It was a busy day today on the metro, rush hour, everyone was going somewhere and the metro was fully packed. There were no room for you to sit, you were carrying your daughter on a baby carrier onto your stomach.
Kyle who was standing next to you were carrying his daughter on a baby carrier onto his stomach, there were no room for him to sit either. All the seats were taken so you were forced to stand until you got off, or until someone got off before your stop of course.
Kyle’s now ex-wife had cheated on him and he demanded full custody of his daughter, which he eventually got obviously. It was the same situation with you, your ex-husband cheated on you and you had gotten full custody of your daughter.
His daughter and your daughter made eye contact and they both smiled at each other, you and Kyle were completely unaware because you were both looking at your phones. Your daughter cooed and reached out her arm to grab Kyle’s daughter arm, his daughter giggled and began to wiggle in the baby carrier and reached her little arm out to your daughter.
Your daughter then accidentally hit Kyle’s arm and his daughter accidentally hit your arm which both you noticed, you looked down at his daughter and then up at him. And Kyle did the same, he put his phone down and gently grabbed his daughter’s arm and stopped her from reaching out to your daughter.
“I’m sorry about that, i wasn’t paying attention.” Kyle said apologetically, gently bouncing his daughter.
