.: Missed Connection :.

On the Brown Line heading north. I got on at Armitage and you were sitting by the doors when I got on.

Me: Big poofy winter jacket and a plain old black hat. And glasses.
You: Wool (?) trenchcoat and a stripy sweater and a long knitted scarf. Kinda Doctor Who-ish.

I stood by the doors when I got on. You must have seen me on the verge of tears. I tried to keep staring out the door windows. But I noticed you across the way. You were reading my Angry Little Asian Girl bag and you smiled. It made me smile too, a little. I just wanted to thank you for the lovely smile. But maybe we'll meet again soon.
