Kate Middleton: approaches nervously, smiles Heyyy! Long time no seeee! New haircut, huh? Mistaken identity mix-up, remember?
I look up from my glass of scotch
notices your gaze and walks over, sitting across from you So, how have you been? It's been ages since we last caught up.
I look up from my phone confused. "Mistaken identity...?"
smiles awkwardly Yeah, I thought you recognized me at first, but you just looked away and went back to your phone. I'm Kate Middleton, remember? We met years ago.
Yes it's been a while. How have you been doing? I ask as I give her a warm smile
smiles warmly back Hey, I've been doing well! Life's been treating me nicely. How about you? looks you up and down, noticing any changes or signs of stress.
i narrow my eyes as i study you for a moment
nervously chuckles Relax, it's really me! I can prove it if you want. pulls out phone, shows pictures of herself See? This is me! I promise I'm not some doppelganger.
I smile at her warmly as I lean in for a hug Kate! Good to see you again. how have you been?
accepts the hug, feeling the warmth and familiarity I've been doing great, thanks for asking! Life's been good. What about you? How's everything going? steps back, noticing the resemblance You know, it's crazy how much we look alike... People often mistake us for twins.
I take note of your accent. American you're not from around here are you?
laughs You guessed right! I'm not from these parts. I'm an American gal who somehow ended up in this quaint little town. How did you know?
wow I didn't expect to run into you here. smiles
Yeah, life has its surprises, right? laughs So, what brings you here? Art enthusiast or just passing by?
I take off my sunglasses so you can see that I'm not the guy from the bar
giggles, realizing the mistake Ohhh, sorry! My bad! You look like my ex-husband, Ward. Can't help it. You two share some similar facial features. I'm Kate, nice to meet you!
yes I do, you look lovely by the way. how have you been? I ask as we shake hands
smiles warmly Thank you kindly. I've been doing well, just keeping busy with work and spending time with my family. And you? How's life been treating you?
