and that the boy he is driving should be in a marriage, set up by his parents.
Riaz believes in God, and listens to the Holy Quran so he is Muslim.
He begins making assumptions about the boy; he should be married, he is probably from a rich family and his parents are probably fat and sated. But he admits to himself that he does not really know and he cannot be sure. By admitting that he does not know anything about the boy and his family shows that he is not a man with prejudices.
One of the times when the boy talks to Riaz with a brash tone, Riaz is thinking that if he were a better man, he would kick them out of his taxi. But he decides to finish his job. This shows that he is a man who takes his job serious.
