My head on a Stranger's Shoulder

Tweet

I never sleep during my journeys, be it long or short. But this time it was an exception. I stay away from the main city hence I travel once in 15-20 days to get my stuff. I had a late night and hated to go shopping the next morning but I had to go as my groceries were exhausted. I caught the morning bus and got a window seat, the breeze coming from the window sang a sweet lullaby and I don't know when I dozed off. I didn't even know whether some one was occupying a seat next to me or not. Suddenly the bus jerked and I woke up. I dreamily opened my eyes and found my head resting on somebody's shoulder. I was stiff with embarrassment and lost my words. I have always hated people sleeping and falling all over others. OH God!!! How could this happen to me...was I dreaming...I must have apologized at least 20 times but the stranger just smiled and said it was ok. I lowered my eyes and just got down at the next stop which was 2 stops away from my destination and walked. Would you also react the same way as I did? Have you encountered a similar kind of situation ever?
