short story 1

Sometime back in June:

This old lady was lining in front of me at McDonalds in the train station, she was trying to explained to the cashier/waitress what she wants to have, and this cashier/waitress looked really irritated and impatience because she was slow, and she didn't really know the proper terms (like Filet o Fish or mc Chicken), bless her.

I find it really sad to see how cruel people can be. She could've been more friendly, or at least helpful but instead, she put on this really annoyed face to this poor old lady.

She bought 2 cheese burgers, i didn't know if it was because she can't find a seat, or she prefered to stand, she stood there, slowly unwrapping her burger(i didn't want to stare) and start talking to herself(kind of), and then she took out a small bottle of sparkling wine(looks like) and shoveled down her throat like drinking water.

I didn't really know what i felt back there, but the image was kind of imprinted on my mind, and i can't seem to forget it.

Sadness? Maybe.
