how i met that one stranger.

Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

honestly, i’m not one to ideate or initialise a random conversation with a stranger cause’ i’m really one shy person. so reserved that, the only thing I go on about, is just envisaging my day just goes well.

this is not cause’ i’m some uninteresting person. i am interesting. if anyone ever gets to know me closely, i’m one of the most interesting people you’ll ever come across. i’d be open and, share my interests, my views and, sense of discernment on certain topics.

but really, half the time, i’m just always in my head. thinking about really random things and, observing whatever goes on around me.

but albeit, i did happen to encounter a random stranger. at the library (I love being in the library. I’m such a library person. Plus, it’s my place of therapy whenever I need to just be at peace with whatever’s really not going too well with me).

so, it was a random day for me, where I had gone to the library to code, and complete an ongoing app I was building, that’s when I saw this girl seated across from me.

she was in glasses, beautiful, cute, fair in complexion, her eyes were pretty hazel; hazel much that, it made her stand out from the rest of the students at the library. quite 5’5 or 5’6, she was a bit petite, and was on the usual black and white that, students at my school who studied Law as a course would always pulled up to school with.

her presence across the desk where I was, did reflect how much of a jovial she might be and, how well she would engage in conversations with a stranger. albeit, I was a bit scared, thinking I might probably get into an altercation with a stranger cause’ apparently, I always assume everyone who I’ve come across are angry or mad by default due to past experience.

so, I just sat there on my chair, staring at my laptop, hesitating so much if I should walk up to her and, start a conversation with her; I hesitated for half an hour until finally, I thought to myself, “what could possibly go wrong if I do walk to her and, start a conversation?”, that the worst that could happen was that I might just snubbed and, you know of course, I can be good afterwards.

so eventually, I dropped my long thinking process and, stood up, walked up to her, and immediately, she stared at him, damn I could tell the ground wanted to swallow me up but, I relaxed and, gazed back and, alas, I spoke up and, she responded back calmly. she wasn’t mad or angry at default, she was cool and, really in anticipation of what next I could come up with.

and immediately, things I wouldn’t have imagined to keep the conversation in flow started popping up my head and, I kept on going with her until, two hours passed. it was insanely one best moment of my life, I actually thought aloud to myself.

what the conversation was really about was, how often she does come to the library, where she resided at(if at the school campus or outside the campus) and, she said “outside the campus”. apparently, I stayed outside the campus too. and, the rest of the conversations were really, what course she was studying, what sector she was handling with and, random movie she was keeping up with since, I caught watching movies on her system.

i hadn’t told her how beautiful she was cause’, she was incredibly prettyy that, you could stay all day and, watch just smile and, speak. it was indeed one of a moment where, what I had positively instilled in me was “Just go start the conversation. Don’t worry about the outcome until, you go for it. And, it shouldn’t wear you down, when things don’t outright go well”.

i came home that day, and was just smiling, and speaking to myself that, I really do hope I meet her again. and, of course, I did and, up till now, we did still talk. much up like close friends.
