People just didn't do that anymore. Everyone worried about their own11, rarely stopping to think about others, especially teenage strangers. "Thank you, but no, I can't." "12it-go!" The man pushed me13the train. I bought a round-trip ticket, and he refused the change I14 to give him back. I did not know what to say-a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood15.
