When the Bus Comes Late

Has your bus ever been very late?

You stand at the bus stop and wait.

The street is cold and quiet.

You look left and right, but no bus comes.

Two minutes pass, then five, then ten.

You check your watch again and again.

A woman next to you drinks hot coffee.

A boy listens to music on his phone.

You talk to a man about the weather.

He says the bus is always late on Mondays.

Then you see two lights in the dark.

The bus arrives at last!

Everyone smiles and steps inside fast.

Late buses teach you to be patient.
