Asked help for parking fee
Hi People.
I am feeling sad to post this. Human being in a way!!
I went to my course & left the wallet at home ( mummy's brain, my bad ) this morning. It could be alright I dont need to spend anything.I thought.
Half of the day went well. I got unexpected call fr my boy's school to tell me that he got hurt by jamming his fingers & unsettle, no signs of injury just bruise. I let them know that I were out of town, coulnd be back straight away. They said OK & gave him an other 10 munites.
I couldnt focus anymore after that at class but decided leaving anyway. At the carpark I rang them. They said he was Ok & got back to class happily. Whoop..it was good. I decided keep going , but planned stopping at Farmers on the way instead. Bugger, I had no wallet. I arranged to borrow fm my husband who works in town & would meet him at Farmers. Ok that' was sorted.
I ve been through all the trouble to find car park. None left & so many cars go round and round. I moved to the building next to the Hospice & spotted one spot. Yeh. Parked the car. OH NO. Couldnt purchase the ticket , no money. I didnt realise it now. I were exhausted.
What would I do? couldnt leave the car but just go home. He was waiting & needed to get back to work. Is anyone kind enough to give away 50c-1$. It took me awhile to be brave for asking. The only chance that I still could made. You never know until you try. What would you think?
A old couple approached me, walking forward to the ticket machine. I smiled but really hesitated. The man asked "Were you OK" I replied I were fine,thank you but very shied I asked quietly. Did you have any coins? The lady kept walking & answered "Yes I had, but for me sorry". she walked away !!!.
Oh men. I felt so embarrassed, pity....not much differrent as if I were a begger. Did I just do something really bad? which I wouldnt have should. Why would she / he just bare one second, stopped & talked to me? The way she did just so cold, looklike it was none of her business, stay away from them. I felt that way anyways.
We all human being, making mistake...I did. This case was all my fault because forget wallet. Week ago I felt greatful because I found my wallet from the supermarket. Today, I felt opposite...
Not sure what would you do if you were in my position or you were in the lady position? I just wish we should be sensitive & nice to people as much as we could. Sometimes I left carpack, if my ticket still had valid time, I passed to next driver. They said oh, thank you...I feel please for that.
