Yes, as the title suggest; I really meant for it. Absolutely. Actually I intended to write this in Chinese, but as you all know; typing a long passage with Chinese character is time consuming. So I will just mixed it up or even English only whichever possible.
(Disclaimer: This main character is not the first character that…you know what I mean la ha.)
Actually, she and I were colleagues before. First knowing her of course was when I first applied for a tuition tutor job. “Thinking back now”, we didn’t even introduced each other in the first place. I still remembered the situation of the first day. When the time moved towards the end, my “boss” requested me to help her in teaching Arts as my tuition session was over (About one hour more toward “xia ban”). Well, this was “mission impossible” as I even can’t draw a proper, simple drawing. Although her class just simply doing colouring with some other simple arts (she take the kindergarten age one) I still like can’t help anything, as I too can’t remember the “colour theory” (The way we get various colours from prime colour). In the end, I just sit there looking at those kids, leaving her and her assistance. (Really helpless, as the subject that I hated most during my schooling days is ARTS!)
When is time to left, she asks me: “Do you like kids?” (Perhaps she thinks that I am “scared” with those kids, well actually not really. Just the ARTS do make me “sick”. LOL.) Actually I didn’t manage to respond to her, as another colleagues required me to do another thing. Sooner or later, I do “know” her name. Around that timeframe also, feeling that she is “the type” that I will “admire”.
However, when it comes to June (She is a “June” girl); they want to organise a birthday celebration party. Prior to the celebration day (while discussing what was required), I was informed that she already had an “other half” (boy friend). Nothing to say about these. We only had normal interaction in subsequent day.
After careful “examining” what type of books she like to read, I suggested to lend her some Chinese books (can be said as literature) for her to read. She agreed without a second thought (May be she don’t know the hidden intention behind eh). Since the content of that particular book is quite touching (it is “散文类集锦”, got various kind of genre.), the next time when I met her during work time; she told me that she did cry due to the story read. Thereafter, we still held a very nice interaction (even had “exchanged” some badminton skills, of course with others colleagues being together also).
The so-called “bad” thing happened when I decided to let her know that I do “欣赏” during “七夕 2007”. Since it was a Sunday, so I gave her a “thing” (eatable one) prior to it (few days earlier). Her reaction on the spot was pretty like “ha?”; however it’s still quite cute. When we called it “a day” on that day, she still waved at me and saying “goodbye” (seem read from the mouth-lip). So nice…
The “disaster” happened thereafter. Although we did still need to “see each other” and still interacted with each other to a certain extent, the “atmosphere” did seem quite difference. The story ended on last November.
Isn’t it I did mentioned about something like this? (See below for repetition)
{Back in two days ago, I went for photocopying. The location of the photocopy shop is near my tuition place where I worked last year (still the same place, just that still waiting for them to call; don’t know they…!!!). When one of my students saw me, he did really give a greeting by just calling me and give a waving hand. Quite happy. However, when I want to went off to my college to attend my lesson, one of my colleagues went out to put something on her car; I was like waiting for her to just “wave the hand” as a form of greeting to each other, she didn’t even seen it, so lame! So …! Erm…!}
[You might say why don’t you greet her first, I myself also don’t know. Just hoping what was being stated as above. Hehe.]
The important thing is coming: Today (I meant 6/4/08) I met her in a shopping complex with a few other people. The group seems discussing something…don’t know what is it la…I was on the way heading towards wash room…after that, I went in to the hypermarket to “look see look see”, she and her “gang” (let it be, presume) did appear on the cashier there…then I purposely play “hide and seek”…I walked through the cashier line (in front) and went out the market…just to see if she did “alert”…nothing…
Then, I went up to another floor to “look see look see” (again? Yes, again!). The timing looks like very good. When I stepped out from the shop, she was moving direct towards the shop in front of her (I meant the position, hehe)…the “gang” behind had a body language of “Hei there, can you slow down your footsteps? Why so fast?” (Don’t know la, my self-interpretation.) Again, this third “pip” also ended with nothing…
[Now, I know you guys might say what are you thinking about? So…emmmmm. Ya, I also give the same answer: “Tak tahu”. Just had a feel of hoping that she “discover” the fact that I “discover” her first in the first place. Wakaka…!]
Now that is time for conclusion. This shall be in Chinese character. Please bear the inconvenience if you can’t understand it.
或许,总结叫做: 男女之间的交往方式真的是千百种. 虽然, 理论上“恋爱男女”都有共同的“特定性格”与“特定对象的轮廓和相处方式”;但绝对不是能套用在所有人的身上的.正所谓:“百种人有百种情”嘛! 哈哈! 能结识象她这样的丽人同事也不错啦, 虽然看起来“结局”有那么一点狼狈;却也是缘分啊. All the best to her!
(P.S: All the points stated are personal thought to be “shu fa” out. Any inconvenience to the mentioned are highly regretted and hereby apologised sincerely first.)
最后,祝愿天下人都能尽早把“爱情学分”修得满分;顺利“毕业”!Wakaka!
And one more: Really don’t think about “relationship” in workplace. Is hard to have “good relationship and good working environment” together for anyone. (However, still possible; just that you need to be a little bit “expert” nia!)
Bye for now!
