How to express Nihilism without explicitly stating it?

In my novel, the character is sitting in a café sipping coffee, and she is watching a busy street of people rushing towards London underground after the office hours. I want to express the thoughts in my characters mind about Nihilism and/or Existentialism without explicitly stating 'Life is meaningless' or something like that.

Can you help me with the imagination of what she will start thinking? I will take it forward from there.
