Vigilance or Paranoia?

The other day, I was in a bus from Alabang going to Ayala, when a man boarded in with a medium-sized black luggage. He placed it on the driver’s side and proceeded inside the bus to take a seat.

Since I’m sitting directly in front of the luggage and the man doesn’t look like a traveller himself (judgmental much?!?!), I was very uncomfortable and can’t keep my eyes off the luggage. I was holding on tightly to my bag thinking that it holds all the information that will identify my body if things like in the news and movies happen. Ang morbid ko no? Do you think I should stop watching suspense-thriller films?

Anyhoot, we arrived in Magallanes with me still absorbed in my morbid thoughts. When passengers started to alight, talagang I made sure to screen everybody that was passing by. I was ready to jump out of the bus if I see the man leaves his bag.

I’m just thankful when we reached Ayala and when I got off the bus, I prayed that I was just having crazy thoughts for the sake of the other passengers. My trip that time has never been that long!

When I told the Hubby about that, he laughed at me for being crazy but he also commended me for being vigilant. Eh di ba nga, “Demons are sprawling everywhere” says Barbra Streisand. ^_^

  1. Nakakatakot nmn yun. Ok lng yun, it pays to be vigilant. Ganyan minsan tlaga ang result kakanood ng mga suspense/ thriller movies. Ako nmn, ever since I watched Final Destination, as in yung first ever nila, paranoid nako plagi :)
