You know those days when everything seems to be going right for you? When you manage to reach the bus stop and nobody stains your crisp shirt.
While you’re there chilling, you see one really nice person and both of you start a conversation.
A bus comes and both of you enter. You are even headed for the same place. Must be a sign from the universe. Must be potential bae.
Then you want to enter Danfo and the conductor looks like this.
But you don’t care, because you’re with a pinging baby girl. You enter the bus fast so you can sit beside her, at the back of the bus. Everything is going as planned.
Then the conductor says, “Money for front”. You check for your wallet, but its not there.
“Oga, wey your money?” He’s hovering over you now.
You want to give him excuse but he’s already looking into your soul like.
You want to tell him that you had money in your wallet before someone pick-pocketed you at the bus stop. You want to tell him that this your starched shirt is not just packaging, that you actually have money, not like you’re rich, but you can pay transport. But in your head, this is his response.
And again.
So you just maintain. Everybody in the bus is looking at you like.
And someone beside you stretches out money to pay. “For two,” she says. It is the girl from the bus stop.
You want to thank her but your mouth just keeps hanging like bad signal.
She just smiles at you and comes down at the next bus stop. And you know for the rest of your life, she’s going to remember you as that guy she helped inside bus.
What is your worst bus stop story?
