A Mysterious Odour

People’s reaction to smell varies. However, when you smell a strong odour, people seem to regard it with a similar dislike. Here is a story about the odour.

After long hours of working, my girlfriend and I walked to the bus stop, tired. A few minutes later, a bus pulled up. We got on the bus and sat down. It was quite late so the bus was rather empty. When I finally adjusted myself to a comfy position to relax, an unpleasant odour filled the air. I smelled so hard that I figured that it must be the odour from someone’s feet. I whispered to my girlfriend: “someone must have taken off their shoes. It smells so bad. Did you smell that?” A soft whisper came from my side: “It’s me.”
