am sitting in school bus where so many students are scrambling at the door to get in, so as to get the best seats.then a girl(Miriam) at the opposite seat asks me,
"is that seat taken?"
i tell her no. she goes ahead and asks me to save it for her, which i do but then another girl(Sara) comes in and asks me,
"is the seat taken,"
i say
"yes it is,"
she goes ahead and seats down saying
"there is no way am going at the back seats, whoever the seat was meant for can seat at the back,"
i dont really know how to respond to her but just smile. when Mirriam who asked me to seat for her hears that comment, she starts throwing words at her and all i could do is smile.
Sara goes ahead and defends herself:
"i too have paid to sit anywhere in this bus. plus there is no way am going to seat back since i came in first, while your friends wait outside comfortably to take the same seat,"
she even tries to push her friend to sit on the next seat that Mirriam was saving
i do appraud her courage and sense deep inside as i dont want to get in the middle.
it all makes sense, first come first serve. i wished someone could have stood up for the other two seats Mirriam was saving for her friends.
