- Run for train with bag thumping into gut with every step.
- Get caught in closing door, catching cheek and ear on bag strap.
- Walk calmly to vacant seat with pride left at ‘death trap’ door.
- Catch eyes with beautiful girl.
- Watch her as she glances away then back at you several times.
- Feel romantic chemistry.
- Imagine conversation that you may have.
- Draft said conversation 6 times before landing on the perfect topic.
- Realise that the only reason she is showing interest is because you are boring holes into the back of her skull with your relentless stare.
- Look quickly away.
- Watch her reflection in the seat window.
- Make eye contact in reflection.
- Feel that you have suitably convinced her that you are a stalker who cuts out the eyes from your yearbook and scatters them over the mass grave in your backyard.
- Leave train ashamed.
