Today I met an old friend at a party. I haven't seen her in at least 2 years, we used to work together earlier. We made some smalltalk and I asked her about her job. She is a very tough person, has a lot of selfconfidence but is a very hearty Person on the other hand. At that very moment tears sprang to her eyes, her voice became very emotional and she blinkend very fast to prevent the tears from falling. I was just standing there, listening attentively and showed my sympathy to her problem with the job. I am not a person who touches an other easily and also this time I didn't do it. Later I asked myself why I didn't do It, because a lot of Times a simple touch can start the tears flowing. Maybe it was my decency not to do it because I know she wouldn't be the type to cry openly at a party. Later I regret I didn't do it, because I would have liked to see those tears flowing down the cheeks, what a terrible person I am...
