ومؤخرًا، ذكرتني بذلك سيدة مرت بالطاولة التي كنت أجلس عليها وكانت تحملق فيّ وهي تمر. وقد كانت في السبعينيات من عمرها وكانت تبدو على وجهها علامات الطيبة. ولم أفكر في أمرها حتى رأيتها بطرف عيني وهي تمشي من الاتجاه المقابل وهي تحملق في. فقلت لها "كيف حالك؟"
I was reminded of that recently, by a woman who walked past the table I was sitting at, just staring at me as she walked past. She was in her 70s, looked like she had a kind face. I thought nothing of it until I saw from the corner of my eye she was walking from the opposite direction, also just staring at me. And so I said, "How do you do?"
