Those days

A new day rolled around. I was excited at the same time I wanted to somehow avoid doing it. When I was about to go out I sat down next to the door and took a deep breath. “ I can do this. Don’t chicken out now, Jane.” I sat there for a while my mind was having a heated debate on whether I should go or not. After a while I got up and as I was making my way to open the door to go out the bell rang. I stopped and then opened the door slowly. I saw a woman in her mid-50s. She looked very familiar. I stayed there looking at her processing who she was. She was doing the same as if she was confirming that I was actually the one she was looking for.
