Funny thing

I ran into a woman I recognized but couldn't place while in line at the local Subway. She looked at me as though she recognized but couldn't place me either.

"Do you work at the police station?" I asked at last.

"Yeah. Are you Steve's daughter?"

"Yeah, yeah. How do you know my dad?"

"Oh, I used to work in dispatch and he would come by sometimes. Funny you don't look anything like him."

Yeah funny. Everyone tells me this, but I can feel my father living in me, right under my skin.
