Two people come out of a building and into a story.

Yesterday, I was bored at home and decided to go to Capellos, a small club in Cape Town. When I got there, I still felt bored and I didn't know if I should stay or go home. I met someone who didn't have company also anticipating the same thing. She was in a dilemma though. She said " Hi" and I responded saying "Hi". At first it was a bit awkward, but there was something that drew us closer to talk. As I was walking away deciding that it would be better to be home watching t.v. Then she stopped me and asked which way I was going, she needed a lift because it was too windy outside.

We ended up talking for four hours and got to know each other better. We found out we were from the same town, Durban and we both went to what was formerly known as Natal Technikon, but we had never met there. I didn't even feel that it was the early hours of the morning. I gave her a lift to her place and we decided to meet for lunch the following day.

We met for lunch at Sinn's Restaurant, it seemed like we had a similar taste in food. It was surprising that we come from different backgrounds, but we related to each other on our life experiences. We became good friends and even thought of starting our own company together. Two people come out of a building and into a story.

  1. It's strange how we have a connection with someone we don't know and out of that come something meaningful.
