The Plant on the Bus

Maya wants to take a small green plant to her brother. He lives on the other side of London, and he is waiting at the station near his flat. The sky is grey, and the plant is too heavy for a long walk in the rain. Maya does not call a taxi. She already has a card for the bus and the Underground, and she wants to learn this way herself.

She walks to the bus stop at the end of her street. A few people stand under the shelter. Maya holds the plant with both hands and reads the sign. The bus she needs stops here. When it comes, the doors open and she steps on. She taps her card, and the machine accepts it. There is one free seat by the window, so she sits and rests the plant on her knees.
