Is silence not quenching.

Today, while out walking about the neighbourhood blocks, I approached a couple arguing loudly on the sidewalk ahead. I tried to step around them, but as I did the woman grabbed a package of cigarettes from the man and threw it at me. I caught it, but when I started to ask to give them back, she told me to shut up, and to tell her boyfriend to shut up too, why don't I. But I didn't do that, and instead I turned and kept walking. So, that has been my day.
