That incident negatively affected my work: I started to have blind spots, to suffer from lack of concentration. Above all, when I saw it from the front, out of the Office. I was on the other side of the street and was no longer hiding. Nervous, I went to have a drink in a bar and soon my Tracker occupied the opposite end of the bar.
I was able look at it more closely. It was the same as me: age, height, complexion, dress I noticed, even making gestures and body movements that I were eerily familiar. Until I could deal with him I would have dared to do it?, the guy that paid her drinking and went. Didn’t know if follow him or not, so I was paralyzed, doubting. The next day I saw him: was in a car next to mine at a stoplight. It started quickly, with a Sprint of his BMW, laughing. Didn’t know what upset me more, if the persecution itself, if not knowing what was intended that individual or that were always as mocking me.

It’s the cousin had occurred to me to not have to give more explanations which, at best, would have not seemed convincing. The truth is that not. Do you have a cousin who looks like you?: because it should be a monad of man, gives you my phone number.
