You could also say "Oh no" depending on the meaning of the sentence.

Wow, I’ve got a date with Vasssilis.
Another option here... depends on tone of voice, context etc though.

Well, well !! I am meeting Vasili !!
Well, Well !!, in my opinion is the exact equivalent of the Greek, 'po, po', an expression of surprise mixed with an element of satisfaction/disatisfaction and amazement.

God ( oh! thee mou), can equally be said but it was NOT SAID like that. The text is not, 'OH! Thee mou, exo rantevou me ton Vasili', so why use 'Oh God' or even 'Oh! dear' !!!!?????????
