i didnt know what the hell was going on...
i was out with my dad today when we were sitting down on a bench, eating a brownie, and this random lady (50-ish and seemed fairly normal) walked up to us:
LADY: have you seen the dead?
DAD: well hell yea
LADY: really? who
DAD: my uncle!
LADY: are you sure hes dead?
DAD: pshhhh yea, i went to his funeral 20 years ago. im pretty sure hes dead
LADY: yea, im sorry, its hard to talk about sometimes i bet
DAD: yea it is for me
LADY: where did you see him?
DAD: in my garage last year. My wife said that she saw him too but she didnt want to tell me cause she said she thought that i would think that she is nuts or just making it up.
LADY: well there are a lot of look a likes out there, i think they are there just for us to know that everything is okay.
DAD: you know what, could be. but there arent a lot of, or enough, look exactly alikes.
LADY: do you think you could bring back my parents?
DAD: aww no i cant do that
LADY: well sir id like to shake your hand
(they shake hands)
DAD: awww hun your hands are cold as ice
LADY: yes sir, cold hands, warm heart
then she walked away...i asked my dad if he knew her and he said that he had never seen her before in his life. i asked him if he was being serious in what he was telling her and he said that he just made it all up off the top of his head. He was telling that story to her like it was the truth, and for a moment i believed him. afterwards he acted like nothing happened. usually he just ignores people like that, but maybe he was doing her a favor in that he wanted her to feel less alone in that crazyness. hopefully it worked.
