On the train to town, early morning, pissing it down so everyone smells like wet dog, pretty packed but you manage to get a seat on the end of a 6 seater section. There's space in the middle as well but you don't wanna cramp window person.

The train pulls in to the next stop, and fills up. You get asked to move up to make room for someone to take the third seat on the end of the row. Ordinarily you'd keep the end but becuase its so packed, you move down to save a fight.

They sit down.

You hear the heavy laboured breathing, then come the sniffles and the cough.

You shallow breathe.

Lastly, you smell the Eucalyptus breath from the person next to you and think.....

It's me tomorrow. I'm done for
