animal controllers

two hispanic guys and i/were waiting for a bus/at 4:14am
a few minutes ago a van-like vehicle pulled up/with “animal control specialists”/decaled on the side
a woman was driving/and she had a passenger who said nothing
she asked my companions if they wanted a ride
“no hablo inglés” one of them said
i asked her where she was going/and she indicated that i was not part/of the ride offer
after realizing she was wasting her time she left
internet magic enabled me to say/”ella quería saber si necesitabas un aventón“
they smiled and said Thanks in english
the bus arrived and we got on
and remained free
