After going to the gym tonight, I went to the bank to get some cash.
While getting out of the car, I saw a woman standing beside a car just opposite me. It looked like she was waiting for people. Seeing as there was a group of people coming out of a restaurant, I thought she was waiting for them.
After getting my cash, I walked back to my car. As I was walking, the woman stopped me and asked to borrow my phone. She said some other stuff in Mandarin, but seeing as my mind was not expecting a random conversation in Mandarin, I didn't pick up everything she said. I think it was something about being locked out of her car.
Seeing as my phone was in the car and not on me, I just said I didn't have a phone with me.
Was I wrong to do that?
What if she actually needed help? Then the poor women would have to wait for the next person to come by and hope that he/she would help. And who knows how long that would be.
But, a part of me was slightly suspicious. Why didn't she ask that group of people coming out of the restaurant? Why didn't she ask me when I first got out of my car, before I went into the bank?
Was I wrong to do that? I was just being careful. But I feel bad if she really did need help.
Maybe...(or not maybe)...I just have trust issues.
