I (22) was working, minding my own business. I work in a room with a group of others. 

One of my coworkers (much older than me, idk why I feel the need to add that) had been busy doing various things, flitting around the room from task to task. So I was aware of her movement, this shouldn’t have surprised me. 

She came up behind me and said my name. In a casual tone. 

I about jumped out of skin! And from behind me I hear her say “what the hell…?”

I whipped around, I assume the remnants of terror still lingered in my eyes. 

She was giving me this really odd look. 

Then we simply stared awkwardly at each other for a few moments before she finally asked me her question.
