烂桃花=lousy love blossom

Recently, a German Engineer from our customer came from German to startup a new production line in our factory.  Being the usual friendly me, chatted with him over the most general stuff (weather & food).  The conversation went like this:

Me:  Is this the 1st time you visit Singapore?

Him:  Yah, it’s my 1st time in Asia too.

Me:  What is the normal temperature back in Germany?  Singapore is very hot right?

Him:  Yes, in Germany, for summer, the highest temperature is 20 degrees.  Singapore is good for holiday, but not for work.  (Smiles)

Me:  (Smiles) How about the food in Singapore?  Has Andy (Project Engineer who’s in-charged for this project) brought you around?  Do you like spicy food?

Him:  Yeah, I like the food in Singapore.  Yesterday I ate indian food and it was spicy, but too spicy for me.  Singapore has many kinds of different foods.

Me:  Yeah, that’s why the F&B in Singapore earns a lot.

Him:  Maybe we can go dinner together?

I was like thinking it was pretty harmless, so I agreed.  Then I mentioned, I’ll ask Andy along (because I didn’t want to just go out alone with him).  Then he said, ‘no, we don’t have to ask him along’.  Then I said, ‘I’ll ask the girls along.  The more the merrier!’  He said ok, and asked for my number to arrange for dinner.  Again, I thought it was pretty harmless and gave my number to him (which was really a bad choice).

Conversation ended.

Next, smses start coming in.

Him:  (About 2pm) Don’t be so shy…

Me:  (Ignored the msg all the way till evening) we have decided to bring you for thai food since you like spicy food.

Him:  Wow, I’m happy…

Me:  Good to hear that.  Will let you know the time again.

Him:  (his english ain’t exactly that good, but this was what he roughly meant) I’m looking forward to Friday, but not looking forward to going back to Germany.  I like Singapore.

Me:  *=_=* – did not reply anymore -

The next day, which is this morning, he walked past my room and popped his head into my room just to say good morning.  Shocked, but replied (for courtesy sake!).

Then later in the afternoon, he msged again.

Him:  You look very nice and beautiful…I like it…

Me:  – did not reply -

Him:  I hope you are not afraid of me.  Europeans are very open.

Me:  (Replied 4 hrs later)  Thanks for your compliment.  Did not see your msg till now.

Him:  You look like very sweetly in my eyes…

WTF?!

When I reached home and randomly browsing through the internet.

I saw this.

Tell me, horoscope or HORRORSCOPE?  And I am so looking forward to dinner on Friday.

P/s:  He is a 39 year old divorced man with 2 daughters aged 6 and 12.

P/s/s:  Told Mr Kutu and he laughed at me!

P/s/s/s:  And don’t any of you dare to laugh at me…
