An almost encounter.


To say I was shocked is an understatement. For a moment, as cliché as this may sound, my heart skipped a beat. I was looking down and when my gaze lifted and I saw that shirt, I was profoundly shocked. I recognised that shirt. My eyes suddenly refused to obey my commands and stayed down. Then, I realized you had noticed me and were about to move your vision towards me. I was at a loss for words! I wasn’t ready, wasn’t prepared, and certainly had no notion of how to handle the situation. I was petrified. Would you even recognise me? If you didn't, would it be appropriate for me to react to you in any way? Or should I pretend to just walk away..?

 

But it wasn’t you.
