Dirty Dirty Subway

She went to sit down but before her butt could touch the seat she realized the abundance of crumbs that kindly covered the last seat available. She let out a loud sigh that caught the attention of the strangers around her. The gentleman sitting in the seat directly next to the crumb filled one smiled almost simulataneously laughing at her exaggeration. He pulled out a pocket tissue and proceeded to wipe the seat for her. Making sure to put in an adequate amount of elbow grease to prove it was clean."Thank you so much sir," she said as she gently laid her hand on his shoulder for a split second. She sat down, ipod in hand, and looked at her mother next to her and nodded her head in approval. The gentleman watched over his shoulder as the girl played a card game on her ipod. And his attention was on her just waiting for her to reciprocate. All for a handy kleenex and a kind gesture.
