Have you ever bumped into someone in your uni or school all the time? Have you ever have the urge to talk to him or her, but you don't? Have you ever felt weird that you keep bumping into him or her, especially when that person is not in the same course as you? You may not see him or her every day but does it ever bother you that you guys never talk to each other at all, let alone say 'hi'?
Well, I used to have the same situation since 2 years ago. There was this guy from my faculty whose blog I always read. I keep seeing him every day in the faculty and sometimes somewhere else. It was pretty weird that we didn't even said 'hi'. Then, he added me on Facebook last year and that's when we started talking to each other. After we became friends (and bumped into each other less like he predicted). The thing is, of all times we bumped into each other.....
We never say hi.
I was thinking about the same thing as well. Why I've never said hi to him. I'm always the one who always says hi to people. Well, I did try to say him to him once but failed before I even uttered that word. I still remember that day at the ATM machine. I wanted to say hi to but he left before I get the chance to. Then, he blogged about the whole incident on we kept bumping into each other but not saying hi to each other.
Right now, I feel it's like deja vu all over again. Only this time it involves different person and different faculty. Let's call this guy ZK. I met ZK during Perkad where I met Asak, Helmi and Jaguar. I never thought about talking to him as I was busy talking to Jaguar and Anwar. A few days later, I bumped into him at DC. He was about to leave that place while I just arrived. I didn't talk to him. A few weeks later, I saw him when I was having dinner with Suki at Pak Li. Augustine was there as well with his friend. I ordered Hokkien kuey teow and it haven't arrived so I talked to Augustine. And then, I saw two guys entering Pak Li. One of them was ZK. Needless to say, I kinda stared at ZK just to be sure that it's him. It was him (and he noticed that I was staring at him). Luckily, my food arrived at the nick of time. So, I finished my food and left (after paying for it).
Few days later, I was walking past Teratai 5 and saw ZK getting ready go to his class. We stared at each other at that time. It's as if he noticed it too. It's as if we're trying to send each other a telepathic message that went:
Hey, have I seen you before?
After that, I made a promise to myself that if I ever bumped into him for the third time, I have to say hi to him. Guess what? I've been bumping into him for like 8 time and still nothing comes up from my mouth that means hi or anything related to that. Some of my friends who happen to be his friends told me just to say hi to ZK and not wait for him to say hi to me. We are not from the same faculty and he's in his final semester of his course. This means, either say hi to him or wish that I did.
