How crazy is this...
I haven't talked to this couple I used to use with for probably over a year now. I stopped talking to them even before I got clean. They used to live a few blocks down, but they got evicted while I was in rehab.
So, right before Christmas at like 8 o'clock one night, my mom is like "I need to go to Walmart". It was completely random and she usually never goes out that late on a weeknight, but I said I would go with her. We go to a Walmart about 20 minutes from out house. While there, I see this couple. I don't know if they saw me, but I pretended to be into my phone and went in the opposite direction.
If that wasn't weird enough, today, my mom asks to borrow $200 til friday. She says they will take me to the currency exchange tomorrow, but I said I didn't think it was open so we should go now. So we go and who is in line in front of me, but this lady's daughter. Then, I look to the teller window, and SHE is there. This was like wayyyy closer quarters than a Walmart and there was nowhere to go, but I still looked down and pretended I didn't see them. I KNOW they saw me, but they didn't say anything.
I just don't understand this. It's not like I live in a small town either. I'm basically in Schaumburg. How on earth, after not seeing these people in over a year, do I see them TWICE in like two weeks at locations over 20 minutes from each other?
