I have thought about it again. I’m pretty sure it was qirou yang who walked past me. I think she purposefully pretended she didn’t see me. She had her hair different too. This type of encounter wasn’t rare. What was she doing at grange? Buying coffee? I got a feeling they were all stalking me. Probably showed up just because I bought a matcha latte from coffee exchange, a little store that was not the big chain like Tim Hortons. I realized she was going to say hello but my face changed. She immediately pretended she was still angry at me. Was friendship after universities this complicated?
