Dan and I were busy helping our kids with their toilette last weekend. They had a birthday party to go to so extra efforts were made.
Dan was on the bed, combing his daughter’s hair when I heard Dan said, “Yes you are. But there will always be somebody prettier than you….” He said kindly.
“What did she ask you Dan ?” I enquired when she left the room.
“Biasalah. Am I pretty, Bah ?”
He he….
I went down to iron my tudung. I saw her sitting watching the telly and went to give her a cuddle and dispense all the advice on good manners and etiquettes that I could think of.
She nodded her head, said “Okay, Mummy” at all the right places. When I finished she straight away asked, “Who is prettier than me ?”
Mummy took a big gulp of air. She really, really likes to shock me, this one. Takde salam, takde warning, takde pembuka kata... straight to the point and takde kena-mengena (Ian... read slowly) dengan topik yang sedang dibincangkan.
Mummy pondered a bit and went, “Well….” without any inkling of what the next word should be. Luckily she was saved by Umar who requested for her help. At that point she thanked Allah SWT for Umar's tubbiness and hence rendered him a bit hopeless to button up his trousers.
Phewww !!
