Stranger

We were just talking
of random things,
when he suddenly asked
How many people in your life know you?
I mean, really know you? Inside out?
Two or three, I answered.
That's a big number, he said.
I thought a bit. One,maybe. Or none?
He laughed.

********************

I don't really talk to strangers, I said
but I liked talking to you
though you are a stranger
or were one..
He laughed.
