As texted to my sister and a few friends:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Um\u2026 I may have just backhanded someone by accident.<\/p>\n
\u2022As I was walking, I put my hand up, the one with my phone in it, to rub my nose. On my next step, the back of my hand connected with the side of someone’s face.I was in the process of lowering it\u2026 it didn’t make a cool resounding sound, I assume because there was no real force behind it, but it startled both of us. I’m not sure why she was so close considering I was in the middle of the sidewalk but\u2026 yeah\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2022\u2022 But then, I think she was just .. standing there!!<\/p>\n
I was very startled by the encounter. And when my sister sent me back a laughing emoji I was like it’s not funny! But a few seconds later I started smiling. It was just kind of surreal.<\/p>\n
And something I forgot to tell them in the messages was that after having slapped this woman, she asked if I was okay. \u2026 WHAT?<\/p>\n
