I thought I saw you at work today. I was ringing through customers, and from the entrance of my work, my eyes caught onto someone who looked so much like you. The same white shirt you used to always wear, the hair, the height, everything. If it wasn't for the shortish hair, I would've had an anxiety attack. Nonetheless, I felt the nerves pour in and felt myself repeating "it's not him, it's not him". I couldn't stop looking for the same guy in the crowd full of customers. I was in between scanning items and talking to guests, all while searching for him trying to pinpoint if it was you or not. It's like I was in this trance, and I wouldn't be able to relax until I knew it was you. But, within a blink of an eye, I couldn't find him anymore. Everywhere I looked, it's like he had just vanished. I knew however that he would have to walk by me in order to pay for whatever he was getting, so I just waited and kept an eye out.
Minutes passed, and nothing. I thought for sure I had missed him. What felt like a good 20 minutes later, I saw him and a girl leave to go towards the exit. Without any other thought, I left my cash and walked to go almost chase him. Not to do anything but get a good look at if it was you. I was now certain it wasn't. Then, as I was walking back to my area, I saw another guy in another white shirt, who looked even more like you. But, this time I didn't have to get nerved up about it, because his face was so far off from yours. Man, what's with all these average heigh, white shirt wearing brunette boys at my work today.
Anyway, after my little internal panic, I had to just sit in the bathroom and retrace my thoughts. Just thinking about how much I was almost convinced the first guy was you. I was almost sure of it. There were too many similarities. I couldn't focus on anything but trying to determine his full appearance. You simply don't get it, I felt my heart beat out of my chest, thinking about what would happen if it had actually been you. Why do you still have such a grasp on my heart.
