I'm basically frightened this morning, if that wasn't blatantly obvious. Of course, the one thing that was going good, I'm pretty sure I managed to relax and calm down. Oh-C.

My hubby didn't come to office, so I have to commute and take the jeepney by myself.Riding the jeepney is an act I'm not really used to, since my hubby has his car and he drive for me going to the office and fetch me going back home, on a daily basis. This is such a bad day I guess.

The scenario was this.... While I'm walking, already nearby the jeepney waiting area, I get in in the empty vehicle which stopped on the street. I sat at the passenger seat close at the driver seat, to easily hand out for my fare. Upon giving my fare, I moved to the edge portion of the seat so I can get off the vehicle later on. While travelling, the jeepney takes in passengers in every waiting area we passed by. A tall, old man wearing a red shirt and jeans cloth like shorts sits beside me at the edge of the passenger seat.

Nearby the market area, the vacant spaces became fully loaded. Everyone seems to be uncomfortable because of the tight space. I tend to lean back on my seat to find for comfort on the space, then all of a sudden I noticed the old man sitting beside me trying to reach for my bag. Of course, I freak out and asked what is he doing. I struggle to hold on my bag and checked if the man has managed to open it or if he has stolen something. Good thing was I had a huge bag(bigger than ordinary), with the zipper placed on top, hidden and cannot be opened quickly. The man failing in his attempt to steal my things, rushed getting off the vehicle without paying his fare. Uh Oh! He's really bad.

I just commute once in a while, but unfortunately I have experienced this kind of incident and somehow it really frightened me. I'm scared and my hands were shaking when I arrived at the office, I know part of it is because I just feel awful in general. Inspite what have happened I'm still thankful that I didn't lost anything.

I might just need to control my emotions and get over with this awful feeling.
