"I'd bet there's no one else in that girl's life willing to speak about these things."
Jerusalem, September 23 - A man who earns a living teaching Israelis - mostly adolescents - to operate a motor vehicle and to prepare them for earning a license decided today that the student taking her fourth lesson with him will respond positively, and turn her life around, if he, in his unique position of mentorship in her life, encourages her to lose some weight, sources within his vehicle reported.
Avi Nahari, 50, resolved this morning to comment negatively on the weight, figure, complexion, and sartorial choices of Adi Schultz, 16, when the latter had finished their 40-minute session in his 2015 Skoda Octavia. "I didn't want to say this before we dropped the other students off," he remarked, "but I think both of those boys would find you attractive if you'd drop about ten kilos, dress more stylishly, and do something about that acne."
Nahari congratulated himself on the drive home for offering help to the young lady. "Somebody had to say it," he reasoned. "I'd bet good money there's no one else in that poor girl's life willing to speak honestly about these things, which is why she hasn't done anything about them."
"She's cute, in a little kid sort of way," he noted. "But that's not what guys look for. I know what I look for, and it's not that. Plenty of teenage girls sit in this car, and I get a good look at all of them. Adi has nice blond hair and beautiful blue eyes. If she fixed herself up she'd be a knockout! Then I wouldn't mind so much if she wore tight jeans and tank tops in my car. I guess it's too bad the lesson schedule doesn't last long enough for me to see the results."
He then sat in open-mouthed reverie for close to three minutes.
The divorced father of two prides himself on the "parental" approach he takes toward his younger driving students. "I'm sure they find it reassuring that someone like me is looking out for them," he stated. "There are so many creepy men out there. So when I speak to them about important, personal things, here in the protective, closed space of the car, it's so much more effective and empowering for them."
At home, Ms. Schultz muttered a "Fine" to her mother's inquiry as to how the driving lesson went, then ran into her bedroom to avoid other family members' pervasive comments about her looks, effort at school, choice of entertainment, or other habits.
