We sat there on the bench staring into each others' eyes

I knew I had seen him before but I couldn't for the life of me remember when or where.
So I stared into his warm blue eyes, his wrinkled face showing a lifetime of memories.

He stared back at me and I could tell he was trying to remember me as well.

As we sat there for 10 minutes or more, neither of us needing to say a word, a woman sat down between us.

She had on a long coat, it looked like a rain coat but it seemed to be made of wool.
Her hat was round and sat on top of her hair, not really on her head at all. It had red berries and some little flowers on it. There was a black net, like a short veil, on the hat that could be pulled down.

I wondered where people shop to find these out of the ordinary clothes.

The woman jumped up just as the squeaky brakes of a bus made their announcement.

As we all got on the bus I remembered where I knew the gentleman from.
