One thing we all can agree is scary, is getting in a public transport at night, especially when there's only one person inside with us.

I'm sitting on the first row to the door, holding my keys inside my jacket pocket. My stop is at the end and all the stations in between are empty. And there's only one man in the subway, he has his head down, lifting it a bit occasionally.

The subway moved slowly, making the ride seem longer than already is. I was almost getting up to leave when we stopped midway to the end. I thought it was waiting for another subway to pass, or because we would arrive to early and mess up the schedules. But then the lights went off an I heard something crawling up our carriage. I picked my phone to see no service down here. The man sitting a few rows in front of me didn't seen bothered, his head remained down, freaking me even more. We stayed like that for about 5 minutes, when the subway started to move again.

The doors opened and I basically ran out os that place. I message my mom telling her I would be home in 10 minutes. I sighed in relieve when she answered me. She was asking how I got here, because the last subway passed a hour ago.
