I boarded the double deck 28. As it was the 'fang gong' time,
the bus was crowded at the first level. I walked to the part where
it was just before the staircase and stoned for awhile. After that,
i said 'excuse me' so i can get up to the second floor.
When i was halfway up the staircase, another woman who was carrying
alot of things, was coming down. People were still boarding the bus
and there was no space at the first floor already and my leg was
bruised, causing difficulty moving down again, so i flatted myself
against the 'curve' of the staircase, which was quite wide. There
is still alot of room to move. Then, the woman stopped for awhile
and seemed to make nasty comments about me, then got down. When she
reached the first floor, the door was closing and there are alot of
people blocking the entrance. So, she missed her stop. She then
turned back and gave me a nasty blink.
My mother said that it's her fault as she got down late when people
are already going up the staircase, and blinking at people isn't
very kind.
My father said that it's my fault as I should get down so that she
could get down more easily. But wouldn't that take more time?
Someone pressed the bell when the 'door is closing' sign is red,
but the bus driver didn't reopen the door.
Who's fault do you think it was? My fault or the woman's?
