The Companion
It's way past midnight and a girl is standing outside her office building waiting for her cab to pick her up. She is on a call. She is frustrated about something and looks angry.
"I just took a deep breath...! Ok fine, I'm doing it again."
She takes a deeper breath.
"I am okay, thanks."
"You know he is always like that, he cuts in between when I'm saying something and starts blabbering without even listening to my issue. I'm getting sick of him, seriously!!"
Her cab arrives. She takes the backseat, where a man is already sitting.
"Yes I'm in the cab now."
"It's a share cab. Yes there's a man with me.. ok listen, I'll talk to you when I reach home. Bye."
The man takes a look at her and then looks away out his window. There's a pop song playing in the cab which begins to irritate her.
"Excuse me, do you mind if I ask that driver to turn off the music?", She asks the man.
"No no, please.", He replies.
"Can you please turn it off?... Thank you!"
Both of them stare outside their windows. As minutes pass by, he...
