    Why did you get home so late, Enya? I was worried sick.<br />I had everything timed perfectly. I sat in the coffee shop waiting for bus 35.<br />It is supposed to leave at 4.45 sharp. I take it every day at that time because it arrives at the Waterloo Station just in time for me to catch bus 15.<br />And you lost track of time, didn't you?<br />No can, not this time. I was at the bus stop on time and I was picking up my bag and getting to my feet at 4.35.<br />I was two feet from the bus when it suddenly left.<br />Ten minutes early?<br />Yes. So I had to wait 30 minutes for the next bus. By then there were no more buses leaving from Waterloo.<br />How did you get here then?<br />I walked. Can you imagine me, a young woman walking in the dark for an hour by alone?<br />And in this neighborhood? Next time, please call me. That was so dangerous.<br />I know. I'm lucky to be alive. What's wrong with the public transportation in this city?<br />Don't they care about people who can't afford cars?<br />We should write a letter to our local officials.<br />And the newspaper.<br />Why did you get home so late, Enya?
