Pity beggar



There is this moment where I couldn't forget ever, it was a nice windy afternoon as I make my way walking to a lunch, a poor looking guy drew away my full attention. Okay, to be exact, is a guy with all torn clothes and pants, very messy unclear hair, some half healing wounds at his head, thick moustache, bared foot. 

I couldn't left my sight away from him. Thousands thought in my mind. Was him abandoned by his family? Or was he get lost? How long he been wandered here? Had he eaten anything? First thing I remembered was I saw him lied down on a bench in the park besides sunway college shuttle bus stop. Must have been a tough day with hot pouring sunlight. The place he laid down was not shady. The heat like a hot oven. 

His action attracted me. He woke up and sit. At first I didn't know what it was. Looked like a prey that get trapped. He cried out all his tear in silence. I never saw a man cry without tear before. He stopped crying, was just sitting there watching people passed by in a little black-and-white day. 

He was like frozen, sitting and waiting. He stared out of nowhere, I think he just didn't know what else to do. He didn't looked at me standing there besides the park. Despaired, losing hope, being isolated by this world.




Just like that. Sitting and waiting at 3 in the afternoon.
