Literary justice served!

A couple of months ago, OP found themselves in the midst of an unusual train encounter. Standing at the station, the train pulled in—not a bustling platform or a packed train, but an incident unfolded.
A woman behind OP aggressively pushed through, determined to secure a seat even at the expense of those exiting. Despite the near-knockdown, she triumphantly claimed a seat, promptly pulling out a book she had only just begun.
Interestingly, OP had finished the exact same book a few weeks prior, and serendipitously, a massive twist awaited the reader three-quarters of the way in.
As OP disembarked, they couldn't resist a parting gift—a spoiler about the book's unexpected revelation. The joy of turning the tables on an overzealous fellow passenger added an unexpected and satisfying twist to this train journey tale.
In the world of train rides and bookworms, spoilers are a notorious pitfall. Commuters often tread a delicate balance, trying to enjoy their reads without accidentally stumbling upon plot twists.
However, in this instance, it was the aggressor who got an unforeseen literary surprise, serving as a humorous reminder of the unpredictable interactions that can unfold on public transportation.
Just take a look...
