Mark was waiting at the bus stop, scrolling through his phone, when an older man nearby dropped a stack of papers. The wind immediately scattered them across the pavement. Without hesitation, Mark bent down to help, catching a few pages before they blew away. A young woman joined in, grabbing a paper that had drifted toward the street. Together, they managed to gather everything and hand it back to the man, who smiled gratefully and thanked them. As they returned to their spots, the bus pulled up, and everyone got on. Mark found a seat by the window and noticed the older man waving as he got off at the next stop. It was a small, ordinary moment, but one that left Mark feeling connected to the strangers around him.
