I live between 3rd circle and shmeisani circle ( it is important for later). While waiting at the bus stop of sprots city for bus 55 which is for first circle, one came and went and they said thats faulty or something and the next is at 9. This was at 8.20 ish almost. Anyways a woman from argentina was also waiting and I asked her are you also waiting and she said yes and she asked what the guy manager said and told her. I was gonna ask her if shes waiting for it cause this is my first time taking the bus after 7 i usually take it either 7 sharp or before so wanted to ask the people who are waiting if it comes after 8 thats why anyways i told her and she said shes gonna take a taxi and if i want to come and i said i don't have cash ill just wait till 9 and she she asked me where im going i told her 3rd circle cause literally i live like a 10 min walking distance from there. Now before i continue, if i take the bus i go down at shmeisani circle cause its easier to walk home from there, but if i get dropped at 3rd circle it will be same distance and time cause i live in the middle but harder cause its a طلوع. Anyways we talk and she tells me she doesnt want me to pay she is already going to pass there and she'll drop me off and no worries which i thought was so cute of her. The bus route is sports circle, shmesani but from the مجمع النقابات street and then when they reach haya cultural center they go right to the street light and from there to wadi saqra street light to 3rd circle 2nd circle 1st circle. I ask her while waiting for the taxi how do you find jordan etc and she tells me stuff and one of them is how taxis are hard cause she always gets robbed or they charge her more i say ill tell him where youre heading and make sure the meter is on and she says ok. Now since the bus route is already through shmeisani i didnt think shell mind going the same route and no need to take something either me or her dont know and the bus route is clear anyways and ill get dropped off at haya cultural center amd she'll continue from shmesiani/abdalli circle to 3rd then 2nd and then 1st like she wants. And imo isnt it shorter that way? Cause youll just go straight there with no turns. We get on the taxi i tell him and we go once we reach the turn to shmeisani and the taxi turns she says no no keep ahead, people who use bus 99 know shell reach the street lights of wadi saqra shmeisani/ the one near 5th circle if you continue ahead and dont take the turn i tell her but this is the bus way and she says no no this is faster i talk with her and tell her to trust me etc. Then we reach haya cultural centre and he goes to the circle and then she screams this is wrong what are you doing why didnt you listen to me i told you this is wrong and literally screams i told her im soryy but i thought you said 1st circle this is much faster and both me and you will get dropped of and then she screams at me again and tells me this is what is wrong with you people you only do what you want i tell her listen i will continue with you to first circle and show you this is right and im not tricking you and ill send him the money via click i dont want you to pay and she screams more and says this is not abt the money this is abt what i want. Anyways in literally 3 mins using the way i chose we reach 1st i tell her see im really meaning no harm to you she tells me off and i tell her dont pay im paying and she throws thr 2 jds and goes. The meter was 2 jds which is good not expensive i sometimes go there from sport circle and it really is like that. Anyways i felt like crying but the taxi driver says dont worry about it etc and we drive home i tell him still im paying i cliq him the money and told him put her money into charity and he says he doesn't want it so he will do it cause literally both me and him are shocked and literally dont want her خطيه. Anyways if im truly wrong tell me and i really wish i could see her again and tell her sorry and swear i didnt mean harm and not all Jordanians are like that. And this is my crazy story for today.
