Glancing at her watch as it struck 9pm. She was cutting it fine. "Am I late? Have I missed it?" she gasped to herself after running down the stairs and appearing on an abandoned, dark and wet platform.
"Come on, Come on. Don't tell me I've missed it" Starting to panic now she begins to look around. The floor, which seemingly is meant to be eggshell white, is covered in chewing gum and mud, around the bin there are fag nubs. The walls are made of what looks like Brick and bad tiling the bottom of the wall is covered in muck and the top covered in cobwebs.
She finally see it…the time board hanging from the high shelter roof which glows up with orange writing as it lights up a little patch of the platform. Shuffling closer her only hope is that she didn't miss it.
"Last train from platform 4 is running 30 minutes late" a sigh of relief is relased "better late than never I suppose".
At that moment she realized how quiet it was; maybe too quiet. Gathering herself, catching her breath positioning herself next to the wall, her hands slide into her pockets with her bag slumped over one shoulder, She can see the stairs that she almost fell down, the beaming time board and one side of the tracks.
15 minutes had past, lost in deep thoughts, crackling laughter is heard coming from up the stairs… she is no longer alone.
This old couple appeared, couldn't have been any older than 70, they were hooking arms and giggling away. The man was dressed in a black suit with a bow tie on. He was walking so proudly next to the woman it was if he was taking her to prom for the first time. She was wearing a colorful vintage dress with a plain scarf wrapped around her arms; she was chuckling like a naughty child.
The man noticed the young slouched blonde ; he nodded his head and let off a grin. "We're celebrating our 40th anniversary tonight." His rough, dry and loud voice echoed over to me.
Her whole face lights up as her voice comes to life "Congratulations!" They went back to whispering and giggling together.
She bows her head and thinks to her self 'I hope I'm that happy when I'm that old'
More time passes, the thudding of metal and the screeching of wheels becomes within hearing distance seconds before the head of the train appears going past her as it slowly starts to come to a stop. The doors open, the light gushes out onto the platform, the still giggling couple step on first.
Standing at the sliding doors of the train the cart appears to be empty bar the couple… taking deep breath in while inhaling the smell of oil and air freshener she takes the step in and is grateful that she made it in time.
Taking a seat next to a window the sound of wheels starting to chafe as the train fills with power and starts to move. The sound of the train hides the laughter of the couple.
Staring out the window, weak and tired she tells herself "now the journey finally begins" as the train chases the tracks.
