Photographic memory

Reading in the morning and walking in the evening are my routines after retirement. Thanks to this habit, I have made new acquaintances. We discuss various topics from journalism to politics. One day, a friend invited me to go shopping with him.

After some purchases, we went to a restaurant for a cup of tea. While conversing, a person sitting behind us kept looking at me and then called out my name. I could not recognise him.

He cleared my doubt. “Three decades ago, I met you when we were in the pharmaceutical profession. I recognised you after hearing your voice,” he said. Both my friend and me were stunned by the man’s photographic memory.
