Lacey (and Edward)
Lacey sits at the window. Edward pops up in the seat behind her.
Edward: (into her ear) Hello.
Lacey: (jumps) Ugh! You again? Why do you do that?
Edward: (smiles, showing fake fangs) Because I can. What’s your friend’s name again?
Lacey: Andrea?
Edward: Yes. That one. Is she still in love with me?
Lacey: (rolls her eyes) Yes. But I have no idea why. She really needs to …
Edward: Would she dye her hair for me?
Lacey: (without interruption) … stay away from y … What did you say?
Edward: Do you think she’d dye her hair blond?
Lacey: What the hell for?
Edward: (looks up at the ceiling) Oh, no reason.
Lacey: (narrows her eyes) You want her to look like that Bella chick you’ve been trying to get, don’t you.
Edward: No.
Lacey: Then why?
Edward: I just happen to like … I mean, I prefer … No reason. Can you ask her to dye her hair and meet me on the bus Tuesday night?
Lacey: No.
Edward: When will she be back on the bus?
Lacey: Not telling.
Edward: (after a moment of silence) Do you want to be blond?
Lacey: No!
Edward: (under his breath) Damn.
Next stop: Sunday, March 25th, 10:00am

I’d have an urge to lecture Edward, but an even better urge to give Lacey a thumbs up.

I love these little slices and bits of life, Linda. It’s a lot like being back on a commuter bus.

Thanks, Allan. 🙂 Some of these are a bit “out there,” but I remember some of them from my commuting days as being realistic. None, however, are based on true stories unless otherwise noted.

They are entertaining, no matter the source.
