Satisfying Revenge

As we all know, there aren’t any line ups for buses or skytrains; it is basically a competition on who can shove their way through the doors first. As I was waiting for the bus the other day, an old woman literally shoved me away just to stand on the spot where the door usually is when the bus stops. When I was young, I was taught to respect elders, but boy was I mad this time. I gave her the “I want to smash your head against the wall” stare. Having no other choice, I just stood somewhere else away from the crazy woman. Surprisingly when the bus finally arrived, the door was right in front of me. In my head I was thinking, “Haha, I get to get on the bus before you do old hag!” As I was giving the old woman my victory stare, she ran and pushed me away again! I couldn’t believe it! On the way home I felt awful about letting her off the hook. Perhaps God felt my anger, because when the old woman was heading towards the doors to leave the bus as the bus was in motion, she fell face flat onto the ground as the bus driver slammed onto the breaks. I couldn’t help it but laughed out loud. People on the bus didn’t know what happened before so they looked at me as if I was a heartless jackass. At the moment I didn’t care about what anyone thought of me, all I know was that I felt good.
