Nice people make my day

wwcitizenOn the way to the bus, I remembered that my wallet was in my other jacket, so I turned around, unlocked my door (for the second time), and changed coats. By the time I got down to the street, the two back-to-back buses that run at that time (8:00 AM) we already at my stop and pulling away - about a block away. I crossed the street quickly and thought, "Oh, he won't stop for me to get on, there's no way - plus, isn't it illegal? Wouldn't they get in 'trouble' for doing that?"
Nonetheless, I turned the opposite direction and ran and ran up the street in the hopes that the driver would see me and stop. The traffic light was red up ahead, so I figured I was in luck. The second bus was stopped, and since it was a double bus, I had to run a little further than I expected toward the front.
"Ugh!" I thought as I scrunched my face a little. The driver didn't see me round the corner of his bus.
The driver started pulling off toward the newly green light.
I kept running, but half-heartedly. I felt a little defeated until the brake lights came on and the bus doors opened.
"Oh, wow! Great!" I thought loudly.
Boarding the bus, I thanked the driver profusely and took my seat, which was a double seat that no one shared with me the entire trip into the city this morning. Nice people make my day.
