After standing at the bus station for just a few minutes that feel like an eternity, watching traffic drive by, Lin Wangshu looked and in the distance and she could see the white and blue bus making it's way to her stop.

She had not sat down because shr was impatient and wanted the bus to arrive earlier so she kept pacing up and down the place while looking at the time on her spotless white wrist watch from time to time.

As the bus slowly rolled to a stop in front of her, she shuffled her pink leather mini bag and rushed forward to board with excitement to finally be on her way.

The design scheme was the same in almost every bus: rows and rows of brown worn out seats, a thin black aisle down the middle of the bus, hundreds of hazy windows, and the big, lemon-yellow exterior.

As she boarded with her bus pass in hand and a ready smile for the driver, greeting him with a cheery good morning, she was somewhat surprised to find he was so preoccupied with his own thoughts.

He barely glances her way.

Undeterred she tried again and said, "It sure is nice out today".

"Excuse me old man! Can't you even greet passengers?" Lin Wangshu asked the driver in an irritated manner.

She then ambled down the aisle to find a seat.

Preoccupied with their own thoughts and each going to their own destination.

As she looked around for a vacant seat, she noticed the variety of passengers on the bus.

She saw a tired mother with two small children both climbing all over her and the small worn out seat they were occupying.

She was trying to get the children to sit down without any luck.

Across from her sat an older lady who Lin Wangshu saw almost every morning, clutching a little grocery cart with several plastic bags tied to the handle.

They made eye contact and Rylee Athena smiled.

A couple seated over was a teenage girl with blue hair and facial piercings who has not once looked up from the smart phone she has in her hand.

She was lost in the tiny earbuds attached to the sides of her head.

The bus was crowded with morning commuters each carrying their own loads while some with nosy children who stared at the boarding passengers and where they went to sit.

The view along the way was breathtaking, throngs of people were gathered around places as crowds of people walked around the pavements with some trying to cross the busy roads.

Lin Wangshu was staring soundlessly out of the window.

Other passengers had a word for each other as they conversed along the way making the inside of the bus tumultuous.

The bus stopped in the city centre and Lin Wangshu stepped out of the bus in the central business district in the city.

Lin Wangshu then took out her phone and started staring at her reflection in the camera, then she continued walking and arrived at her complex apartment.

She had been from university lessons and had finished the learning.

She opened the door and walked in.

She then headed directly to the bathroom and washed her hands and then went to her bedroom.

She then plugged her phone in the charger and placed her forefinger on the switch wanting to turn it on.

The voltage of the electricity was very high at that time and Lin Wangshu was unaware.

When she placed her wet forefinger on the switch, she got struck by the electric power.

The power was so strong that it made her hair stand up straight and due to the large voltage, she died on the spot.

....

A turquoise-blue stream wound it's merry way through the forest.

Babbling and burbling, it sprung over the limestone rocks in it's way.

Pebbles whisked about in the under wash like pieces of glitter.

Streams were the liquid soul of the forest, and that one was glowing.

Chords of soft light speared down from above, bathing it's surface in gold.
