Today, I went to a library to study English. It was my first time going to there so I didn't have my reader's pass. So, I had to make it through speaking English with a member of staff of the registration. I was nervous because I can't understand native speakers talking in English well but I should try to make such conversations.
In fact, I couldn't understand it but fortunately, I could get my pass smoothly. It was thanks to this member of staff's kindness.
After studying, I got a bus to go home. When I was waiting at the bus stop, a man said to me "Give me money." I shook my head and ignored him who looked like a junky and had had a large print of tattoo on his arms. 5 minutes later,the bus arrived and I got on but he didn't move from the bus stop's chair. I was greatly relieved at the sight andsat down an upper floor's seat on the bus. I could look down to him from the window. However, he suddenly stood upand got on the bus. I said in my mind "Oh, my!" Unfortunately, he came up from the stairs and unbelievably, he sat down next to my seat! He had a really terrible stink but I couldn't move from next to the window because it seemed like a dangerous situation. I decided to take care of my bag and pockets and wait until he gets off .
I looked at his hands which hold a black plastic bag so I was frightened even more because there might be a knife in there!
During the ride, he told other passengers the same as he told me that "Give me money." but there wasn't such a person, who would do what he wanted.
I had waited a long time but he didn't move from next to me and still stunk.
I thought about if he would show his knife, and how I could escape from him. I prepared for the situation and simulated the way of escaping in my mind.
Then, he showed me his left arm which had a tattoo! I said "What?" He said "Time." I showed him my watchand he said "Six." I was very nervous but my stop was next.
I stood up and said "Excuse me." to him. Fortunately, he made way for me quickly so I could get out of the situation! Obviously, I really took care of my bag and pockets when I went in front of him.
Eventually, he didn't do anything bad but I was annoyed. I hope never to come across such a situation again!
