Valentine's Day stalkers
This happened just... well, this Valentine's...

My boyfriend and I decided to go out into the city (we don't get out much together) and jumped on a tram to get to somewhere we couldn't be bothered walking. By this time, I was a little tired, so I rested my head on the window and looked out. Spotted a couple walking down the street holding a picnic basket. Remembered that was our original plan, pointed it out to Scott and sai it was "cute". Thought that was that.

An hour later, we got back on a tram after finding out where we had ben trying to go was closed. We get about halfway, which is still a fair way from where I saw this couple, and they got on the tram and stood right in front of us.

Thought that was a weird coincidence, so we laughed it off and went on our merry way.
Two hours later, we were compltely over the other side of the city, nowhere near where we'd been all day.Who shows up and sits on a bench a few metres away from where we were? Freaky Picnic Couple.

By now we're getting scared, right? Are they stalking us? What was it they had in that bloody basket? why the hell do I keep using italics?

We almost ran away. We just went home and tried to forget about the experience. Thought nothing of it, until...

The girl showed up at my house today. She lives in my area and her car had broken down outside my house. I helped her as best I could, and couldn't help but ask her if she'd been in the city with her "man" the other day. She gave me the strangest look, and it dawned on her. All day they'd been thinking we were "stalking" them, since she'd noticed me staring out the tram window and pointing at them.
She got in her car and threatened to call the police on me, the bitch.
