buscando piso 2...

En fin, esto se complica por momentos. Resulta que el chino me volvió a mandar un mail diciéndome ke sus 3 amigos no vienen, solo viene 1, y ke se puede kedar en el comedor, y ke si kiero de nuevo la habitación. Bueno, pensé, ahora tengo las 2 opciones, o vivir en el piso lujoso haciendo de hija del matrimonio pijo (que, por cierto, su hija se llama......sospechosamente..........
Veronica!!) o bien vivir con el chinito amable. Llegué a la determinación que me quedaba con el chinito (por no tener que representar el papel de hija enrollada y obediente) y le mando un mail diciéndoselo. A lo que él me contesta que en el intermedio ya la ha mostrado el piso a otra chica y que ahora me tengo que esperar hasta el miércoles para que él me pueda asegurar que la habitación es para mi (porque es tan correctisimo que no quiere quedar mal con la otra chica). Así que me quedo en el limbo de los pisos. A continuación he pegado el mail que me mandó Cheng, el del "dilema":
"Veronica,

This is a great news to me, but I really don't know how to answer you right now. When I read your earlier email, I had the feeling that you probably are not going to take my room anymore, because another offer is only $600, and it is located at Dupont Circle. And so I started to take appointments with prospective housemates. One of them came right away, and wanted to take the room. That was before I read your 2nd email. So I agreed to her that I would not make any decision till Wednesday when she turns in her cheque. (She is leaving for Richmond and will get back to DC again only on Wednesday). If I knew you would take the room again, I would not have given her the promise to wait till Wednesday. At that time I wasn't sure at all if I would be able to find someone I am comfortable with (like you) in the coming week, and so I didn't want to risk showing her that I am not serious about her proposal. Now, I am in a dilemma again, and I can tell you that I really feel bad about this. May I know how soon you need to confirm with another offer? Are you afford to wait till Wednesday? Please let me know what you think, and we will figure out something. I want you to know that I would be very happy to have you staying here, as I know that you would be a perfect and wonderful housemate. Please let me know what you think.

Best,
Cheng"
