The Silent Battle of the Open Window

So I receive an order at the airport and a couple gets into the car. We are driving on a highway and at some moment I realize that there is a strong draft. Turns out, they opened a window and were sitting silently.

The draft was quite strong, but I couldn’t say a word because they were VIP clients. After 20 minutes, the girl asks, “Can we close the window, please?” Suddenly I remembered I was airing the car out after washing it, and perhaps didn’t close all the windows.

They weren’t saying anything and neither was I. Darn introverts.
