It was a nice feeling

We always come across thousands of people in life and sometimes just a glimpse of someone stays in our memory forever.

Sometimes in life we think it is just us, who notice people and that we are not noticed. Every day I walked to school from the town and there was this man in his mid 30s. I saw him and particularly noticed him because he has long hair. Used to walk by his shop in the mornings and the evenings every day like many other 1000s of students did.

It has almost been 10 years now and just imagine how many students must have walked by his shop. A few weeks earlier I went to his shop to buy something.
He looked at me and smiled, I smiled back assuming that he was doing it for the sake of courtesy. Then he said he knew me. For once I though he mistook me for someone else but then he explained that he saw me walking by his shop everyday when i was a little girl.

I just didn’t know what to say. I just smiled back and said yes that was me. But it felt nice.
