More Than This

A young white Polish boy drags Seth backward and urges him to hide from “the Driver,” the entity driving the black van. A Black English teenage girl tells Seth that the Driver will kill him if the Driver sees him. Seth is shocked and confused, but their evident fear makes him comply. They get on bikes and ride away from the van, which follows in their direction looking for them. The group hides and Driver comes close but does not find them. The young Polish boy cries in the older girl’s arms with relief.

The two teenagers introduce themselves as Regine and Tomasz. Seth wonders whether they are really there or if his mind simply created them, but he decides to follow them despite whether or not they are real.

Seth, Regine, and Tomasz try to leave the neighborhood, but the van is still patrolling. They escape the Driver by riding over a narrow bridge that the van cannot pass over.
