So long story made short. As most of you know, I work at the admissions complex at my college doing customer service and office duties. I go out and greet people and the line, ask them what brings them there and then take the leadership and solve their problems/concerns.
Today, there was this really cute Asian girl crouching on the floor, looking kinda tired in the line. I thought she was just another brat because she was well-dressed with one of those 1k designer purses. Anyway, she needed help ordering a transcript and I took her with me to show her how the system works. As we were on our way inside, she asks "do you have some water?" I responded with "I dooon't, but the cafeteria is here and there," again, thinking she was being a brat.
To my amazement, it turned out otherwise. Fifteen seconds into the order, the closed her eyes, said she didn't feel well and started shaking vigorously right before she collapsed. People were staring and being paranoid, but my first response was catching her right away and carrying her in my arms about 60 feet to a seating area where I laid her down. As I carried her and walked across the main entrance where 50 people are waiting to be helped, I told a male coworker to get a nurse and a female co-worker to get her water. It was like rapid fire commands & they all obeyed, haha. I just took the leadership altogether, opened the door to get her air and undid her sweater so that she could breathe & relax. I felt good and masculine.
People stared and stared some more and 10 minutes later half the police station and fire department are there--an exaggeration in my opinion. Anyway, after it had all passed, I heard her saying "he caught me right before I fell." They decided to take her to the health office and she said "can I still get my transcript?" and the paramedics responded " as long as you feel okay." In that instant, I happened to be walking by (I kept working shortly after carrying her and stuff, but checking on her), smiling, the paramedic says out loud " this is the guy that saved you! and he will also help you get your transcript?! This is the guy right here. :yes: I answered to her gaze & smile with a playful "you owe me twenty bucks, dude!" The whole crew chuckled and then I helped her with her transcript as the cop who was escorting her to the health office watches from behind. At the end of the order and after asking her what happened she says out of nowhere while smiling "hey, do you want lunch or something?" (I know..I know not the best response..)but I said "sure!" and proceeded to write down my number and told her to write hers. I told her to feel better and she smiled, thanked me again and left.
What does this mean? Did me taking the leadership, carrying and "watching over her" rise her interest level? or is this just a polite way to thank me? ( I thought to myself, she could have just said "thanks" and walked away, but she didn't. This is especially meaningful coming from an Asian girl, as they are very, very shy, but on the other hand, she could be Americanized as her style suggests). So what's going on here DJ's? Do I wait for her call, call her myself? Stick to the "she's into me until proven otherwise" mentality? I feel like tis is either a solid green light or simply a polite thank you. Please be detailed.
