Strangers Once

Once total strangers. Next, acquaintances with the usual hi and bye or an ocassional weak smile to acknowledge one's presence. Yet today, this pair of acquaintances brought the relationship a step further. It's more than just acquaintances but still not intimate enough to be considered friends.

I spotted him in the queue at the bus berth. Tried to shun away or pretended i didn't see him but he was a mere metre away from me. How not to be noticed? Gave him a weak smile which he returned courteously.

I failed at my attempt in sitting next to him in the bus. It was extremely uneasy. Thank God the trip was a mere 10 minutes ride. Managed to escape that awkwardness that was building up as the minute passed.

He was busy fumbling with his mobile phone and i was hoping against all odds he wouldn't ask for my number. Alas, he did. Somehow, opposites turn into reality. I was at a loss. Quite apprehensive but i still succumbed to it.

Keyed those 8 digits into his mobile phone and i hastily alighted at the next stop. Just hope that i will not bump into him anytime soon. But such chance encounters do happen quite often. Moreover, he's living in the same estate. Argh!

Perhaps i should develop thoughts contrary to what i hope for. Who knows, it may help evade unnecessary akward encounters.
