Subway Love #3

I got on the 4 train uptown tonight after work. There's a couple already on, probably mid-20's. She's got brown hair cut into a cute bob, clipped out of her face with a crystal barrett. He's a bit scruffy, blondish stubble, ski cap, boyish face. As I get on the train, she's sitting, he stands in front of her, and as I pass them, he caresses her face. She looks up and smiles shyly at me, and then at him. She has a cluster of bags in her lap, and I can see their fingers entwined among the bag handles. When they get to 59th Street, he slips the bag handles into his hand and lifts them from her lap, carrying them before her as they leave the train. Peace babies.
