On my way back from work today, I was approached by two men. They were among hundreds of other commuters who walk this street daily. I never have a moment to pay any attention to any specific people. There was nothing striking about these two. We all go about our own business. The Occasionally there are friendly commuters I bump into. They wish you a happy day and greet you with a smile. Today was different. I did not see any friendly commuters.
These men were no ordinary commuters. Just as I was about to pass them, they blocked my path. I kindly requested them to excuse me. Instead of being a friendly commuter, they decide to pull out a knife. The instance I saw the knife I rolled my eyes knowing what was about to happen. I was getting mugged. They requested me to hand over any cash or valuables in my possession. With two knives pointing towards me I had no other option. They left with everything I had in possession which included my wallet, cellphone, iTouch and a necklace I have had since I was able to walk and talk.
It was a long walk home. I still cannot not believe what has happened in the past few hours. Was I suppose to fight back? Was I suppose to yell for help? Life is simply too expensive to do any of them. At the end, I was just lucky to leave without a scratch.
This world is just awesome!
