It looks like it’s raining as trees sway following the
rhythm of the wind. I noticed that many passersby were waiting to walk to the MRT train, so I let them all stay. I was observing the place when this white woman caught my attention. I know that she’s a foreigner, and looking at her state, it looks like she is from a wealthy family. Without a second thought, I walked in front of her and asked her if she would ride a taxi. She looked at me, so I smiled, offering to go out into the rain for her, and she smiled back but said no. I wonder why she rejected my offer. Is it because she might feel bad to others that I gave her special treatment, or there’s someone who will pick her up? I thought she needed a taxi, but sadly, she turned down my hospitality. She has pale skin and black hair and judging at her tone, she sounds like an English speaker. She wasn’t rude when she rejected me so I hope that she can get to her destination safely.
