“The world is full of coincidences.”
-Scoop (Movie 2006)-
According to the internet, a coincidence is: is a remarkable concurrence of events or circumstances that have no apparent causal connection with each other. That is, they are events that have no connection but occur, something like when your mom found you in the street with bad company, although you should be studying, well what a coincidence! But, although my mother did find me several times with my classmates in the street or playing in the cyber, when I should be studying.
But what I am going to talk now about an extremely incredible experience of coincidence has nothing to do with it. When I was a little boy, I always thought that in my life a quite incredible coincidence was going to happen that was going to blow my mind, I expected it to be something of another level. And without expecting it, it happened better than I thought it would.
When I was in my last year of compulsory education, a new girl came to my classroom, who I had never seen before but I found attractive, although I knew she was not going to talk to a nerdy and shy boy like me. But one day when we had to get together to do a physics work, she invited me to her house to finish the work and besides I had internet and I wanted to download games on my phone, so I went after class, of course warning my mother so there would not be a show haha.
But when I got to her house I had one of the craziest coincidences I've had in my whole life, her mom welcomed me and even though she hadn't seen me before and I hadn't seen her, she knew my name and my parents' names. I immediately got scared and thought it was some cult or criminals who harvest the organs of children or teenagers. But the lady noticed my fear and told me that it was okay, that she had known me for a long time, and I asked her how long.
The lady very kindly answered me that when I was small, a baby just my father went to present me to the civil registry to give me a birth certificate. And right there at that time that lady had also taken my classmate to present her, and as at the time of presenting a baby the representative of the baby must have a witness for legal processes. My father was the witness of my classmate's presentation and her mother was the witness of my presentation to the civil registry.
But not everything ends there, since we were both born the same year, in 1998 what a coincidence! But not everything is there, since we were both born in the month of January, only on different days, but almost at the same time what a coincidence! After knowing all that we became very good friends, but then we took different directions, she emigrated from the country and I got married and formed a family, sometimes I see the mother in the center of the city and I greet her. But I have never heard from her again, I hope that someday I meet her and we see that we both have children and that another incredible coincidence happens and that both names of our children are the same or were born in the same month haha, but it is already thinking fictionally.
Thank you very much for reading, see you in a next story :D
