Sharkteeth: [in her whiny voice] Mymy, gusto ko na ng baby sister.
[Mymy, I want a baby sister.]
ThePseudoshrink: [not really paying attention] Uh-huh...
Sharkteeth: [more forceful this time] Mymy! Gusto ko na ng baby sister!
[Mymy! I want a baby sister!]
ThePseudoshrink: Sige, try namin ni Deden.
[Okay, Deden and I are gonna try.]
Sharkteeth: [so overjoyed I can almost hear the skip in her steps] Talaga? Saan tayo bibili ng baby sister? Sa Arranque*?
[Really? Where are we going to buy my baby sister? In Arranque?]
*For those not in the know, Arranque is a place in Recto where you can get dirt-cheap pets, exotic or otherwise.
Kumareng Grace's daughter wants 12 brothers and sisters. Good thing Sharkteeth only wants a baby sister. Cheaper!
ReplyDelete12? I should count my blessings pala.
ReplyDeleteYup! 12 brothers and sisters. So at that rate, dapat ngayon pa lang simulan ko na, unless may twins o triplets on the way!
ReplyDeleteKung kayo sa Arranque, kami sa cartimar bibili...:)
hahaha! the things kids say are sooo funny sometimes!
ReplyDeleteKumareng Grace, I'm thinking of going to Bioresearch this time...para mas maganda quality. Hehe.
ReplyDeleteCaryn, yes, they do, and oftentimes, they're so much more fun to be with than adults.
