Wednesday- 7:30am
Kagome arrived at the bus stop early to catch her C122 bus. At times like these she would take out her ipod and latest book she was reading to see if she could sneak a chapter in before she started uni. She had recently had her midyear break and since it was Wednesday she had finally gotten back into her regular schedule and was no longer waking up in the morning exhausted and wishing she had chosen to just follow in the family business instead of deciding on a higher education. Smiling she got ready to immerse herself in the thrilling story of a time travelling girl but instead she spotted something in her peripheral vision, an ostentatious shade of red.
Whipping her head up she scrutinized a red shirted man and with a jerky laugh she indeed recognized it as the golden-eyed man wearing the exact same shirt from three weeks previously. At her laugh the man turned to look at her and then did a quick double glance and sighed. Kagome noticed yet again he had a timetable in his hands and immediately went over to him.
'Need help?' she asked politely. The man scowled.
'No.'
Kagome raised an eyebrow disbelievingly and decided to help him anyway.
'Ok, 'C' buses are to the city, 'M' buses are to the hospital and 'D' buses are to the country.' She simply said and gave him a quick pat on the shoulder and wandered back to the bus stop seat to grab her bag congratulating herself on her coolness. The C122 bus idled near the kerb and Kagome took out her ticket she glanced back to wave goodbye to the man but was startled to find him directly behind her timetable in one hand and a bus ticket in the other. His expression screamed 'don't say a word' so Kagome swallowed her laugh and any comments and just inserted her ticket into the machine and went to go sit down but came to a stop when she heard the telltale sign of someone inserting their ticket into the machine incorrectly. Smiling she turned to the offender who was of course the red shirted man.
'Need help?' Kagome asked and all she got was a glare, not bothered in the least she went and took the ticket out of his startled fingers and inserted it properly.
'There you go!' she said chipperly and the man grimaced. Kagome laughed.
'By the way I don't know if I've told you but I'm Kagome… and your welcome'
The man just grunted and went to sit near the driver. Kagome in the process of pulling out her ipod decided to give a pearl of wisdom to the man.
'Hey its better to sit further back cause you'd have to give up your seat for a pregnant woman, the elderly or people with a disability.'
'No way!' the man exclaimed jumping up from his seat. Kagome nodded in solemnly and tapped a sign explaining the rules.
'That sucks!' the man grumbled and trudged his way up to the back and the few people on the bus quietly laugh. Smiling herself Kagome sat in a seat not too far back but not too far forward and put her ear buds in her ears and waited to get off the bus at university.
