I was going to work this morning with my iPod on, as usual. Because I am working in an office and that we have a dressing code, I always try to look nice. While I’m waiting at a subway station, a strange man came up to me and started taking to me, but I didn’t understand him because of my iPod. I caught cute, and baby, and I decided to move away because I didn’t feel like dealing with him or having to be in the same train then him the whole ride. When I turned away, he started yelling at me, calling me a bitch. I walked further. There were a lot of people waiting for the subway, and they all looked up. He didn’t follow me, and I wish I will never see him again.
