ssshhh...

on the train back home from work...somewhere on my right, close to the end of the train there's a group of high-school kids, laughing, screaming...noisy, but they carry a good feeling of happiness and joy with them..

getting out, there's an error with my ticket card, so I go to the counter to sort it out...in front of me there's a middle aged man, speaking loudly and gesticulating widely - obviously quite angry. I get close to hear his argument and I hear him ramping against the group of kids in the train: "...unnaceptable","..disturbing the citizens.. "..and they were laughing loudly..".

For couple of seconds I feel sorry for the poor customer service man who has to listen to this, but then, raising my eyes, I see him fully composed and with an expression of pure outrage on his face. He interuptes the angry man " just a second, sir", picks up the phone, whispers a few words, and then returns smiley: "it's alright, sir, i've already allerted my colleagues from the next stop, they will be dealt with ".................

i walked home slowly, trying not to disturb anybody...Orwell, Huxley, sorry to tell you guys, but your fictional societies don't frighten me anymore...
