I let the train go by.
Not sure why, I was on my way in when I turned on my heels and loitered outside the closing doors. The station had no transfers and I knew in a moment, if only briefly, I would be completely alone underground. It was Saturday morning at 10AM and my hangover and I thought that sounded really nice.
The train pulled out, the people shuffled by and I swore the station sighed a breath of relief. I sat down on the platform, legs dangling over the tracks and closed my eyes. Total silence is fleeting in the city, when you run into it it is best to savor.
