The café was plunged into a sepulchral silence while the unknown woman stared at me with wild eyes, as if she had seen a ghost. Her face had turned paper white.

-What's going on? Who are you?

The woman shook her head frantically, backing up a step.

-I-It's not possible... You... You are identical...

A shiver ran down my spine - had she mistaken me for someone?

I was about to demand an explanation when she let out a gasp, pointing a trembling finger at me.

-The scar! You have the same scar as my husband on your neck!

Instinctively, I brought my hand to the scarred skin under my jaw. An old memory of a throat surgery many years ago.

An unimportant case I never mentioned.

But she knew, how could it be?

-Who the hell are you,” I cried, jumping to my feet.

But the woman had already rushed out of the café, her eyes wild with horror, as if she had seen a specter walk among the living.
