August 30, 05 Here in SG
About me: Simple, well educated, mixed race 30 year old guy. Work in a financial company in Singapore.
This incident I wanted to share with you all as it was one of the most hilarious as well as most adventurous incident that I’ve experienced. It all started as fun and ended up exciting.
I was on a business trip to US. Stop over at Taipei and then a connecting flight to NYC. My boss was supposed to travel but somehow opportunity turned towards me. Then my company realized no flight tickets, as it was too late. So they booked a business class ticket. Well, good for me.
Went to the business class lounge (first time ever...) and saw this real stunner.
About Her: Tall, blonde, big eyes about early 30’s and a smiling face. She walked in with the confidence of a senior executive and appeared a frequent traveler.
Now me: I walked into the business lounge for the first time. Not sure what is what and where is where. I moved slowly as if I knew it all, eyes rolling I found a nice corner spot and sat down. The next minutes a well-dressed lady walked up to me and said “Drinks or snack for you Sir”…I was taken aback. “Err how much to pay”? I cheaply asked. She smiled and said, it’s free. I smiled and said, “I know, just kidding’. Gulped a heartbeat and reached for an orange juice. Again my eyes fell on this beauty. ONE CHANCE I thought to myself. Just one change. Pretending that I wanted another drink, I walked next to her and sat nearby.
Stint 1: I got an idea, slowly I flipped out my phone and turned it off. Then I held my phone at my ear and began to speak. I pretended to be a big shot. I used words like “Multi Million dollar”, “Booked till December in meeting in London, Paris, LA, Dubai (and all the places I knew from school). Then I rejected a multi million dollars deal and said; “no I wont do business with you anymore” and hung up the phone. Then again, I pretended my boss called me and I yelled at my boss. “I don’t want to do business with this company, its your choice, either me or that company” I yelled. Wah I was feeling some kind of excitement inside.......then I hung up.
As I was doing all this crap acting, she lifted her face and looked at me. I smiled and she smiled too. “Lost a deal Huh”? She said. Gulping my saliva, I replied, “Well, happens in business”. I thought inside, go on, talk something, say something but my stupid mouth was frozen. Damn!!! I thought, and as I was about to hang my head in sadness, she spoke. “Im Ella”. I replied “Aaron”. (wah, women also huh, see rich man......can talk already)
She sat a few seats from mine in the flight; I was looking at her all the time. Then I got another idea.
Stint 2: Once we reached Taipei I called my friend in NYC (I have many friends in NYC, that too rich guys). I narrated the whole story and said I wanted their help. Psst Psst Psst…I told them what to do. I also bought a brown teddy bear hoping to give it to her (Freaking 35 USD).
Arrival in NYC
I made sure I was right in front of Ella. Walked a few meters ahead of her, we passed the immigration and suddenly…2 guys (my friends lah) walked up to me with a recorder and microphone. They were press reporters and wanted an interview with me…ha ha ha ha ha…. freaking silly but I did it. Feels really like bullshit, but heck she was so damn sexy that I was going to do any thing. Anything at all
Ella saw it all and she was a little surprised, she walked away setting her passport bad.... She might have thought I was some great big shot businessman and young and successful and whatever freaking thoughts…lol…
I pretended that I would not take any interviews and walked over….my friend whispered “Asshole, you make us look fucking bad like this”. Then they saw Ella, “Boy, go for it Ron”, she’s worth it.
I gathered my guts and walked up to Ella to bid farewell. Surprisingly she asked me my contact number. Freaking business card says “Finance Executive”, Sim Lim Square address. Again, trying to be different, I slowly pulled out the teddy bear, wrote my number on the tag and gave her the teddy. She could not refuse and she was surprised. I asked her if I could take a pic with the teddy, she agreed and that is what you see in the attachment. She said, “You are a charmer Aaron”. I said, “I will wait for your call Ella”, sure I will. Something inside me said, dont take her number.....dont ask...so I did not ask..(Took a huge risk here...)
Part 2: Met Ella again and this time, we did it. FR soon.
I wont ask for points. Its not the bargain. This is to just share with you what happened…rest is your call mates.
