I got up the bus and tapped my wallet on the EZ-link card reader to hear the familiar beep before moving towards the back of the bus, just 2 steps behind another guy.

As he walked past the exit of the bus, he deftly put his wallet over the card reader, *beep*, before continuing towards the back.

I sat down on the seat facing him, and glared at him. He didn’t seem to notice.

Should I report him?

This guy obviously cheated on his bus fare. I should let the bus driver know.

But heck it’s just a small amount - no need to be a busybody.

But dang it’s not fair that I’m paying the full amount and he’s not.

But it’s not like I’m getting hurt because of that.

But wait it’s because of people like him that’s why the prices keep increasing.

But he looks like a poor dude who needs to save every penny.

But he probably has done it many times.

But Singapore has become too expensive for many people.

But wait isn’t he holding a Puma bag?

But he still looks like a poor student.

But I shouldn’t be like the typical Singaporean who does nothing in the face of wrong.

But it’s the transport companies that are more evil with the ever-increasing prices.

But hell it’ll be fun just to report him and see what happens.

So that was when I decided to report him. I decided to do it just when the bus was reaching my stop, since it would be more convenient.

Except that got off before me. The stop right before mine.

Ah well.

At least I got his photo.
