I'm walking in the mall, phone in one hand (texting) coffee in the other. Girl stops me and starts asking about credit cards and signing up.
There were two ppl (the girl and a guy) I king of ignore the girl as they're talking . My attitude is nonchalant with a little bit of "I'm busy, make it quick". They're both asking questions about me being a student (part of the credit card process) they both are studying in econ, and they find out that i'm doing my MA in econ.
me: alright I'll sign up, only because you (the girl) were so ballsy in stopping me when I was doing work on my phone.
girl: smiles and laughs.
They're both interested and are asking questions and I slow down and give a little more attention to them, nice guy encouraging stuff. The guy leaves for a few mins.
me: so what year are you in?
girl: 1st year.
me: Wow really? I thought you were around 23 by the way you talk.
girl: blushes/smiles no ... I'm 18![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
me: so what do you plan to do with your degree
girl: starts talking about econ and going into law etc... (i'm listening intently of course)
Then the guy comes back (damn) he starts asking questions again about my school and back to business as usual.
I noticed that as the girl is fillng out forms that she's left handed. I'm ambidextrous so when she handed me the pen I grabbed it with my right and and made and obvious switch to my left hand.
girl: you're left handed? me to!
me: not many of us around, we're better than the rest![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
girl: totally
At that point I was finished and was hoping the guy would be leaving to help someone else but noone came. I left it there and said goodbye.
I knew I shouldnt go back... but hell you can't be afraid to get shut down... so I came back about 10 mins later and touched her shoulder.
me: i'm going to borrow you for a sec, (looking at her then the other guy)
her: uh sure!
*took her a few steps away from the guy* the guy follows
me: (to the guy): don't worry I'll bring her back.
Me: (to the girl): I'd love to have lunch with you sometime to get to know you better.
her: mmm i have a boyfriend.
me: really? I have a tree in front of my house.
her: ... what?
me: oh I thought we were talking about stuff that's not important. (she still looks confused). Well I'm just asking to have lunch to get to know you, I'm not asking for a date.
her: well...I'm getting off work soon but I have to rush out, maybe if you come by next time we can talk?
me: How bout you leave me your number and we can find a better place to talk.
her: sorry I have a bf.
me: alright, see ya.
