Every day I saw her sitting there. Day in, day out at the exact same time, she sat there at the train station in the exact same place, waiting for the subway taking her downtown. I didn't know her name or where and why she went there every time, but I knew something about her fascinated me. May it be the book she always was carrying along, even though she didn't read it during waiting time, or just the look on her face, composed but almost desperate. Or maybe it was something about the aura she radiated, something unexplainable. She was beautiful, yet I never saw anyone trying to get with her. No wonder, something about her made her seem unreachable, like you would break her if you would talk to her. That was it, I guess. I never seen anyone so fragile, yet so strong at the same time.
And every day when I sat in my train, waiting for the other passengers to get on, I looked at her and wondered what made her smile. How she would look like when smiling. How her laugh sounds. What would make her stop in her tracks to admire the view? What was her life like? And how would it feel if those eyes wouldn't stare right through everyone and everything but into my soul, because I was sure that what would happen if she wanted to really look at me.
Actually, why did she not get on this train? And why was she always so early, not boarding this train if all the trains went the same direction? Or did she pick someone up every day? Was someone waiting for her in the next one? I didn't know and I never understood.
I watched her sit there, a book in her hands, day in, day out for one month, two months, five. I watched her sit there, a book in her hands, day in, day out for two years straight. Until she suddenly wasn't there anymore. And I wondered where she might have gone. Did she move? Did something happen? Was the reason, she always sat here, a book in her hands, gone? I couldn't stop wondering every day I passed the train station until I slowly forget about her. It wasn't my business.
Until I saw her again one year later.
