The SM Sequel

A week ago the urge to go to SM was great that I had to sit down and think a 100 times if I should give in. It was a beautiful evening so I opted to go. It seems SM is beckoning me to its folds. I thought why not? Anyway the following day is a non-working day. So off I went and strolled from one store to the other without buying anything.

When I got tired walking around, I decided to go home but found myself in a very long queue for a cab. It was raining heavily that people wanted to get a cab from there.There were about a hundred people waiting for their turn to get a cab. I joined the line and waited for half an hour before I finally found myself about to ride a cab. 

Suddenly, a woman in her late 20s approached me requesting if I can allow her go before me explaining that she has a visitor at home and she needed to go home immediately. I looked at her and said “I do not think I can do that, look at the long queue of people who have patiently waited for almost an hour. I do not think it is fair to them. If you like, you can take the cab with me, drop me at my place and direct the cab to where you are going. That is the only way I can help you”

She looked at me like I said a bad word and left. I smiled to myself and the man behind me said “what does she think she is? Everybody is hurrying to go home. She should have taken your offer” I didn’t know the man next to me in the line was listening to the whole conversation.

Lesson? There are always choices…
My Lesson? Do not talk to strangers  hehehe…
