Kids Are Sure Honest

The other day I brought Zen and Kay to the pasar malam. Wanted to get some fruits and fish. Oh, do you realise how expensive fish had gotten?! The fishmonger even told me that it has and will steadily rise towards CNY. When I ask if the price will come down after CNY, he said he wasn't sure... Hmmmm... But enough of see lai talk :-)

Anyway, we were walking towards the fruit stall when we saw the man walking in front of us (think he was in his 50s) threw his finished cup of drink on the ground. Zen's first reaction was "Mummy, why did he throw that onto the floor?" I was disgusted and so was my boy. the difference was that this boy of mine talks spoke out loud. I paused a little and saw that the not-so-civic-minded uncle did not turn around or think that my son was talking about him despite being only 2 steps behind. There was another auntie who was walking towards us who heard Zen's comments and turned around to look at who he was talking about :-)

So I continue walking and temporarily abandoned my plan to buy the fruits (the uncle stopped at the fruits stall). But I also took the opportunity to talk to zen about the act eg "was it right" and "where should he had thrown it?" :-)
