Is it a coincidence or the fact they both live in the same town?

Anna had just moved into her first home. She started painting her living room. After all, it is the first room others see when they enter her home or notice from the street. She first lined the trim with painter's tape to lessen any errors. Anna pries the lid off one can of paint and stirs it around before pouring it in the pan. She starts to apply the paint to the wall when she notices the result is too lumpy. Anna stops painting and closes up the paint can. She grabs a plastic bag to drop the used roller into and gathers her belongings to head out the door. Maybe she was misadvised at the store about which nap size to get. This may affect how the result comes out.

Anna arrives at the store and makes a beeline to the paint desk. She approaches one worker and explains the situation. Sure enough, Anna had the wrong nap size so she swapped it for a different one and meandered over to the checkout. She stands behind a young guy with a nice build. He turns around partly to pick up an item from the rack. Anna noticed that he also had a used paint roller in his hand. Hmmm! His paint color was similar to hers. . .a light tan color. What are the odds? It's his turn at the register and the cashier starts to give him grief about the used roller. He gets disgruntled and Anna steps in. She calmly tells the cashier that she, too, is swapping a used roller for a new one. This intervention relaxed the cashier, and the guy thanks Anna. He exits the store, Anna finishes her transaction, and the exits the store.

On her way to her car, the same guy approached her. He greets her, and thanks her again. She asks him what color his paint is. He replies with the color name "Wheatberry". Anna compliments his choice as she held up her used roller. They both exchange smiles and go their separate ways.
