Pastorale

Last year, once I was getting on a bus when a girl behind shouted at me, "Hey, his hands are grabbling in your pocket!". I turned back my head immediately only to see a man hesitated shuffling left and right to avoid my eyesight. I didn't really know what happened, so I just stood on the stair of the bus looking at them (The bus was so busy on that day that I had to push hard to get on it).
The girl behind the man spoke again with her hands pointing at the man, "He is trying to steal from you!". Her voice seemed a little anxious, but loud! In fact I was also very very nervous when I finally knew it was a theft! Such things had never happened to me before. I stunned for a while then I came to myself, I checked my pockets, everything was still in its position. Soon the bus door closed, I covered my pockets when I suddenly realised that I had forgotten to thank that girl! As the bus started to move, I nodded to the girl and smiled as big as I could so that she might see me.
How brave the girl is! She is a student like many other people, and she is a female! If I were in the girl's situation, maybe I dare not act so directly...
She took the heroic action, but I dare not. I am ashamed of myself.
