Mysterious Couple (1)

As the driver was fixing the tire, Anne felt bored. She was going to turn on her phone, when the old man beside her called her, "Where are you from, child?" She turned to look at him and said, "Just from the main city, came here for a holiday".

She couldn't, after all tell her true destination to any stranger, even if it was a kind looking person. He started to chat about where he was going, how his wife was waiting for him to return and blah blah blah.

Anne would've gotten annoyed usually but didn't. And listened to him rambling for almost twenty minutes, when suddenly the bus driver called out to everyone, "The tire is fixed. Thank you for you patience, dear passengers."

After that the bus started again on its journey. The old man probably realised that he talking too much, so he said with embarrassment, "Oh My! See how much I'm talking, you should've stopped me child, I wasted your time. My apologies!! Now, now go on and do what you were!"

Anne told him it was okay with a gentle smile but he kept saying that disturbing someone who's doing something is not good, it would disrupt their mindset and so on. Only after assuring him for a few times did he finally calm down.

The journey lasted for a few more hours before the driver stopped. After everyone got off the bus, it went away. Anne had booked herself a room in a hotel and was going to go there, when she suddenly received a phone call from the hotel.

The receptionist on the other side told her,"Excuse me, We're really sorry. But since you didn't check in at the time you booked it, the suite has been given to someone else. Our apologies. Have a nice day madam."

Anna speechlessly stared at her phone screen as she heard the receptionist hang up after saying two sentences.

She was actually frustrated because she knew it was the only hotel she could find in this remote area and it would take two hours for the next bus to come.

Just as she was about to call Joy and ask her to send a ride for her, someone in the crowd pushed her and another one walked on top of her fallen phone. Her phone was already low on battery and now it wasn't working.

She shouted at the person who apologized and went away in a hurry.
