.you were so happy.

I hate running into old co-workers
at the job I had before the one I have now
because,
I sorta
kinda
really hated everyone there
(sans a few of the best people I've ever met).

And today: it happened.

I ran into a not-so-close co-worker.
Who hated me then
(for no reason - I swear!)
and
apparently,
still does.

I could tell because of her fake smile.
Which sort of looked like this:

Sorry to whoever this really is.

I hate small talk.
I hate talking about things I don't want to.
I hate silences.
Ew.

I got off two stops early
walked up the steps
turned around
and waited for the next train.

(and if you read this XX - you know it's true)
