Stranger by iaVember

He doesn't know her.

She doesn't know him.

Yet for that moment,
for that brief moment,
She felt like there was something familiar about him.

----------

It was an ordinary day.
Nothing felt special. Nothing seemed new.
She was there to do an errand.

With coffee and bread occupying her hands,
She entered an unfamiliar office and sat on an unfamiliar chair.

As she sat waiting, she felt an unfamiliar stare from across the room.

Subtly, she found herself looking at the corner in front of her.

There He was. Staring at her.

On regular circumstances, she would have already felt uncomfortable -
A stranger was staring at her.
But She didn't.
There was something in His stare -
Something familiar.
Something that made her Smile (from within).

"Here you go," the woman in blue said as she handed her the document she requested.
"Thank you," she said in reply.

As her business was done, She stood up and headed for the door.
And as she was about to close the door, She again caught sight of him.

Staring. That strangely familiar stare.

And without smiling back, She closed the door and left.
But deep inside her, She knew... Her heart was smiling for a reason she doesn't know yet why.
------------------
There could be a reason. There could be none.
That moment could mean something. That moment could mean nothing.

Something or Nothing, She is thankful for that brief moment when She felt happy.
