A Chance Meeting

It's been a long time since I've seen Jeff and I remember him as always good for a laugh. He's walking towards me in the street and I greet him with a "Hello, Jeff!"

He looks at me curiously. He doesn't know who I am. He doesn't speak.

"It's me. Robert. Remember? From school?"

Gradually, I see the realisation cross his face. The emotions that show? None of them speak of being pleased to see me.

He stares at me and then says, "I remember."

And just like that, he walks on and I hear him muttering, "Twat."

How rude!
