What do I call you? + THAT MYSTERY GIRL
Wednesday, January 4, 2012 | 9:03 PM | 0 candies
Just how should I call you? Don't you guys ever had this moment where you suddenly meet someone out on the streets or at the shopping mall and that person happened to be an old close friend whom you just happen lost contact with? She or he could even be a friend from the same old clique. Isn't there times where you used to call each other by nicknames and all?
So each time if I see an old friend anyway, I always contemplate, "Should I call them out by their nickname or their name?", because when you think about it, you guys are not close anymore. What if she or he feels awkward when you call them by their nickname but at the same time won't she or he feel awkward if you didn't call them by their nickname as you always used in school in the past? So I just stick to 'hey' since it is too much to think about in that short moment when your eyes make contact with one another.
Speaking of meeting old friends, I remembered the time when this girl aka the mystery girl came up to me while I was walking home, claiming that we used to be classmates.
Girl: Hey~ Long time no see!
Me: *thinking: WHAT THE FUCK?*
At that point of time, I was staring at her intensely, no little spark of memory, no name, no face, not even the voice, well basically nothing comes to my mind as I stared at her. To clear things up thinking that she got the wrong person....
Me: Ohh.. heyy.. erm.. I don't remember you..? 
Girl: You don't remember? It is me _____. (she spoke too fast and it was in malay, yup she was speaking to me in malay the whole time and you guys should know that my level of conversation with this language is like NOOB level despite me being a malay, I didn't get to catch it at all, not wanting to make her repeat I just reply with,"oh")
Girl:  *starts talking about how we were once in mother tongue class together and that she didn't expect to see me*
Me: *thinking: seriously who the fuck is she?*
Me being me, decided that I should just go along with her despite not even remembering her or the possibility of her mistaking me for another person. I was like perhaps I might just remember later if I thinking about it.
How did I survive the conversation?So I just talk about things on how I am doing at that time and asking her questions(MANY QUESTIONS) to make her talk instead. After that we parted ways and I prayed that I don't see her again because OBVIOUSLY I FEEL BAD RIGHT?? Just going along with her like that. -_-
BUT I DID.
This time it was in the bus, I was on my way home and she appeared in front of me like how Pokemon's creep up on you at the tall grasses. Thus, it was another awkward moment for me. Still not remembering her, didn't get to catch her name. She was talking to me animatedly and my face was like this throughout the bus journey.
Maybe I didn't remember her since I don't really enjoy my Primary School life much. You know, when you don't like it you don't remember it? Selective memory.. hmm.
And I never saw her again. Maybe she was... a ghost.. *shudders*
