Ended up finding one another

Where did you find the book-

I came across it while I was cleaning up the mess in-

the closet

Have you ever noticed, you sometimes come across your-
stuff in the unlikeliest places

I know, things go missing for quite a long time and-
just out of the blue, they turn up in a cubbyhole when you least expect them.
It sounds weird, the other day I came across my childhood friend after 30
years. I was at this bar in downtown, and I thought I heard somebody talking to
me in my mother tongue. The big, broad-shouldered guy asked me if I had gone to
Jam school in Tehran. I could not believe my eyes, as it turned out we were
homies back in the day, our friendship going back to the 80’s

What does he do-

He is the owner of the bar now.It is amazing how we drift apart and think we won’t see one another ever again but it
turned out, we immigrated to the same country and ended up finding one another
in the same city, after 30 years
