Theres this lady, right? She drives by me on her bicycle every day, and she smiles at me. At first I wasnt sure if it was me she was smiling at. I mean, who would smile at me? Im not a very smiley guy and I dont even know her.
But she just wouldnt stop. Every day, she would turn around that corner and keep riding up on her bicycle, smiling and smiling at me. As soon as she saw me she would smile at me, and she would keep smiling until she passed me.
And boy did she smile. She didnt just smile a little, hello smile. She smiled a big, wide, clown grinny smile.
I thought she might just be a smiling at people type person, but one day, there were some people walking ahead of me, and I figured she would have to smile at them first, but she didnt! She just looked straight ahead, totally not caring about them. I thought she wouldnt smile at me, because she had so actively not acknowledged those other guys, but right as she was passing me, Wrench! Her head comes around and she freaking smiles at me, and only me!
So eventually I felt compelled to smile back. Just this weak little smile of acknowledgment.
Apparently this was enough to get her talking! Everyday after I began smiling at her, as she passed me, she would say "morning!" she even did this in front of my friend when we were walking together. That destroyed my theory that she wouldnt acknowledge a person who was in a group of people.
One time I even looked backward as she passed me, and she looked back at me! That means that I didnt even exit her mind right after her daily acknowledgment.
Then it got worse! She would wave at me! What more can you do to acknowledge a person? A smiling, waving, talking, creepy bicycle lady was showing specific interest in me. What was I to do?
Well, what I did was.... I smiled, waved, and talked back! An eye for an eye, right?
Well, after a few weeks of that, all of a sudden she just stopped acknowledging me all together! Why?! I would smile at her and she would not smile back!
One time though, I just stared at her.... really really hard, and she couldnt help but lagh, so I knew that she still knew who I was.
But still.... what had I done wrong? Why was she giving me the cold shoulder?
Then, all of a sudden, for no reason whatsoever, she just began to smile at me again. No waving, no talking, just right back at the beginning.
Needless to say she is trying to mess with me. What other explanation could there be? I cant think of one. Shes driving me up the wall! Im so freaked out! AAAAA!
