For
years I went to school by bus, so I met many "familiar" strangers. We
took the same bus but didn't know each other's names. I used to think it was
impossible for us to be true friends. How wrong I was! Smiles from the "nameless"
people have changed my thought.
The first time on the bus, I saw different
faces. As days went on, we hatted like old friends.
But I
felt it a pity that I was unable to set up the same friendship with a silent
girl in the front of the bus. Her old clothing suggested that she didn't have
much money, but she always took a cup of water for the driver. I guessed she
was a kind girl. But why did she sit in silence instead of talking with us? Why
did she never reply to our friendly greetings? Couldn't she smile?
Then,
one evening, I got the answer. I walked to the park nearby and found the girl
sitting alone under a tree, lonely and sad. I greeted her with the same warm
smile that had shown to her all these months, but this time her face turned
red, then a shy smile appeared. As soon as she began her first words, I
understood why she hadn't spoken to us before. Talking was hard for her.
I
heard her story. Her parents worked hard somewhere. She lived with her disabled
grandparents. She said, "I can't express myself very well. Most of the
time, I can't say what I want to say I have no friends but. You always smile at
me like an angel… so I also want to smile." That evening, we exchanged our names
and we said goodbye like old friends.
The
smile is the key to opening the door of heart; it can break the cold walls in
front of us.
