So there are kind people in this world after all

Alright, so I may have been a bit too cynical of the world. I shall have to review my opinion after the incident that happened just minutes before.

So I just left class at 9 something close to 10 to the library. Reached the library and set to chucking my stuff at the bag shelf and entered the library at a very sedate and half asleep state. Then rummaged in my pocket sleepily and to my absolute horror, I realise that....oh shit, I left my cell in class.

Now, I wouldn't know about how other people in other countries might do if they find an abandoned cell phone, but generally, humans are pretty greedy; they'd just take and run off with it. So I bloody got my ass up and flew back to the lecture hall.

Saw a bunch of my coursemates whom I don't even know the names of still there in the class. So I frantically asked them if they saw or noticed. Nope, naturally no one would, but they ended up trying to help by looking around and calling and messaging my phone for me, despite me being a total headless chicken moaning my fate right there and then. After a long time of calling and no one picking up, finally whoever who took my phone called back.

Oh boy, I don't know how relieved and grateful I am right at this moment. It feels so damn...I don't know, the world ain't so bleak after all. There's people helping me at difficult points in my life, and now there are honest people too. Seriously, what more can you ask? I just hope that whoever had helped me today, whether by holding on to my phone and returning it to me, or helping me retrieve it, would receive the same treatment if they were ever to encounter any difficulties in their lives too.

Signing off,
a very grateful and relieved Rei-chan
