In response, Arif greeted them with a welcoming smile, creating a friendly atmosphere aboard the bus. Moments later, another passenger addressed him as “Abang” (a term of respect for elder brother) and expressed his gratitude “Thank you, Abang”.
Arif’s joy was clear, radiating happiness from his beaming smile. After all, receiving such kind gestures from people undoubtedly brings immense happiness.
