Opposite attracts they say.
Do you agree?
The closest example I observe would be my parents.
Ayah loveeeeed to buy stuff. He rarely thought about it twice when it comes to purchase. He just loved to spend, anything from gadgets to cars to animals (yes, poor them animals) to cooking ware (yes, cooking ware) to medicine to cooking condiments.
As opposed to my mother who would faint 3 times go frantic upon hearing the word “beli” itself…Hahahahahaha….
That was why, masa kecik kecik duludah besar ni pon bila tak beringgit….we preferred to run to him instead when we wanted to buy anything that we fancy.
That was why, masa kecik kecik dulu
“Yah…nak beli…erm…pensil picit picit satu yah…”
“Ok…Nah...Blaja rajin rajin”
Jump in joy
“Yah…nak beli…ada beg ni…caaaaantik…”
“Ye ke…Nah.”
Guling guling in joy
“Yah…nak reket baru…yang ni dah bengkok…”
“La…Ye ke…Sian la anak ayah main badminton pakai reket bengkok…Nah.”
Grinning in joy
It is entirely different story if you were to ask this to my mother.
“Ma…nak beli…erm…pensil picit picit satu Ma…”
*cekak pinggang* “Pensil ko yang lama dulu tu mana? Dah rosak la tu...Ah tak payah…pakai je pensil 2B yang ada tu”
mata terkebil-kebil
“Ma…nak beli…ada beg ni…caaaaantik…”
*mata mama jadi beeeeesar giler* “BEEEEEEEEEEEGGGG???????”
Lari
“Ma…nak reket baru…yang ni dah bengkok…”
*tengok muka peminta sedekah anak dia pon tak* “Alaa…baru sekali tu jerlah ko hayun reket badminton tu…dah taaaak payah.”
Berkecai impian nak jadi pemain badminton negara
