And suddenly, he stood up.
The whole table went quiet.
I froze.
For a moment, I wondered whether Robert had said something about me at work.
“Linda?” he asked.
“Yes?”
He looked surprised.
“You’re Robert’s wife?”
Before I could answer, he stepped around the table. The continuation read in the comments ‼️👇👇👇
Then he hugged me. The people at the table stared. So did two of my coworkers.
Mr. Harrison pulled back and looked at me.
“I cannot believe it’s you.”
I didn’t understand.
“I’m sorry… have we met?”
His smile disappeared.
“You really don’t remember me?”
I shook my head.
He slowly sat down.
Then he said:
“About eighteen years ago, I came into this restaurant alone.”
Something in his face looked familiar.
But I still couldn’t place him.
