To work

Knowing how this remote control works for the most part, I started to head out towards to the train station for work. Knowing that my clothes was a mess I'd just ask my friends for his clothes. Boarding the train, I saw how most of the passengers was to themselves and mostly quiet as the train itself made up most of the sound. Walking through the aisle, I was looking for someone who was just minding her business and in her own world. And there she was, sitting in a seat by the window all to herself. She held a book in her hand as she crossed her leg and wore a plain white blouse and pants. I wasn't in the mood for another fuck but I had another idea up my sleeve. I pressed unlock at her and made my way over.

Sitting across from her, the woman looked up and made an attempt to leave but I simply said, "Don't go and don't make a scene,"

The woman paused for a moment before turning back to her seat. "Why can't I leave?" she said. With fear and anger in her eyes, she tried to search me and make sense of what is going on.

"You just want to talk to me," I said.

"I do?" the woman said before saying with more assurance, "I do. What do you want to talk about?"

I took a good look at her one more time before I said, "Tell me about what you value most."

The woman spoke, "Well, my name is Michelle and what I value most is feminism,"

Shit, this is going to be harder than I thought, I thought as I continue listening to her monologue.

"I'm not some sort of person who hates men but I just want to see women empowered. I attend every feminist seminar and I'm head of my campus' feminist club. Also I'm not much of a 'girly girl' and not that big on makeup. And I'm not sex crazy."

"Good," I said. Taking a slight breath, I said, "Keep that thought."

Michelle nodded.

"Imagine the opposite,"

Michelle looked up and slowly nodded but quickly turned into a quick nod.

"And have that thought replace your thoughts on feminism,"

Michelle just stared at me with disbelief in her eyes, "How did you do that?"

"Do what?" I could that Michelle wanted to leave or at least bring someone's attention but couldn't do both.

"You literally destroyed my whole worldview as if it was nothing." She picked up her phone and held it up to her, maybe inspecting herself. "God, I need to apply some makeup,"

"Just calm down, go where you need to go, and remember that this was your idea," I said. I pressed the lock button on her and watched as the train slowed down. The train came to a halt, and I made my way out.
