How was your test today?

Friday night, before have meeting about Chinese Public Speaking, I went dinner with my friends. As usual, we chat around and discuss about the coming performance.
While I was eating, I noticed an uncle who sat next to our table was talking on the phone. I was so concentrate on his phone conversation, it made me totally forgot the present of the two persons that sat same table with me.

It was a conversation between a daddy and his son. (I guess so)

“How was your test today?... Excepted mathematics test, what else?... Can answer the papers?”

“Daddy not coming back today, so you take care of mummy and grandmother, ok?

“Good boy.”

“What’s that?? Aiya, just let brother wear it lar, wear a while cannot die one lar…”

Amazingly, I could remember all the single sentences.
That moment, I felt warm although it was just a simple family conversation. I felt that he is a sweet and lovely daddy.

But after he finished the call, his friend beside started to talk to him, and it spoilt my feeling, everything. The conversation was full of bad words. And the father took a pen and paper out to help his friend write down the “toto” number. I guess it is his career.

It really shocked me a lot. Just few seconds, he totally difference from the father that just talked to his son on phone.

I found very hard to accept, and I don’t know why.

Maybe the father character is far away from my imagination. I don’t know I actually have to feel hurt for the little boy, or I have to feel pity for the father.

In the house or on the phone, the son will only see the best character of his father, who is so caring and sweet father.

Perhaps, the father will never ever want to show the kids that what he is, too.
While I was thinking of these complexities of the society, my friends that same table with me thought I was unhappy and I was crying. It was because that they called my name over 5 times and I never answer them, still thinking day dreaming in my own world.

Soooorry. >< forgive about my too geh poh caring.XD
