This just happened. On mobile sorry for the format. 

So, I finished my morning gym class and I was rushing to the tube coz a bit late for work. Someone in a car asked for me, and i heard and stopped. I was like hmm yes? How can I help. 

It’s an old-ish lady and she started to give me some background and She told me she’s a well-known artist and forgot her wallet or something and she doesn’t have any cash or cards and she lives 80 miles away. Ask if I can help. She mentioned she needs about 40 quid. 

I honestly thought it’s someone asking for direction and paused for a sec and I said sorry. I don’t have any cash. And then she said there’s an ATM few mins down to the road she can later bank transfer back to me and ask me to google her name. In my mind, I’m like I’m not going backwards for few mins and take out 40 quid cash and give it to you when I’m getting late for work. When I said I’m really sorry and she went to cry mode way too faster than I expected and I didn’t know what to do but saying sorry and then rushed to the tube. 

This was 7am. AITA?
