Into the valley I went.

Scared and terrified, I closed my eyes for a bit and looked around.
The bus is filled with passengers, all windows were closed.
An old man, with a basket of leafy vegetables, who is looking around and excitement of going home is all over his face.
Another old man, watching a video on the tablet and smiling.
The woman beside me is making phone calls.
The young man sitting beside me, sighing then looked at me. *he is kinda worried for me for I am sweating like crazy*
Outside, the rain is pouring hard. Hard that the bus can not run that normal speed, visibility is not okay. Lightning that flashed everywhere plus the thunder.
After more than an hour of travelling, there was no sign of rain. Like, have we been "isolated" for more than an hour?
Then, all windows are up and opened.
Then I felt better, and enjoyed the cold wind that touched my face.

@Lucky15 my first thought was also ordinary bus, no aircon. it happened to me, too. i've been waiting so long for a bus because it was raining and when one finally came, i jumped in even if it wasn't airconditioned just so i could get home.

This place in the photo is beautiful!
Oh so it was scary and no air on the bus.
I cannot stand that feeling.

Never wear any clothes that are going to make you sweat. Clothes that are dark or close to that makes you sweat and always have towel on your back.
