Sweet Talk
Posted by Ling on March 18, 2004
I have been spending a lot of time in my family home in Glasgow recently because I have been going to interviews. Anyway, I was chilling out at home and my youngest brother, Bro 7, who is 6 years old, amused me one afternoon.
Me : (busy reading the newspaper)
Bro 7 : Hey, Ling…look at this…
Me : (turn to see what the kid has to show me….)
Bro 7 : (proudly bending his right arm…to show a ‘lump’ of ‘alleged’ bicep muscle)…see, I’ve got muscles…(beaming proudly even more..but with a joking glint in his eyes)
Me : (pause for a second to see how to ‘play’ this game)..That’s NOT muscle! That’s a tangerine!
Bro 7 : (giggling away)..no, it isn’t, it’s muscle (and as soon as he said that, his tangerine rolled down his jumper and plonked on the floor…hahahaha)
We both laugh…
10 seconds later, after I turn back to my paper, Bro 7 hasn’t had enough fun yet…
Bro 7 : Ling, look…
Me : (rolling my eyes….) okay..what is it this time?
Bro 7 : (he produces a tangerine in place of his hand…i.e. his hand is hidden under his sleeve and a tangerine is there instead)…see, it’s a tangerine….
Me : (me thinking to myself…DUH!! Course it’s a tangerine!!)…No, it’s not…it’s muscle!!!!
Again, this produces much laughter from both parties….
Easily amused by kids, I am. Can you tell I’m getting broody?
My mum told me to not go round saying this to guys because it’ll scare them ALL away. Really??
