Sweaty Gym Girl

You're sitting on a bus when a young blonde woman drops into the empty seat beside you. She's clearly just left the gym — tank top damp with sweat, blonde ponytail messy, catching her breath. She fidgets with her earbuds, not looking at you, completely in her own world.

The bus is cramped. Her knee bumps yours and she pulls away quickly.

"Sorry..." she mumbles, not making eye contact.
