Very early last Saturday morning, I went alone to my endodontist for a review of my precious molar. Everything went well. After that I decided to drop by my parent's to give Mom the long overdue stuff I bought for her from KL. While driving, I hesitated to stop by Delifrance to get Dad some curry chicken puffs which he likes. The reason I hesitated was because the parking lot was a distance from the deli. I was just too lazy to walk that far early in the morning. I was still making the decision when I reached the last turning.
Head : What if Dad has had his breakfast?
Heart : Just get them for him, will you? He likes them.
Head : But he may be sleeping now after a night shift. You wouldn't want him to eat some cold puffs when he wakes up, right?
Heart : He can warm them up.
Head : But you'll have to walk that distance!
Heart : God! It's only a 3 minutes walk. Duh!
Great. So I walked and bought a few for him. Later when I gave the puffs to him, he smiled and thanked me for being thoughtful. The smile on his face when he said thank you was priceless. I wanted to hit my selfish self for nearly not making that last turn. Thinking of his smile is bringing tears to my eyes now. How could I only think of myself when I didn't want to walk that short distance?

So anyway, when I reached, Dad was trying to read some dosage instructions from a medicine box he bought off a shelf. Yes, he was reading it using a magnifying glass!
Dad : Tolong bacakan ni, dik, apa kata dia (he calls me adik cos I have an abang)
Me : Hmmm? **sambil picit picit hp carik camera mode**
Dad : Kecik sangat lah, babah tak nampak
Me : **tak layan pasal tengah aim nak petik gambar**
Dad : Take 2 kepsool 8 hawali. Apa tu makna dia, dik?
**click!**
Me : Oh! Tu dia kata makan 8 biji 2 jam **smile wickedly**
Dad : Oh... 8 biji 2 jam **masih teropong teropong, angguk angguk**
Mom menyampuk : Hah?! 8 biji 2 jam? Nanti jadi macam Brahim Pendek kepanasan!
We laughed. Dad tried to playfully hit me with the box. I tried to hide behind Mom. What a nice start to my weekend.
Weekend was fun. My sister-in-law's birthday bbq chalet.
