Courteous Caucasian on a southbound bus

- The Ear -

COURTEOUS CAUCASIAN. An old woman bus passenger of about 70 had to stand on the bus alley because there was not a single vacant seat and no one had offered her a seat. A caucasian man seated a few seats at the back of the driver must have noticed the old woman from the rear mirror of the bus. He stood up and offered his seat which, according to our informer, was several seats behind the front seat. The old woman thanked the man saying it was ok she’d try to manage. But the caucasian was insistent. So she accepted the offer.

GUILTY FEELING: The informer who is about 50 said he felt guilty he didn’t offer his seat to the old woman. “Pero, Sir, di man sad ko makabarug og dugay gud. Operahanan ko og danlak (hernia),” he said. “Nauwaw bitaw ko nga wa ko motindog alang sa tiguwang.”
