Bernice - Housing Agent


    Chapter #51

    Suddenly here so active, kns… once my trail is discovered, all come liao.

    -——————-

    gog: How many have you closed so far?

    B(ernice): Erm…

    Uh-oh…

    B: I just started last month, so…erm… but I promise, I’ll do my best if you give me a chance.

    FML. A newbie. I had half a heart to just end it and go off. I felt she lacked experience and would likely not be suitable.

    A server walked over with two plates of food and placed them down. A pizza and sandwiches.

    B: I thought you might be hungry as you haven’t had dinner.

    Thoughtful, and she’ s right. I kind of let my stomach take over my head and decided to hear Bernice out.

    B: Can I know where you intend to purchase?

    gog: I would prefer somewhere like XXX, XXX or XXX.

    B: You want high or lower floors?

    I was busy chewing onto the pizza when she asked and got me deep into thoughts. Which one is ideal, I would prefer higher but if the lift breaks, then I’ll have to climb a lot. If too low, pedestrians, cars, coffeeshops would make it noisy.

    Yes, actually I am, I had breathing issues also, it was really bad, I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t get out of house for fear of dropping dead. Dunno why this time it’s so bad.

    Sorry folks, really feeling still sick, been a week, not getting better fast but definitely recovering

    No, it’s not STD or AIDS.. or HIV, lol.

    -—————-

    B(ernice): I got retrenched and it was hard to get a job.

    *Gulp*. I felt guilty.

    gog: Take it as a break lor, slowly find.

    B: Yep, thought I’d do property for a while until I find a job and can maintain this as additional income.

    She smiled bleakly like it was killing her to say it.

    gog; Can ask what you were working as?

    B: I was doing admin stuff. You know, photocopy, issue writing materials, purchase office equipment, liaise office stuff.

    In my mind this is like an office boy job. You know, the kind where you hire somebody to do all the work you don’t want to do. If she’s a degree holder, at her age, with kids, married, isn’t that very menial work for somebody her qualifications?

    gog: I’ll keep a lookout for you.

    B: Thanks.

    Again, awkward silence. I must have touched on a subject I shouldn’t have. If this was a date, there definitely won’t be a second one.

    We continued discussing and she shared how she will arrange for me to view resale houses as I cannot buy new one on my own.

    B: You cannot buy new or BTO, you know?

    gog: Yeah, single ma, unless you want to marry me.

    Again, at that time, I wasn’t thinking much. It was just my insensitivity talking. Bernice just did a weak smile and let it go.

    B: Budget?

    This is the part where it got tricky, how do I tell her, or let her know what my budget is?

    gog: Tell you what, you look for it, the budget let me worry. 3 or 4 room would be fine. I want a room for gaming, one for guest (in case my family wants to come over) and one for myself.

    B: Wah, you strike toto is it, single buy 4 room?

    Well… nevermind.

    It was almost 9.30 plus when it we finished discussion. Crowds were still there but not much.

    B: Okay, think we’re done, I will update you and arrange you to view the houses I have in mind for you.

    Not wanting to be a spoilsport, but doubt she would successfully close my deal. She’s still new, and need more experience. Anyway, no harm trying.

    gog: Sure, you stay nearby?

    B: Oh I stay Tampines.

    gog: Woah, okay, you drive?

    B: Er, no.

    gog: How did you come here?

    B: I took MRT.

    In my mind, I thought all housing agents drive flashy cars, big cars, this one actually takes public? And not even a taxi but MRT/bus?

    Guilt sets in, which I hate. For eating that dinner, I felt obliged to ask.

    gog: I can send you home if you’re comfortable.

    Good day all, finally can breathe better but still…..

    Enjoy, more blue ahead!

    -—————————-

    B(ernice): Oh but I don’t want to trouble you.

    A princess would have already grabbed the offer and demanded I send her home.

    gog: It’s okay, you help me find a nice house and get a good price.

    B: I need to get breakfast for my kids first.

    Wow, this mother is very family oriented.

    B: I need to get some bread will do.

    gog: There’s a bakery in the basement.

    B: Oh.

    I led the way and brought her down. She took a while and finally bought a few pieces of bread.

    B: There. I’m done.

    gog: Let’s go, I’m parked in the carpark at the interchange.

    Bernice quietly walked next to me and we didn’t talk much, at least I don’t remember we did.

    Reaching the carpark I gestured to Bernice that I’m parked the other side and we walked on.

    Nothing dramatic, got into the car and headed down towards PIE.

    gog: Which part of tampines?

    B: Near xxx.

    gog: Isn’t that…

    B: Yes.

    gog: Condo XX, right?

    Bernice nodeed. Woah… when can I be retrenched and still stay in a condo?

    Short one, tad busy. Will see if can update again later.

    —————-

    gog: Not bad.

    B: My husband paid most of it.

    gog: Good, can he pay for my HDB?

    We laughed. It was the first time I see her laugh without hesitation or any form of unnaturalness.

    She looked relaxed now that business talk is over.

    gog: So how many kids you have?

    Her WA photo shows 2, I knew and I’m just trying to break the ice further.

    B: I got two! Very naughty ones. Boy and girl.

    gog: So young already two?

    REALLY, I’m not trying to flirt but it came out naturally.
