Sixth Sense

She just popped up with a big heeyyyy!

Heeyyy!
Hey.
What you doing?
Nothing.

I was replying instinctively while my mind started scanning my schooling memories for a hook. I just could not place her.
She was not forth coming with her identity as well. A quick check left me with no picture, no schooling details, no common friends, not even a nickname.
All I had was a huge heeyyyy and my conversation skills to figure out who she was.

As my mind now started scanning my ex-collegues and immediate friends circle, I realized the futility of the effort.
I decided to end the mystery and asked “Who is this”?
The reply was almost immediate “Sorry. My Santosh is different”!

She too must have realized something amiss and checked me out. And my profile picture must have burst her bubble.

As we joked about mistaken identities and bid each other goodbye, I was left wondering how the heck she did figure out it was someone else in exactly two responses?
