Based on the novel/movie regretting you

While driving to your mum's birthday (that you're late to) you see someone near the sign, it was Miller Adams, he's waiting for you to stop the car and talk to him, he needs a ride apparently, you were driving past him and look at the car mirror. You see his face disappointed as your car passes, you sigh and reverse the car in guilt. His face lights up seeing you.

"Clara, you're here, can you drop me off at the movie theater I'm late for my shift." He smiled at you.
