Why Aren't You Surprised?
The lift is quiet and it stops again on the first floor and someone enters. I move aside and she stands next to me.
I have a friend who is Deaf and he used to tell me whenever he is at places where he knew people would approach him and maybe he doesn't want to make conversation, and as you know we as human beings sometimes don't get that someone is tired and we would continue making some small talks.
So, this friend of mine always has earphones plugged into his ears, and people would always think he is listening to some music and this always works more especially if he is somewhere with strangers.
If it was me, I would put it be it when am with friends or strangers, and I would completely ignore them, but I do wear them a few times. I would really love to wear them most of the time and put on some music and bob my head to the vibration while I sing along with the lyrics.
