The setting sun was falling softly. The light was penetrating the roof-covered platform. While waiting for the train, I wandered aimlessly around on the platform. The twilight light and silence seemed to slowly stretch the passage of time.
I looked up and saw a station attendant emerge from the station room. He stopped in the middle of the platform, staring intently at the end of the tracks. Perhaps a train was approaching. I hope that train is the one I am about to board.
Eventually, the train slowly entered the platform. The low rumbling of its steel mass echoed through the silence. But it was not the train I wanted to board. The train stopped for a short time and then drove away, melting into the twilight.
After that, there was nothing but silence again.
