The 7th month is like another Chinese New Year for Dear's family. Last Sunday, almost all of his father's siblings came over to his house for a get-together cum offer praying thingy. Just to mention, his father has 8 siblings, all married with kids or grandkids. So can you imagine how crowded the 4-room flat was?
Dear told me to offer incense to his grandparents and ancestors.
Me : Huh? What the hell? Why do I need to offer incense to them?
Dear: Why not? I offered incense to your dad too.
Me : What? That's totally different. You know my dad but do I know your grandparents and ancestors?
*silence*
Dear's brother: Aiya. Never mind lah. Don't know then now get to know them loh.
I offered incense anyway.
As per the usual gathering, there were a lot of kids running around and screaming. Not forgetting a few who kept opening the doors to catch a glimpse of the cats which are all hidden in a secluded corner e.g. inside/on top/bottom of wardrobe. Then there's this particular smart kid who saw a Hotwheels playset on the top of the wardrobe. That was when the disaster began. He started to cry and demanded that he wanted it. Dear decided to give it to him and thought that he should have a talk with him first.
Dear: You want this ah? You answer me a few questions first k?
Kid: hmmm... *softly*
Dear: What is your name?
Kid: Weijie
Dear: How old are you?
Kid: 3
Dear: What must you say if I give you this?
*silence*
Dear: What must you say if I give you this?
*silence*
Dear: What must you say if I give you this?
*silence*
Dear: What must you say if I give you this?
Kid: Thank you.
Dear: I pass you the toy when you are going later k? Later all the kids see then they will want it too.
Kid: *mumble*
So Dear took the toy back to the room and I wonder what the purpose of the conversation was for. Maybe I am just not a kid person but I seriously find that dumb. 'Cos after the conversation, the kid started to cry and cry. The best thing was, he put out the ultimate stunt: Vomit. I just can't stand kids doing that. You cry when you don't get things you want. Finally, you cry until you vomit and the adults have no choice but to give it to you. Great. If my kid were to do that, I will just stand there and see him vomit. Or if I am in a good mood, maybe I will pass him a plastic bag. But if I am in a bad mood, I may just slap him on the spot. I am not a sucker, for goodness sake. I will never give in to this spoilt brat man. NEVER!!!!!!
Too bad, Dear is a sucker. He surrendered the toy after his aunties told him to. So a kid can just go to someone's house, cries his heart out, and he gets whatever you wants?!?!?! So the items in my room are out for grabs whenever there are guests?!?!?!??! @#$%^&%**%#@!@#$% The worst thing was, the parents did not do anything to stop him. Maybe I should do this in future too when he doesn't give me the things I want. Or was I doing that already? hmmmm....but at least I don't vomit.
