Dodgy Dodgy Guy!

I was running out of the house to meet Lizzie for lunch today, and I saw a Chinese girl who looked suspiciously like Arty from church. "Arty! Arty!" I yelled, but she didn't turn around. This guy in front of her did, though, staring until his eyes nearly came out of his head! I was very embarrassed.

I continued running along with my umbrella over my head, because it was drizzling and I was late, when said guy appeared beside me, striding fast. "You can put that umbrella down now," he said. "It's not raining!" "Oh!" and in the surprise of the moment my hyena-like laugh betrayed me. He smiled and told me that he often did the same thing, and continued chatting as though we were old friends, making me feel very uncomfortable, but I did my best to reply.

He had a strange pervy expression and his teeth were the colour of Philadelphia cheese.

When we parted ways near the Headrow he wanted to exchange numbers so we could "meet up for coffee" and he gave me his number and asked me to give him a missed call. "Is it alright if I don't call you?" said I. "Because ... you know... " and I shrugged. "Oh, definitely, I understand," he replied, looking distinctly uncomfortable. "Well, call me next weekend if you want to meet up for coffee then..." "I will," I replied, not having the least intention of doing so!

The worst thing was that he told me I looked like his Taiwanese friend, and trying to be flippant I replied that Singaporean girls were very different from other Chinese girls! And with bloodshot eyes he replied, "I know.... Singaporean girls are prettier! Very pretty!" I'm surprised my stomach managed to retain my breakfast (good stomach)!
