Round here...
One
I went in to a bodega to buy my girl some flowers. I asked the guy behind the counter where he was from. He told me he was from Cambodia. I said that I would like to visit there some day. He offered me a smoke. I don't smoke, but accepted and thanked him.
Two
As I was on my way to work I had to leave a large metropolis of about 11 million people. The streets at 6:15 in the morning weren't that crowded and very few people were scurrying to get to wherever they were planning to go. I watched this one kid cross the street in front of a large cathedral. He blessed himself out of respect and kept on trucking it to his employment.
Three
Walking up the street I became aware of a kid following me in a burka of sorts. His face was covered and it was black. He had green khakis on and carried nothing. Should I tell someone, should I be suspicious?? Should I hold him to the ground and call the cops?? Should I let him greet the rising sun, like I do every day??
