Possibly His Only Chance

Posted in: Daily Life | Tags:

A few days ago, I dropped off some pants to get hemmed. They weren’t ready when I went to pick them up, and this turned out to be a major inconvenience; there were some things I had to do at the mall and I wanted to get them all done at once. The tailor told me when they would supposedly be ready and I made my plans around that.

When I made the extra trip to pick up my pants, there were two Thai women, leaning over the counter, flirting with him. Being a Thai man, he flirted back. The women stood to the side when I approached the counter, and kept making comments and then asking me in return, “You’re looking good these days. He looks good, doesn’t he? And you have a good business going. It’s a good business, isn’t it?”. I was about to say something regarding the tardiness of the service, since I was thoroughly irate about the extra trip, but decided against it. Here he was, being hit on by two women. Who knows when he’d have the opportunity again.
