Mistaken Identity (LOH 189)

Sometimes laughing at yourself can be the best solution to get out of uncomfortable situations! 😆

Indeed this is true, the situation made me very uncomfortable! On that very day I was playing outside with my sisters in the afternoon and we were all overly excited about the play.
Suddenly my sister turned around and said, "look, Aunt is approaching!"

We all turned and confirmed it was true and then we were running towards her to give her a hug as usual when she visits us.
Getting closer I could see she wasn't very excited at all seeing us, but I still wanted to go hug and welcome her and perhaps ask her why she's sad. I turned around and still saw that my siblings are no longer running towards my aunt to greet her, "Ah, what happened na", I thought to myself.

Well, I still got to where my aunt is and gave her the hug I had for her. She was very quiet, and then I looked at her face and realized, "Gosh, she's a stranger! 🙈🙊" I didn't know what to say, she looked exactly like my aunt.

My siblings already started laughing and the lady too, she said don't worry, things like this happen, we can mistake a person for another person, it's normal.

It was more embarrassing for me, but I was soon laughing at myself 😂. How could I not realize it before hugging her lol.
I soon told my Aunt about the incident, I told her she had a "twin stranger" and she also laughed lol.

It's amazing how our brains can play tricks on us, and we can be so convinced that someone is someone else.

Even in awkward moments, there's always room for a good laugh hehehe 🤗. See you next time!
