Today i was on my way to a doctors appointment, and running a little late when i pulled up to a red light. As i slowed down, a car in the next lane also prepared to stop. I noticed that my neighbor was a middle-aged black man who was staring at me across the lane. At first i decided to just ignore this behavior, until i realized that the man was telling me to roll down my window. Laughing at the obsurdity, i did.
"Ey girl! where you goin?" he yelled at me.
"To the doctor."
"ok. cool, cool. where you goin afta dat? maybe i can meet up witchew."
"uh, bible study."
"o, ok. cool. well i wanna talk witchew."
"we are talkin." i said.
"how bout we go just down dey and talk fo ten minutes?" he asked AS he pointed down the street.
"i can't! i have a doctors appointment and i'm late as it is." i said in disbelief.
"o, ok. well, you got a numba?"
"yea."
"well, can i get yo numba? what it is?"
seriously?
right then the light turned green, so before i left my new friendship, i told him:
"you can't have my number."
as i drove off i could hear him say:
"ok, cool, cool. i'll catcha later den."
it seems like i get put in these situations often.
