Bane of my existence

So...yesterday after work I decide to accompany a friend/colleague to dinner at the 'mamak' restaurant. Her parents were just coming back from Singapore and she had to go fetch them from the bus terminal. So we chatted and she ate and we chatted somemore. Then while I was blabbering about something, someone comes up to the counter to get ciggies (we were seated next to the payment counter). So I just glance to the side and who should I see....none other than the person who has made my life miserable for the past 5 months. Aaarghh!!! I stop short in the middle of a sentence (this rarely happens btw) and my friend asks "why, why, what happen?" my palms start sweating, and my heart starts racing and I began shaking....of a sudden fear? don't know. And I try pathetically to hide my face hoping against all hopes that he should not approach our table. Why? I never expected to see him around. After all the nasty exchanges between us, I didn't know how to react anymore. So I just sat there in my seat, quiet as a mouse, looking so obviously restless. He was practically next to me, with his back facing me. Did he see me? I'm a 100 percent sure he did (it's not paranoia!!!) and it was taking such a darn long time for him to get his ciggies and get out! Then after what seemed like an eternity...he finally gets the hell out of the restaurant and I am left with this yucky feeling. It's funny cos just 2 nites prior to yesterday, I had a dream about him for two nites in a row, and...here comes the best part, I was whooping his ass in my dream, verbally and physically. well we now know what happens when i come face-to-face with a mad man!!! he really is a mad man. But i'll leave that story for another time. Btw I had the "puss-in-boots" face yesterday, kinda vulnerable and fragile! =)
