When you cry, you cry together

So I had had a long day and I was sitting outside on the ferry on my way home. It was a cloudy and overcast and I was pissy and feeling sorry for myself and I was tempted to bury my head in my hands and have a good weep.

That was when I noticed that sitting 2m away from me, there was a young guy imperceptibly crying, reading a text on his phone.

There was just two of us on this bench in the blasting wind, getting teary. It was like the ferry seating of doom.
