I was in Kuala Lumpur and had got lost walking around suburbia when a thunderstorm decided to hit. I took shelter in a taxi rank and thought I would give up on the walk. There was already a young man waiting at the taxi rank when I ran in.
After 10 minutes of us waiting for a taxi he turned to me and asked me where I was going. I told him and he said me too, do you want to share?
Another 10 minutes went by before a taxi pulled into the rank. He turned to me and said ok and opened the door for me. We both got in the taxi, it was only a short ride. When we got to the end he paid. I offered him some money, but he turned it down.
We got out and went our own ways. If he hadn’t had shared his taxi with me, I could have been in the rain for another 20 minutes waiting for another taxi to come along.
