Tom bought an electric bike.

Tom rides his electric bicycle to work every day.

"Phew, I made it." "Welcome back. You're sweating like crazy." "Yeah. A guy on an electric bike was about to pass me, so I really gave it my all." "And? How'd that go?" "I lost."

"Those guys on electric bikes, it's not fair." "What's the matter?" "It's just, here I am pedaling hard, dripping with sweat, and they come along passing me all calm and triumphant like. It's so infuriating!"

"Welcome back. You're later than usual." "Yeah. The person who's always passing me on their electric bike had their battery die and was pushing it, so I was helping them. Electric bikes are super heavy; it surprised me." "Hmm. By the way, this kid, is it a girl or boy?" "Huh?" "Never mind. I was just thinking, 'That's how love begins, isn't it?'"
