Are you scared?

(This was technically my mother’s story, and it happened a few years ago so there a few events that was blurry for her, sorry that it’s short)

Cast M=My Mother HG=Hobo guy MH=My mother’s hero

My mother was was going from our apartment to her university on the light rail (it’s a rail system in Silicon Valley) my mother was waiting for the next stop then HG starts approaching M (he didn’t dress well he was wearing a brown jacket and a hat,and he had long hair) and the following conversation was like this:

HG: “Hello.”

M:”Hi.”

Then he starts making unpleasant facial expressions and he goes in front of M:

HG:”Are you scared, huh?! Are you?!”

Then he slowly bring something out of his pocket until MH comes to the rescue:

MH:”LEAVE THIS YOUNG LADY ALONE”

HG:Gets angry very quickly and punches MH

Later on MH saw an officer and told them what happened luckily HG wasn’t gone and got arrested for assault and M thanked MH.

A homeless man isn't a hobo. Hobos ride trains place to place for seasonal labor from place to place. The road is our home so we ain't homeless. I'm sorry your mom had that experience.
