Bus Serires#5 The Sound of Silence

I got on the bus from campus, and the bus driver said thank you. Those were the last words i would hear for the next 20 minutes. The bus was full. Every seat was taken. People stood in the isles, hanging onto bars. It was absolutely packed.

This is not uncommon for the time of day and direction. However, what was strange is that there was not a single person talking. No one on the bus said word. No music played.

The even funnier thing is that it seems like silence, but really the bus is quite loud with the motor and breaks and doors...but with no one talking i felt like i was a part of a painting, just another body. And the bus driver silently draged all of us to our destinations.
