Kids say the darnest thing……

This morning, I became my aunt chaffeur and took her from bank to bank. ( something to do with her EPF thingy) . So, a little cousin of mine, Najla, came with us. I was so like…ooo ouhh!! Not that she`s a naughty sort of kid, just that she a very curious type. I mean VEEERRRRYYYYY CURIOUSSSSSSSS!!! The Why-Why game is never ending everytime she`s around. As soon as she got into the car, she looked at me ( more like studying me from head to toe, just that since im driving, she cant really see my toe) And there popped the very first question of the day.

 “Kak Amoi, kenak kitak sik pakey sumpin?tinga kitak sumbat dah ka?” (Kak Amoi, why aren`t you wearing earrings? Have your earrings hole already blocked ?)

So, patiently, i answered ” Sik, kamek malas mok pakey sumpin ritok” ( No, i just dont feel like wearing earrings today) .

 And she sat quietly at the backseat after that. Ok…i managed to handle her first question quite successfully. Yeah Me! So i drove my aunt to KWSP and she told me that she wont take long. So i waited in the car, with this little cuzzie of mine. As soon as my aunt got out of the car………..she started to bash me with so many questions ! and left me dizzy to answer …

“Kak Amoi, kenak kitak ada handbag?” ( Kak Amoi, why do u have handbag?)

“Kak Amoi, apa ya?? ( Kak Amoi, what is that?) -while pointing at coinbox i had in the car.

“Kak Amoi, kenak kitak pakey cermin mata itam? ( Kak Amoi, why are you wearing sunglasses?)

“Kak Amoi, kenak kitak pakey cincin kat jarik tok?” (Kak Amoi, why are you wearing your ring on this finger?”

“Kak Amoi, kitak sik sekolah gik ka ?( Kak Amoi, you dont go to school anymore?)

After a while, i saw my aunt walking down the stair. IM SAVED! Then my aunt asked me to drive her to Maybank. When we reached the bank, there was no empty parking space, i ended up waiting in the car,with her….again!!!!!!!!!!This time, she jumped into the front seat and started ramsacking my handbag. She took out my perfume bottle ( which i carry with me all the time)

“Apa tok???Kamek maok!( What is this??? I want!) 

“Apa tok kak amoi??” ( What is this??) – while sqeezing my Mr Boroi.

 my Mr Boroi, the other victim

She “inspected” each and every item that i had in my bag. My eyeliner, my hairband, my lips gloss, my compact powder…..everything! Even my wallet…..! where she found a picture in it. A picture of a guy…who is actually a dear friend of mine. ( really, he`s just a friend) . There came soalan cepumas

” Gambar sapa tok??  boyfren kitak ka? “( Whose picture is this? Your boyfriend?)  And i stupidly explained to her as if she would understand. She gave me this sweet yet meaningful smile…

“Kak Amoi, bila kitak mok phaten?” (Kak Amoi, when are you going to get married?)

Which left me speechless and dumbfounded………………..Gulps!

 najla in action….!

 

 caught red handed!

FYI : *sumpin – earrings

          * phaten – pengantin ( which mean kahwin to her)

P/s:- Im the youngest in the family, so im not so good in handling little kids…especially the curious one like her…… But i did my best and i`d given her the best answer possible to each and every question of hers… “Kamek sik tauk ” ( I dont know)
