3 fishballs , a stick & some chili sauce

"Race to Witch Mountain" was disappointing but the cinema was pack.
2 of my frens slept during the show.
when the show ended, we let the crowd go 1st. partly bcoz my frens needed to "sober up"

3 foreign cleaners immediately started cleaning up the place whn d show ended.
they look like Ghostbusters wf the vacuum cleaner on their backs.
when the crowd finally cleared the area, we decided to get our butts off the seat.

one of the cleaner found a plastic bag on the floor.
he shouted out to his partner.
they shouted bk at each other in a language that i dint understand but im sure he was very happy.
maybe he has found some valuables in that bag?

the cleaner placed the plastic bag nicely on a arm rest near him.
just went i was crossing him.
i managed to get a glimpse of what was inside it.

it was a stick of fishballs with some chili sauce.
left over food that might be the 2 workers' supper.

My heart sank.
he was so happy over the stick of fishballs he has just found
he countnt stop grinning.

it reminded me of the trip to Indonesia
when arrived in Bandung from Jakarta
a crowd of Indonesia rushed up the train offering to help carry our luggage
when no one wanted their services, they started looking for leftover food on the seats

one of them found a piece of cake in a box.
he swallowed it immediately.
unkempted, they look like they were starving.
i couldnt stand the sight.

im glad, im lucky.
yet sad that im lucky.

life is unfair for us & for many more...
