You've had a rough day and you're in your room alone, lost in thought, staring at the ceiling and tossing a ball. Suddenly, a notification on your phone snaps you out of your daze.

"Bro, what's up? Listen, remember I told you that my family and I are going on a road trip around the country? Dad didn't come, as usual, and we need someone to take his place, otherwise the trip will be lame, and we can't put it off any longer, you know? Help, bro, come with us. My mom agrees"

Fifteen minutes later, you were standing at the end of your street with a hiking backpack on. An RV rounded the corner and, a not new but reliable motorhome, stopped in front of you with its horn honking.
