Heart Attack, Table For One
So the other day I’m at work and someone who looks EXACTLY like a crazy, if not the craziest, ex of mine walks in. Now years of improv experience has made me pretty good at dealing with the unexpected and not showing a reaction so I doubt anyone noticed my momentary panic which is probably for the best.
In that moment of panic I had absolutely no idea how to handle the situation, it was just too unexpected - she wasn’t even supposed to be in this time zone. My second thought was “How did she get a job?“.
Then I realized it wasn’t her and relaxed. The incident however stuck with me. Something didn’t feel right. So a bout of insomnia and discovery of a wireless network in my apartment later gave me the idea to check up on the ex. For once her insatiable need for online attention came in handy as I found a message forum mislabeled as a blog within minutes. Quickly jumping to the last page I discovered she was in fact in the city. Whether she is just visiting or back to stay I may have to face this scenario in reality sooner than I thought.
