i met him again

if i was not wrong.
i met him again.
can u guess who?
u must be thinking he is someone of my age.
u're wrong.

i met him for e 1st time was aft artsnight in our school.
i volunteered 2 become waitrez on dat day.
aft e artsnight, we went home.
we waited for 965 at e usual bus stop.
"anyody wants to go to e mrt station? hello... anybody?"
i was curious who was e one asking.
when i turned around, i saw 2 men.
i saw them, bt they didnt see me. in fact, they cant c everybody.
1 woman approached them, ask if they nid any help.
one of e man asked e woman if she was goin 2 e mrt station, his fren, wanted to go there.
dat woman lead him 2 e mrt station.
left him alone. he didnt ask for any more help.
i approached him.
"which bus are u taking?" i asked
"can u held me a taxi?"
of corz i said yes.
i found a taxi 4 him, aft saying thank you, he board e taxi n lead home.

i saw him again. in fact, i heard him before i saw him.
e same as e 1st time i met him.
e familiar voice.
i was on 965, i board e bus before him.
"good morning. going to yishun mrt station? thank you"
it was very crowded this morning.
no more seats left.
one girl, she gave out her seat to him
i was standing behind him.
when it reached khatib, i can feel that he was a bit worried.
worried dat he might miss e stops.
when it was 2 stops from his destination, he asked e ppl sitting around him
"is it yishun yet?" my fren who was sitting in fron of him, couldnt hear it properly.
i could hear it clearly, cuz i was observing him from e moment he sat on dat seat.
"2 more stops" i said.
"i'll inform u when it reached" i added
"thank u so much" he replied
when it reached, i told him.
he said thank u once again n alight e bus.

i admired his courage.
living in e darkness is sth very horrible.
yet he tried nt to b very reliant on ppl around him.
he will only ask for direction, bt he didnt ask ppl 2 lead him there.
he is very brave.
to b able 2 overcome e fear of walking alone nt knowing wad will happen next.
although he couldnt c, bt he didnt give his life up.
he atill live his life to e fullest.
i can sense it.

i had learnt sth from him, had u?
i hope he will b blessed with happinezz..
may God bless him always..
