Two weeks back. Again. The routine of picking up Kingston from school. As there were no convenient parking nearby that day, I parked a distance away and walked to the usual spot to wait for him.
"Rrrrriiinnngggg", school bell rang , signaling the dismissal for the day.
School children being released from their classes these days really follow the social distancing guidelines. Bravo!
After 25 mins, the flow was over. Even his last class session teacher Puan Harni drove out of the school. No sight of my son at all.
"Walao eh, this fella sure went somewhere in school to play with friends", I told myself.
With the scorching noon sun and me getting all sweaty on top of wearning a face mask, I decide made my way into the school trying to find him. Before my third step, I saw him.
I saw him. Not alone. With a girl classmate. Giggling. Smiling. Laughing.The girl sported a ponytail. Attractive. A bit resembling Kingston's mother.
I cant control my inner excitement too when I shouted," Oi Kingston, so happy ah?" He was stunned straight away, face became "malu malu kucing" then ran towards me. Haha.
In the car.
"Pa, can i ask you something?" asked Kingston with still some blushes on his face; and I nodded my head in agreement.
"What made you like Mommy?",he asked.
While giggling in my heart, I put on the traditional father face and gave him the whole lecture of "studies comes first for the next ten years".
I glanced at him. He glanced at me back sternly, demanding for an answer.
"I like your mommy because she pretty la. And she good hearted la. And she is also first non-Chinese player to win China Open. Dont play play", I answered proudly.
Kingston immediately grabbed my phone and googled the authenticity of my words. Again, the glance from the corner of his eye.
"Hello pa, you see lah" while showing he what he googled. A photo of a Korean ajumma!
Oh mak kau! Luckily there was no car nearby as I nearly lose control my wheel seeing that photo.
She was actually Bang Soo Hyun. A top player before my time. Then only i realized my mistake in my claim.
Kingston then smirked ,"You forget this still ok. Dont ever forget mommy's birthday in few days time "
I had to detour and buy Kingston a Happy Meal to keep his mouth shut for my embarrassment.
Doesnt matter she is not the first non-chinese player to win China Open, to me she is still the best female player in my eyes. Ever. More importantly , she is the best mother, best wife and best companion one can ever have.
Happy birthday, my love, my superwoman @Mewchoo. To many birthday celebrations together down the road.
To Kingston ; you think your father stupid is it, dare to forget mommy's birthday. Pass you an advice when you read this one day. "The easiest way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once."
Happy birthday wifey. Hehe.
今天是劳动节，也是我全年无休的妻子妙珠的大日子，当然要放闪一下✨
时光飞逝，对你的爱未曾消减
物转星移，你依旧是我的永远
亲爱的老婆生日快乐，感谢你默默无悔的付出，谢谢你撑起了整头家，平时愿我永远的爱能换得你永远的笑。
