untitled no. 6

Girl sees boy at bus stop, as she walks by.
Girl stops, asks boy how much longer the bus would be.
Boy says a few minutes.
Girl nods, waits.


They make small talk.
They board bus.
Boy asks girl where she's going.
Girl says she doesn't know.
Boy asks why?


Girl responds, I was just getting on with you. I wanted to talk to you.
Boy is surprised and confused. 
Boy asks, why did you ask when the bus was coming then?
Girl tells him it was to see how long she'd have to wait. If she should stick around or keep walking. 
Boy asks what if the bus was another 20 minutes away?


Girl blinks. 
I'd have kept walking.
