Stranger

There wasn't much of instances where i made a complete fool of myself.

But these past few days, I wasn't being myself at the sight of a stranger.

The signs?

I knew it was him before he materialized. How am I supposed to take that?

He noticed how I was restraining myself from staring. How am I supposed to take that?

I knew he was staring without me looking straight back. How am I supposed to take that?

And a thousand other things I dare not say here. How am I supposed to take that?

The last time I behaved this way was 8 years ago, and I remember vividly what came next.


I don't flirt, yet I was doing exactly that. I'm not my bubbly self with strangers, yet I was doing exactly that. I don't call friends for advice, yet I was doing exactly that. I do not give my numbers to strangers, yet I was doing exactly that.

And when he did call, I went tongue tied and all I did was giggling. GIGGLING! It was utter nonsense. At the moment, I am still deciding whether or not to call him and abandon all my self containment and just talk.

Who are you, stranger and what are you doing to me?
