“I will see it one day,” Dana promised each time, but she never said when exactly she would go. Another passenger who often used Dana’s bus was a Biscuit Lady. She worked at the biscuit factory and often gave Dana a small bag of biscuits. Dana didn't like sweets and pastries very much but she could never resist those biscuits — they were so fresh and tasty. “How was your night?” Dana’s husband liked to ask her when she came home.
“Good music, good food and a great view of the city,” she cheerfully answered. “I wish I enjoyed my work as much as you enjoy yours,” her husband said, “ but I’m going to have just another boring day at the office.”
