Just got back from the Chinese restaurant where the pretty Chinese girl works.
I found that I did something that surprised me. I asked the hostess, who I know is attracted to me, to always seat me with the pretty Chinese girl whenever I come in. I would not normally have thought to do that.
Got seated with her.
She looked upset and distressed the whole time I was here, and was avoidant during the first half of the time I was there.
While I was there a couple of people were seated behind me. There was a little girl and what I presume was her mother.
The little girl sat with her back to mine in the booth behind me. I was eating and reading and overhearing snippets of their conversation.
I overheard the little girl say that she wasn't yet 9 years old.
Not too long after that, this little girl turns around in her booth and says to me, "Hey, dude!"
I was of course turned away from her, and wasn't at first sure if she was talking to me, but when I turned, she was turned around in her stead looking at me with a huge grin. Her mother said, "Don't call him dude, be polite."
"Hey, Mister Dude!" she responded. I had to laugh. I turned to her and said, "My name is Shannon. What's your name?"
"Willow," she said, again very enthusiastically.
Then her mother apologized for her interrupting my "nice quiet dinner". I laughed it off and returned to eating.
Then I realized that I had just been opened by an 8 year old girl. I almost choked on my food trying not to laugh...
The pretty Chinese girl was serving the little girl and her mother and the mother scolded the Chinese girl for throwing away crab that her daughter had not eaten, instead of putting it back, claiming that "there are people in this world who are starving, don't you ever do that again! That cost you your tip."
I was in shock. And I say this as an American citizen... it embarrassed me. I almost tripled my tip for the poor girl, but I had already written it out and I could not, and had no cash. It did not surprise me that she ignored me as I was leaving. If that's how her day was going, no wonder she wasn't responsive to me.
The woman who did this, and Willow, were very happy to say goodbye when I left.
Very strange experience.
