Pain P.O.V ~
I rolled over thinking about what I had planned for today and slipped out of bed. I grabbed my phone off my dresser to check my calendar when I realized something was odd about today. "Fuck !" She said out loud. Oh man I was supposed to go meet up with Ti around 10 AM but I woke up a hour late. Ti is one of my closest friends since high school he's always supported me from the hardest break up to my most celebrated moments in life. *Dial number*
Ti- hello?
Pain- Hey ! Sorry I'm late I'll be on my way in about a hour I just woke up
Ti- It's all good. Be sure to bring the paper work so we can finish part of writing out your business plan.
Pain- Okay Ti I'll see you in a bit.
I rushed into the bathroom turned the  showered on and begin to brush my teeth while the steam built up. As I was brushing my teeth I looked in the mirror and notice small detail about my face. I had small freckles going across my face underneath my eyes. My dark brown eyes twinkled in the mirror with the amount of the shining on them. My brown completion looks like the tone of cappuccino. After brushing my teeth I started to undress myself I'm pretty slim with small curves. I put one foot inside the tub while the hot water splashed  along my leg and I step inside and closed the curtain. The water seemed so peaceful running along my skin and down the drain as I breathe the fog built up more and more. I started to take down my 6 braids in the shower so that my scalp could feel the moisture. After 10 mins of relaxing in the shower I began to wash up and I hopped out.
I wrapped my blue towel around my body and went directly to my dresser and searched for something to wear. After getting dressed I looked at myself in the mirror my long sleeve turtle neck half shirt hugged my body and my skinny jeans brought out my body figure more I smile and spinned around out of excitement of getting myself together. I shot Ti a text and headed out the door to go stand at the bus stop. 

The wind blew strongly while the sun was beating down on the small city. The crystal blue sky glided among the plumped cotton candy clouds.  
It was early spring cars were cruising along the streets, children playing while music was blasting around the neighborhood. Her topical Saturday morning. While at the bus stop a young man came and stood their with pain it was pretty quiet at first until pain phone rung.

Pain- hello?
Ti- Hey Pain are you coming??
Pain- Of course uh the bus hasn't came yet I'm still waiting
Ti- be sure to enter the building through the back ..
Pain- Ti you tell me this Every single time haha
Ti- I just wanna make sure ha
Pain- I brought the paper work as well
Ti- great I'll see you in a few
Pain- alright bye now.
Ti- bye

The bus pulled up along the side of pain and the man and pain got on first she put her 1.75 in the machine and sat down in the front row
Before the bus pulled off the man put a 1.50 in the machine but he was missing a quarter. He felt all over his pockets before realizing he didn't have it.
The man- Sir I don't have the remaining balance
Bus driver- well I guess your gonna have to get off
The man- I practically paid for the ride are you serious?
Bus driver- you didn't pay in full

The bus driver open the doors to let the man off the bus . Right before the man turned around to get off pain spoke up

Pain- I have a quarter!

Everyone on the bus directed their attention towards pain and the man. He glanced at her. He smirked then spoke to the driver

The man- you heard the lady, She has a quarter.
Pain handed the man the quarter and  he placed it inside the machine and he took a seat across from pain. The man stared at pain the whole ride he studied her with questions what made her help him and why? The man seen how she carried herself with confidence and but with such a quiet nature made him think of her mysteriously. He hasn't ever seen her around before he was born and raised in the small city and was well known in the area. He crossed his arms at the sight of her tapping her fingers among the seat eagerly waiting to get off the bus

As I tap my nails against the seat I notice the man watching me. I tried to ignore him but he began to make me nervous. Why was he looking at me like that. Did I do something wrong? was my clothes on inside out? .. did I have something on my face. I couldn't put my finger on it. After a while I pulled the string to notify the bus driver I was getting off at the next stop. When the bus came to a complete stop I got up and tried to rush off the bus but something grabbed my wrist

The man- Thank you.
Pain- uuh you're welcome.

I snatched my wrist back and looked at him one more time before exiting the bus.
