It felt so good to get this off my chest, but on the other hand it was also embarrassing. I couldn't really explain what happened, and I saw on his face that the guy also did not follow it and even found it a bit funny, something I did not blame him for.

Suddenly I realised that while I was telling the story, we started walking down his path. He got me to walk down his path without me noticing, and I just followed him. I could not believe what was happening and slowly I started to panic.

I looked around in stress and saw all the clothing and shoe stores closing for the night, dogs barking to each other while their owners had a conversation and something familiar, the big river.
