Yesterday
evening, I went home from my office by on line motorcycle taxi. At first,
everything went well. I had to wait for about fifteen minutes, but that was
fine with me. The trip ran smoothly although there were some traffic jams at some
points.
However,
as I arrived home, the driver told me that his cell phone was dead so that he
could not check the fare that I had to pay. At that time, I felt annoyed. I
asked him what the solution would be. He was confused. I also didn't know what
to do. Then he asked me, “how much money should you pay as notified at your
cell phone?’. “I don’t know. I cannot find the notification.” I replied. Then I asked him angrily, “How much? I am in a
hurry”. "You can pay half of your fare", the driver said. Then I gave him 20 thousand Rupiahs. I
entered the house. The driver left.
I
felt bad about what happened. Why? Because actually, I knew the notified
fare. I was irritated because of his
carelessness. However, I should have forgiven him for the sake of good deed and
humanity. Maybe, just maybe, it was not his fault that his cell phone was dead.
