BUS STOP CHAT
Overheard At The Bus Stop
It is not often Don takes a bus from our Ha Yeung village to the Hang Hau MTR station. He drives or I drive him there. But on the infrequent occasions, usually on cool autumn mornings, he enjoys his hike up the 45 degree incline from our home to the top of the hill where the bus stop is.
While standing there, huffing and puffing and trying to get immersed in catching up world news on his iPad, he heard someone trying to get his attention.
Monkeyfriend: Pst, pst. Hey you, what are you doing?
Donman: Reading news.
Monkeyfreind: I don’t own an iPad.
Donman: Would you like to take a look.
Monkeyfriend: Thanks, I’m not too keen on world news. We have plenty happening on our end of the forest. Are you waiting for the bus?
Donman: Yes, and you, catching a one too?
Monkeyfriend: No, I can’t, I ate my octopus card for dinner last night.
