"this one offer til when ah?"
"ok gimme one packet."
"this liang teh can boil how many litres ah?"
"ok gimme one packet."
"huh? oh rock sugar. yea no more already. i go get one packet."

she looked left and right,
straightened her back,
held her head high,
and walked out the door
trying her best to look like a taitai.

up the escalators to the fourth floor.
"mee hoon kuey one packet."
"thank you har."
"chicken wings how much?"
"aiyo so expensive. ok lah gimme two."

with the many plastic bags in her hand,
she decided to do away with glamour.
it was just another few hundred metres to home,
how many cute pple can she spot?

"oh hi!"
hurriedly pushing the fallen locks of hair back into place,
she mustered the most normal voice she could,
"i was just about to tell u i might be boiling some tea later. tell me when u reach home ah."

"YOU VERY AUNTIE LEH"
reilly gasped as he saw the plastic bags in her hand.
"Aunty Jordy."

ok fine.
that's me.
got caught during the last lap home.
