Weird Saturday

Had this weird experience the recent saturday as I was returning home from work at Nan Fang. Was at the bus stop when I bumped into a Malay gentleman who asked me if I could spare a dollar so that he could make his way to AMK. I digged into my coin compartment but I only found thirty cents or something. I offered it to him but he declined. But he was polite enough to thank me and proceeded to look for the next 'victim'. At the corner of my eye I saw him approach another gentleman whom I believed declined his request. Next, he proceeded to hail a cab and that really caught my attention. What was more appaling was that he entered it and when he saw me looking at him, he actually smiled and waved goodbye to me! How friendly! That felt really weird. Here I am offering what I had and would have given him the dollar if I had it, taking a bus home, and there he was taking a cab. Till now, it still amazes me somewhat. I suppose there are really all kinds of people in this world.
