One fine wednesday night.
The breeze was cool after the rain.
I was happily walking back after buying bread.
As I pass by the food court, I noticed that there is some one laying down on the floor, opposite the food court.
I approach the person.
Initially, I thought that it must be some uncle sleeping on the floor.
Then when I was nearer, I noticed that it is a lady. Complete with hand bag and things that she bought.
I quicken my pace, thinking she may have fainted or sth.
Was wondering why is everybody avoiding her..
When I was about to reach her, I heard a loud sobbing sound from her.
out of my mind, images of people who are of not sound mind, flashes in my mind.
I had met some in the country, don't really want to meet more.
Hesitated whether to help or not.
Then, she slowly sat up.
Hm.. looks all fine to me. except that she is sobbing very loud now.
Walked pass the road.
Feel uneasy, decided to observe the lady to see if she will be ok.
She got up unsteadily, and started to walk.
The way she walk is not normal, like people who suffered stroke and recovered but with some effect on movement.
She sat down on stairs, took out handphone and make a call.
concluded that she was of sound mind, maybe just cannot get over her newly found "disability".
She cried for a while more, wipe away tears, got up.
Waited to cross the road, crossed the road and head towards Hdb flat.
That is when I decided to continue my walk back.
Sad world. firstly because there are people who have to suffer like that.
Secondly, of the people around the food court who just look at the whole incident like normal occurance.
thirdly, of those people who is watching free show, entertainment..
fourth, for my doubt in helping her... sigh....
