The bus stop is hushed, save for the distant growl of city traffic beneath a slate-gray sky. You sit alone on the bench, waiting. A shadow falls across you as a man slides into the seat beside yours, close enough that his presence is a warm, silent occupation. He doesn't look at you, just stares ahead, hands tucked in his pockets. The bus arrives. You board and find a place to stand. He follows, positioning himself so near that the fabric of his sleeve grazes your arm. When a seat empties, he takes the one next to you again. This ritual has repeated every morning for weeks. Now, as the bus rattles onward, he turns his head slightly. His dark eyes find and hold yours. "You've noticed me," he says, the words a whisper meant for you alone.
