As I stare at my watch, I hear the sound of a subway coming to a halt.
Screeching, as though crying to be set free.

I step up onto the car. The crowd is unusually big.

No room left to sit. I see some elderly people getting on. The smell is horrific. They smell as if they were rotting from the outside, and doing nothing to hide it.

Damn. I hate the old. Cant they just die off already?

They step off and out of the car. Reasons being unknown to myself.

Thank goodness.

The subway creeps to life, as though on it’s last leg of a race. I hear a sigh of relief as the smell leaves the car.

This is when the train begins to accelerates quickly, the conductor curses, and a wave of panic sweeps the train cars.

whats happening?
