I am pushing through this brilliant prose, awaiting the bus, when the school breaks for lunch and an old woman with a cane sits beside me on the bench and mutters:
“Here come the monsters…”
I look up to see dozens of teenagers noisily talking about the events of the morning. There’s still 10 minutes until my bus arrives. I move inside the station and continue reading away from the complaints of the old woman.

A wonderfully vivid and engaging piece! The scene unfolds so naturally, capturing both the humour and the quiet tension of the moment. Your storytelling pulls the reader right into that bus stop, making the ordinary feel extraordinary. Beautifully written!
