English as a Second Language #1

Woodhaven, Queens...AKA Cali, Colombia. I was called "T-Shirt" or "Teacher" depending on which student was speaking. This is Jóse. Seriously, though. He has a son. With good manners. Ironically I never approached any teacher of mine ever in any institution after class, let alone walk them to the train. In this instance, I thoroughly enjoyed walking with Jose, at times Fredy, and mostly Francisco, to the elevated J-train on the long commute home...New York sprawls, but at least I speak English pretty.
