How love works sometimes
That was a normal day for a college student who was using a public bus to go to school. The bus normally started empty since the boy used to enter from the very beginning. The boy liked sitting at the back of the bus and spending his time playing on his phone. After about three or four stops, a lady entered the bus and sat next to him. It was surprising since there were plenty seats available, he could not understand why she chose that particular seat.
Still, he assumed maybe that was her choice, she also liked sitting at the back.
He continued playing on his phone for some time until she started asking about his stop.
He told her it was about one or one and a half hours away. She asked if he traveled every day or he was going for something. He replied that he traveled every day because his college was far from his house. She responded saying she was also in college. She said she studied in a private college and stayed in PG and so didn't like moving up and down.
In the beginning, he thought that if he did not ask any question, everything would be okay. But he was wrong, once she found out his basic details, she started telling stories one after another. So he took out his phone and turned towards her. She said she was meeting her friend and then together they would visit the city zoo. She continued talking about her life, friendship with her friend, her likes and dislikes and even family matters. She said her mother always used to tell her that she talked too much and should control herself. She also said that boys always preferred girls who talked less and acted more.
After some time, she said his bus stop name and asked how many stops were left. When he looked outside and counted, he told her that the next stop was hers. She held her bag and said it was nice meeting him. She said she normally never talked much with strangers but his vibe was good so she talked so much. Those words stayed in his mind and he was smiling all through.
She ended by saying she was happy seeing him smile since she thought he did not know how to smile. Her bus stop came and she quickly got down from the bus. After she left, the bus was still full but somehow he felt lonely. During her talking, he thought she was a headache, but now those words stayed in his mind. He forgot to ask her name and she also forgot to ask his. He stopped using his phone and just watched her through the mirror.
That right folks is how love works sometimes.
