She looked across the street to find him staring at her. He had been doing so for the last 10 minutes. She started to get tense. He was walking towards her… She wanted to scream but her system failed to emote. She started to run and he ran behind her. He was fast and she slow. Finally he caught up with her and tried to stop her. Her system came alive: she screamed. People around looked at them and encircled them. He gave her the book she had forgotten in the restaurant she had dined last night. She tried to recall. He was the man who had served her yesterday. He was humiliated, did not wait for the token of gratitude. He did not expect it. Walked away with the resolution never to help anybody else.

v all live in dis mire of suspicion enguling us... it often holds us back b4 doin a good deed or perhaps makin a new friend.......... one thing i wanna achieve in life -is to learn to trust ppl .. not innocently n blindly but trustin despite knowin the danger dat i face when i do........... trust doesn have to mean blind faith.. u can kno, look at all the ill happenings around n still trust..i think dat a person who can do dat, has reached a "state of innocence"
so is the state of innocence good or bad??
of course it is a gd thin...
but then, wont he be the one to suffer when everybody misuses his innocence???
A good one! Depicts a real life situation!
Regarding innocence,the line between innocence & foolishness is too thin!And becomes thinner as you grow in life!
Innocence is good only when one is a child!
mr/ms. anonymous, i so completely disagree.... if u lose ur innocence, u've lost ur tru self!
n svati, d state of innocence dat im talkin bout is not bout not knowin... its bout being aware dat ppl can hurt u but still livin by who u really r...so even if some1 hurts u, it wil hurt but ul handle it becos u weren ignorant, u chose to look beyond.. u chose ur state of innocence
its complicated...wonder if ul wil understan :(
