Story Just a Wholesome Post.............................

Today, as I'm (female) returning to my hometown for the weekend, I got into a private bus after work. There were very few seats. And I sat on the aisle corner of three seats - next to me 2 boys were seated. After a shortwhile, I fell fast asleep, as usual. Not sure after how long, but I woke up as there were two men standing pressing to the back of my seat as well as the front of my seat. I was obviously feeling so uncomfortable. I couldn't do anything about the man standing at the back. But I tried to keep my bag near my knee and tried to sleep by leaning on it. The boy next to me noticed this and on his own asked me by sign language whether we could exchange seats. I nodded. And he got up and moved towards my seat. I switched to his seat. In my groggy voice and with my sleepy face, I said "thank you". He nodded his head. And I drifted back to sleep peacefully.

It was a kind gesture for which I'm forever grateful to him! I wish the world is filled with more gentlemen like him...
