The Strange Coincidences Archive

A friend and I were sitting on a park bench at our
University. Then suddenly, this guy who struck me as rather mysterious appeared
from nowhere. He walked towards the main building that was about a hundred yards
away from us. When he was almost at the front door, I said to my friend, “Hey,
it’s that creepy guy.”

“Who?” my friend asked.

“Ben,” I said, and Ben looked at our direction as if he had heard someone
call him. Then he bowed and continued to walk. I looked behind us to check if
there was anyone there. I found none.“Ooooohhhh…so now you got this radar
thing in your head, huh? Okay, let’s see…one more time.”

He looked for a moment then bowed.

“Okay,” I said. “That’s creepy. Let’s try another one.”

He stopped, turned around and looked straight at our direction.

I never mentioned his name again.
