Inkling

I saw you getting off the tube. I didn’t think I saw you. I didn’t see someone else in the same jacket or with the same hair cut. I saw you. You got off three carriages down from me and I waited at the foot of the escalator for you. I didn’t know why you were there. My heart beat quickly in my chest. I waited. I waited. Eventually I walked back around to the platform. It was empty. A newspaper blew up against my foot and another train pulled in.
 
I left the station and went home. I was halfway up the stairs to the flat when the doorbell rang. I turned and raced back down, taking them two at a time, risking my neck. I flung open the door. There was nobody there. I looked down the street. I looked up the street. I looked down at the doorstep. There was nobody there. I looked at the doorbell.
 
“What’s happening?” I said out loud. “What’s going on?”
 
My blood pounded in my ears.
 
I squeezed my eyes shut tight.


I didn’t want to hear the answer.
