Today I met a woman. She came to my shop and a customer. When she saw me, she smiled. I couldn't recognise her.
She told me that she was Usha.
Usha was my classmate in the college. I had helped her in the final year exams.
I invited her in. She met my mother and my wife.
A pretty girl now looks like an elderly lady. She is now a mother of three children.
She told me that she didn't know I'm the owner of the shop and was astonished to see me there on the counter.

Thank you. I didn't recognise here.We had been students twelve years ago. I couldn't imagine such a change in someone's face.At college she was a beautiful, young girl. We are the same age. After twelve years she looks like an elderly lady. I was so surprised to see her and she was very surprised to see me.

@Shivram59 Three kids can do that to a woman.

@AmbiePam Yes, that may be the reason. She's is married in a very rich family. Her husband is the owner of many malls.

Thank you. Yes, it was a great occasion. We met suddenly. She didn't know I'm the owner of the shop. Time has changed her face. She looks like an elderly woman.

Thank you. She lives in a city 50 kms from my town. She had come here to see some of her relatives and it was just a coincidence that we met.
