A week later/ late Afternoon

Finally got on the train after waiting for what felt like an hour. My legs hurt from walking so much today at the open house, speaking to a lot of people. I enjoy when my boss sends me to do these open houses and not only Jess, but sometimes I can be there for way too long just like today. I was there in the morning all the way till now, five in the afternoon. The sun is already setting. Maybe at least I'll catch the sunset this time.

I leaned back onto my seat, next to the window, feeling my feet tingle from how tired they are. I don't know why I'm so tired today. Maybe because today was a house tour with three floors and not apartments like usual. Well there goes my exercise for this week! Not that I exercise much anyways.

I decided to catch up on my Instagram time meanwhile I get home in this forty five minute train ride. I went a little far today.

A smile formed on my face when I saw that Silje posted on her stories. It seems like she's posing in front of a window but I can't tell what kind of building it is. Then the next story is from five minutes ago. It's a video of her feet walking then showing her reflection in windows. There's text on it saying how a video will be out soon for 'out of my way'. Cannot wait for that!

I quickly got out my earphones from my bag, yes the earphones with strings, I know how bizarre. Started scrolling through a few Lisa and lena edits and also watched their stories. This made time go by a little quick. I didn't realize we were already at the next stop, not mine though of course. I sighed feeling my butt start to get numb. Okay what is seriously wrong with my body, it's so sensitive today. I stood up for a second then sat back down. That'll do it.

I decided to listen to cotton candy skies to help me relax and also just because I'm still thinking about her. It's only been a week since I've last seen her and I weirdly miss her. Yes, totally ignoring the fact that I don't even know this girl. But anything she posts, I'm there. And it gives me something to know about her like how she's doing and what she's up to. Since I don't talk to her at all, Just through her comment section sometimes at least.

I finally put down my phone, crossed my arms and leaned back onto the seat again. I made it on time to watch the doors shut. Some people still walking to a seat. So far I'm liking people from here. They're nice and to themselves but still approachable, Very calm. Didn't take me too long to look at everyone who sat in the area in front of me.

I closed my eyes for a few seconds to enjoy a favorite part of this song. My lips moved silently along to the lyrics. But then I remembered that I'm in public so I opened my eyes. I looked around again having a strange feeling in my body. It feels as if my body wants to look almost behind me. So I turned to stare at my next victims, just kidding. I just enjoy looking at people sometimes because they're so interesting.

I looked over to the row next to me, Two seats back, I see a familiar face. A girl with headphones on, her guitar case resting on the empty seat next to her but still with the strap on her arm, and her face is buried into her phone.
What are the odds of this happening to me? I'm listening to Yndling while on the train with her? Is this really happening?

I quickly turn back and covered my mouth with my two hands making my phone fall onto my lap. My phone didn't land right so it fell onto the ground along with my earphones that shot out of my ears. The sound of this accident was kind of loud in this quiet environment. I even noticed a few heads turn, but it's just a few elderly folks so I don't really mind.
