*Citations from Webster Online Dictionary*
My encounter with a mentally unsound being, greatly disturbs me. The aftermath, left me disconcerted. Unkempt, bespectacled, and adorned with a backpack. To add on my misforture, to have bump into him TWICE. First, on a wet day. Second, on a monday morning (read: double the dosage of blues). Definitely not a very pleasant way to start my day.
If looks can kill, I'll probably be dead by now. His stare, cold and empty. Transfixed unwavering onto you, watching your every movement and actions. My nightmare was not over or so I thought when my bus came. Apparently not wanting the chance for him to be seated by my side, I moved myself to occupy the outer seat. Itchiness caused me to clear my throat with a cough. THEN....just like he did the first time (to imitate my actions), initiating a cough, splattering his saliva all over my arm and part of my face. Itchiness ensued which caused my arm in redness due to wiping and scratching violently to remove any traces of his unpleasant discharge. What's more abhorrent is that he seem pretty gratified in his own actions.
It's shuddering, slightly traumatised and queasy for me throughout the bus ride which seemed to be exceedingly long for such a short distance.
Since I am not due to return for work (read: I quitted) unless I am really down on my luck, allayed any fears of meeting this loathsome weirdo anymore. Indeed, nothing can be more unpleasing than this. Need some TLC at this moment, to tranquilize the mind. Not paranoid, but I think I need to go cleanse myself again.
