" Humans, pieces of a puzzle we call life, when the pieces get lost, we often throw the puzzle away "
School was cancelled that day because of the earlier incident with the guy who cut his hand badly on the window so I went home.
Looking around there were many people talking to each other and walking past me and I was looking at the sun in the sky.
The bright light made me put my hand to my eyes to cover some of the light, the sun was warming me up quite a bit and continuing to admire the sun I kept walking until I finally took my eyes away from it when my eyes started to hurt.
" Normally, a puzzle without a few pieces is good to throw in the trash but life without people, would be a quiet one " I say in my thought and continue walking towards the subway station.
Walking down the crowded stairs of the subway station, I buy a ticket and cross to the other side of the station. Walking quietly to the actual subway station, I hear the sound of the train coming into the station so I just wait for it to come.
- Many people have died here, because of the stupidity of others or themselves.
The train arrives at the station and opens its doors so I step inside and sit on a chair waiting for the train to leave the station. As time goes by, more and more people get inside.
Watching every aspect of people, they either read or look at their phone and few of them have fun with their parents. It's noisy on the train so I put earphones in my ears and turn on the music.
Once I turned on the music in my earphones I just looked around and the train started moving. The sound of the tracks could be heard even with the music playing in my earphones.
Nevertheless, I looked around, everything was crowded, typical of a Tuesday in Japan, nothing unusual, ignoring the fact that a little girl was looking at her phone and dropped it on the floor.
- People make mistakes, even so, some may take their mistakes as a form of foolishness, children in particular make mistakes more like an adult.
Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.
I got up from my seat and walked over to that little girl and picked up the phone off the floor and handed it back to her.
"Be careful with it next time" I tell her and she thanks me and smiles.
- Sometimes you have to help even if you don't want to.
Instead of taking my seat I decided to go to the other wagon which was quite crowded. Continuing to walk to the other carriage I noticed a panicked guy looking left and right quickly with his eyes.
- I'm no expert, but the human body says everything about our mind. If you don't know how to hide something, you'll be trapped like a bug under the sole of your foot.
I continued on to the next wagon, where nothing strange seemed to happen at first glance. But since anything is possible, I expected something to happen even if it didn't.
- When a person's legs are shaking, they are scared, scared of something they have done or happened.
I kept going to the next wagon, here, here were two policemen talking about a recent missing person case.
- Yes, people can always be naive and get into trouble and their disappearance is imminent.
Also in the same wagon is an elderly lady standing next to a young guy who obviously has no medical problems.
- One more aspect of humanity is that people are idiots who lack empathy.
I continued on to the next wagon where there were fewer people and many seats were empty. After a little observation of my own on the train window I sit down on a seat.
- People are fragile toys that with a little effort you can control.
Eventually the train reaches the first station where several people enter and sit down next to me, one with a basketball, another with a bag of ice cream.
Other people were looking into their phones and others were reading books, nothing special but just typical human activities. I was looking at my phone and a notification popped up in my email.
The message read ' You have been accepted into the Kurogawa School chess group, I am the President of the student council and also the organizer of this group. I will wish, once the summer vacation is over to participate in the test to officially become a member of the group, I wish you good luck '.
I was calmly looking at the message and I got off email and hung up my phone. Still with the music playing I looked out the train window.
The sound of the tracks is loud and the speed it is going is high and you can clearly see that if you look out the window.
- Another opportunity to start " socialising " however, I wonder who I will play that test match with.
I finally get home and go to the kitchen where I make myself a sandwich and scroll through my phone. Finding nothing important to read or watch.
Lacking something to read or watch I simply eat in silence. While eating I am also looking out the kitchen window and the light outside hits me in the face.
- I remember I didn't see this light so often, I was mostly sitting in complete darkness and studying but now I have freedom.
I'm looking out the window and suddenly I hear the sound of an ambulance siren and I go to see what's going on.
When I look it was simply the ambulance going through the traffic column at high speed.
- There may be good people in this world but they are destroyed by society.
I opened the window and took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly watching the ambulance disappear from the traffic.
All the cars get in the right column and continue driving as normal and nothing super happens and I just look out the window at the traffic and smell the smell of spring combined with the smell of pollution.
After all that I closed the window and went to finish my sandwich and after that I went to my room where I looked through my messages and after a while I put myself to bed and fell asleep.
