I was in a station,sitting down on a bench and waiting for the train to come. Presently,a lady holding a baby to her chest sat down next to me.

Since I'm quite fond of babies,I couldn't help but stare at the sweet-looking baby. The lady noticed this and smiled at me in a friendly manner.

"You have a very cute baby," I said.

She laughed and replied,"this isn't actually a baby,you know. It's a bag."

She turned the baby over,pulled it's clothes up and showed me a zipper on the belly. Now that she said it,I noticed that the baby's eyes appeared to be made of glass too.

"Wow," I said,somewhat taken aback. "It looks very realistic."

"Yes,I know." She replied with a smile. "It takes a lot of work to make one of these. It was time consuming too. But it doesn't bother me because I hate to throw anything away. I love recycling."

Just then the train pulled up. She stood up and got on the train. Yet,I couldn't bring myself to move. so I sat down there rigid and stared after the train until it disappeared into the distance.
