a Random Smile

Something worth sharing.

I was on the phone with my girlfriend while boarding my bus home at AMK earlier on and this chubby guy greeted me, "Hi," with an expression that seemed to say, "Long time no see!"

Apparently, I had no idea who this guy was and I made no effort to return the courtesy. After I took my seat @ the back of the bus, he seem to be embarrassed, probably due to the fact that I made him look like a fool for saying hi to a stranger.

I did a quick assessment of what just happened. Nope, he is no aquaintance of mine and this was what I did :

As he stood up and prepared to alight from the bus for his stop, he turned his head into my direction, with a look of hope.

I smiled and gave him a wave.
He waved back and smiled.

A smile that concluded my day with good spirits.
