Strangeness

I had the weirdest thing happen this morning.

As usual, I couldn’t sleep, so I was watching a movie. Around 2:30 in the morning, there’s a knock on my door. You read that correctly – 2:30 A.M. My first thought was that I had the movie up too loud and my neighbors were complaining. My second thought … well, never mind.

You can bet I checked the peephole. It was a lady I had never seen before. She looked un-dangerous, so I opened the door. Hey, why not, right? She looked a little concerned as she asked me if I knew where so-and-so lived. I said, “No, I’m sorry. I’ve never heard of him.” She then went on to say her daughter was gone and she thought maybe her daughter was with him.

Wow. What a heartbreaking story, all in the space of about 2 minutes.

I apologized again and wished her good luck.

I wonder what happened?
