Reality?

Was suppose to work at Urgent pharmacy today but apparently the dates got mixed up and I ended up going home. Felt a lil lonely and phoned mom while waiting for the bus.

As I reached my stop , I couldn't help realise but how nice it was to walk at night. The cool breeze etc. An elderly gentleman was stopping at the same stop as me. We started walking towards our street and chatted for a bit before we parted ways. The first thing he asked me was my name, then what was I doing walking home alone at this hour, where are my parents  and if I'm alright. I must look really lost for him to notice me like that. lol.

Honestly, this was the first proper conversation I've had with another person face to face that's non work related and sincere this week. It didn't just feel like small talk , it felt a lil bit more than that. At the end of the conversation, he gave me a big hug :)  I guess this gave me more faith in humanity. For some reason , work has made me realize how apparent a dog-eat-dog world this is. And when I question it, the answer is always the same " ITS REALITY! GET OVER IT!".

Yeah , I definitely need a break next year.
