A Walk Through the Afternoon Rush

What I Saw on My Way Home from School

On my way home from school yesterday, I observed the familiar bustle of lunch-hour slowly winding down. Office workers, having had their quick meals at nearby cafés, stalls, or restaurants, were making their way back—some on foot in lively groups, others stuck in the usual traffic jam in their cars.

What caught my attention most was a group of young office ladies stepping out of a sidewalk café. They looked as if they had just walked off a fashion runway—stylishly dressed, faces impeccably made up, and laughter filling the air. A few of them paused at a roadside stall to buy freshly cut local fruits like papaya and pineapple, which they carried away in plastic bags as they chatted on.

As I approached a busy shopping complex, I noticed another crowd: housewives with children in tow, their arms full of shopping bags, waiting for taxis to take them home after a morning of retail therapy.

Not far from them, a cluster of schoolchildren had surrounded the Magnolia ice-cream vendor. Business was booming under the hot afternoon sun. The children looked delighted as they enjoyed their colorful treats, each licking up the sweetness of their favorite flavor.

Then I walked past a durian stall, where the king of fruits was stacked in tall piles. Eager buyers were selecting their fruits and trying to negotiate prices, though the vendor seemed quite uninterested in entertaining their offers. Nearby, a man squatting on the sidewalk was peddling traditional medicine, drawing a small crowd of curious onlookers with his loud claims and strange-looking bottles.

Eventually, I turned into a quieter street, the noise and rush gradually fading behind me. As I reached the peaceful road leading to my house, I felt a sense of relief—it was good to be home again.
