Night # 45
Bus Encounter # 2
Met the same bus driver again when I got onto the hotel bus at Dubai City Centre (btw is a huge shopping mall). This time round he was flirting big time with a female guest on the crowded bus.
Driver: Miss XXX, can you take a photo of yourself?
XXX: Yes I can.
Driver: Can you send it to me?
XXX: (laughed) Sure, if you give me your address I can send my picture to you.
Driver: Oh Miss XXX, why are you so beautiful?
XXX: (giggled) I don't know. I guess I have beautiful father and mother.
XXX: I am shopping for some arabian dresses, do you know where I can buy them?
Driver: You can go to the bazaar. You know the bazaar?
XXX: No.
Driver: I can bring you there.
(the bus isn't suppose to go to the bazaar... So he's using the bus to impress girls now?)
Anyway, everyone except myself, the Miss XXX and her friend alighted the bus when we reached the Gold Souk.
Driver: Ok Miss XXX. I bring you to the bazaar now.
Me: (What??? Aren't we suppose to go back to the hotel now? Stay calm....)
Miss XXX: Ok.
Driver: Can you sit next to me?
(Miss XXX obliged. Driver turned to look at her. We went over the entire kerb!!! Oh my goodness!!!)
Miss XXX: You have to be careful (still sitting next to the driver). You pay attention to your driving ok?
Driver: (said something I couldn't hear)
Anyway, the driver brought us to the bazaar and only realised that I was on the bus when the girl and her friend alighted.
Driver: Miss Yan! I didn't know you were on the bus.
Me: I have been here all the while. Are we going back to the hotel now?
Driver: Sorry, yes we are. Did you look at the girl just now? Do you think she's beautiful?
Me: No I didn't look at her.
Driver: Can you sit here (pointing to a seat closer to the front) so that we can talk?
Me: No I prefer my seat here.
Driver: I used to know this Russian girl years ago and I fell in love with her.... blah blah blah..
Me: (oh my goodness... Not again) Uh huh... (looking out of the window, didn't bother to look interested this time)
Driver: Ok Miss XXX. I bring you to the bazaar now.
Me: (What??? Aren't we suppose to go back to the hotel now? Stay calm....)
Miss XXX: Ok.
