PART 04
Such it was: the standard introduction she used whenever we met. In essence I did anticipate in pleasant apprehension...the chance meetings we had. She did introduce herself on one of such occasions and I was obliged to reciprocate the gesture.
''Gosh....I thought I knew you....''
At first I cringed....I thought I may have made a terrible mistake: I was about to be insulted by one whom in essence was a familiar stranger. But what began with a positive feeling, changed a bit later to a sublime yet horrific one...eventually became a feeling with the similitude of a deflated balloon.
In any case, she only gave a knowing smile and moved on. Subsequent meetings were also in public places and purely as incidental as the previous ones. And she gives no more than a knowing smile backed up with a hello and small talk.
