Continued from part III.
So when new year had come and gone I was psyched up and drunk enough to send her a text message. So I texted her with a new year’s wish and a little personal message and a short while later I even got a reply message back… This sparked some (too much) self confidence and a few hours later, deep in the night, I sent her another message. To that, there was no reply.
At the start of my vacation the silence was deafening so a few days later I sent her another message assuming she was at work. Still no reply so I assumed she was either back to her home country or very pissed with me about coming on to her out of the blue. When my vacation was finally over I found out she indeed went back for the holidays so that somewhat explained why she didn’t reply.
During my vacation I logged on our shop’s network to find out if her vacation would be mentioned on the public agenda but it wasn’t. So upon my return I went down to our lovely secretaries and bluntly asked when she would be back. Somewhat surprisingly I got an instant answer so I could begin planning my next move. I even dared to ask the return date of another female collegue (the other girl). They did not even ask me why I wanted to know this but being women I guess they knew I was up to something.
Continues with part V.
