I was reading someone's journal and it reminded me of something similar I have once experienced.

It was about 4 years ago. I was 10 years old, the last summer before I came to Canada.
I had classes at the east side of shanghai. And my parents weren't home, so I took a bus.
When I'm on a bus, I have this habit of staring outside the window for. a really long time. I just stare and my mind wonders far away. Then the bus stopped and more people squished onto the bus. And then I noticed this high school girl, wearing school uniform, staring at me. You have to know, in China, people don't bother you, and you don't bother people. Anyone can be dangerous. Back then, as a ten year old, I got scared easily. I thought to myself maybe she was just staring at someone near me. And to convince myself, I turned around to check. That girl was staring right at me. I tried to calm myself, I thought I should be safe on the bus with so many people.
When the bus stopped at my station, I practically ran off the bus. I didn't dare look back, I thought i could still feel her eyes on me. Or maybe it was just my imagination...scaring myself?
