Sam stands beside a city bus with a large travel bag and asks the driver for directions.

Sam stands at a bus stop with a big bag. He wants to go to the train station. A bus comes, but it is number eight.

"Does this bus go to the station?" he asks the driver.

"No. You need number six."

Sam sits down. A woman next to him points across the street.

"Number six stops over there," she says.

Sam looks. He can see a sign with a big six. He thanks the woman and crosses the street at the lights.

The next bus is number six. Sam gets on and sits by the window. He can see the woman. He smiles and waves.
