Money back guarantee?

Colleague C, who works in another department, will pop by my workstation once in a while to say 'hi'. She will make 'small talk' - talk about weather, job, etc. Other than such small talks, I dun really know her very well. I only know that she is 3 years younger than me, she is married, her husband works shifts and her kid is 2 years old.

I received an email from her about two weeks ago. Guess what? Yesh, she wanted to borrow $150 from me. She said she needed to pay her bills. She would return me when she gets her July pay.

.

I though for a while. I can definitely spare $150. It is not a big sum (I dun mean I'm rich) but I can buy alot of things with that sum - 1 simple evening dress, 3 pieces of G2000 apparel, 10 pairs of earrings, 12 hairclips, 15 hairbands, and the list goes on ... =p

.

In the end, I decided to lend her the money. Cos Mr Fortune Teller never said I cannot lend money to others. I just hope the amount helped and she really used it to pay for her bills.

.

Just last week, I received another email from her. This time she asked for another $100. She said she has some more bills to pay.

.

I thought it was pretty strange. But I found it hard to refuse. I had wanted to lend her another $100. My colleagues thought that it didn't make sense. Why didn't she borrow $250 from me in the first place? Why did she 'suddenly' realise she has more bills to pay a week later? One of them even suggested that I see the bills. Erm, tat's pretty rude. Maybe she really had bills to pay. At least, she didn't use 'hospital bill' or 'hospital operation' tactics.

.

Hmm, I still believe that she really needed money to pay her bills. Well, it's payday today. Let's see if I get my money back. Well, I won't be upset if I don't. 花 $150 看清一个人 ——— 值得!
