Sensation

In the middle of the station stood a tall woman staring into the thin air. What could she possibly be staring at? What could be wrong with her? so many questions ran through Lora's heart. The woman soon bursted out in tears, she wept so deeply trying not to make too much sound. She didn't seem to care about her surrounding. Ofcourse people stared but no one was brave enough to come close. She was well dressed and didn't seem to need help. Lora looked at the woman from time to time, since she was waiting to catch her train. Suddenly a lady dressed in a yellow blouse and a green skirt walked up to the woman and handed her a napkin to dry her tears and then walked away.

The woman accepted and thanked the lady. Lora thought to herself, oh how thoughtful of this lady.

what was Lora and all the others thinking that made them ignore the weeping woman? Fear of the unknown? Fear of a stranger? Who would go first?

Lora's train arrived and she located her seat. As she turned around, there was the same woman standing behind her no longer in tears. She had a seat beside Lora.

It was a long trip. Soon the woman's phone rang and she picked up her phone. She consoled whoever it was on the other end and told the person to stay strong. She appeared to be unaffected by whatever it was that happened. She displayed strength and told the person she was on her way.
