DiiGMaa

Title: Everyone knows everyone

Scene I

Venu: my quiet little office at work

Time: sometime yesterday just a bit before end of work

PPL: Me & HE

*Ring Ring*

*Ring Ring*

Me: Hello

HE: Hello, may I speak to DiiGMaa please.

Me: This is she.

HE: Oh I didn’t realize it’s a direct line.

Me: Well it’s not but I picked up the line randomly, how may I help you ?

HE: My name is So Al-So and I’m calling from Company Y.

Me: I’m sorry I didn’t catch your name.

HE: So Al-So.

Me: Wilni3im (thinking to myself I’ve come across that name)

Me: and what was the Company, my apologies your voice is distant ? (genuinely I couldn’t hear)

HE: Y

Me: aaahh yes I think I’ve approached you guys before for a project I had. (I had but it was with another person)

HE: Yeah most likely, but this is the first time I call you and just wanted to let you know about our services and I shall be sending you an email with more details.

Me: That’s great, thank you.

HE: Hope we can help you further with what you require and let me know if you are interested in any of the services.

Me: Will do, Thank you.

HE: Good Bye.

Me: Bye.

Scene II

• DiiGMaa thinking to herself:

Jeez I know that name.. how ? I’m sure I know that name !!

Scene III

• Facebooking later that day:

Went to a friends profile to leave a comment on his wall.. and lo and behold there he was.. So Al-So !! he had commented on my friends wall too.. I think to myself “ahaa there you go DiiGMaa !! I knew I had read/heard that name before”

Scene IV

• Is it or isn’t it HE ?

I figure, what are the odds that I just spoke to this person and now he’s commenting on my friends profile the same time I wanted to comment.. maybe it’s not him.. maybe same name.. so I click on his profile (HE if you’re reading this I swear I wasn’t trying to dig up on your info.. I was just reassuring myself that you’re the same HE).. and HE had listed the same Company Y so I am certain it’s him.

I smile and continue facebooking.

Scene V:

• I know you know who I know we know I don’t know !

After replying msges and commenting on walls and poking ppl to annoyance.. I decide it’s past bedtime and start closing the tabs and shutting down.. when I got to HE’s page, just before I closed the tab, my eye caught a glimpse of friends we have in common.. and there were quite a few.. and some were high-school friends, some were friends I met through friends and some were bloggers.. yep it turns out HE is also a blogger..

And that my friends..

is how small this world is.. and Kuwait is a DiiGMaa too :P

HE: I don’t know your blog.. I just know you are a blogger.. so if you come across this post.. it was nice talking to you and you displayed excellent professionalism.. all the best :)
