Just now about 6pm, my good friend J called me in a frantic tone saying "你这次一定要救我!"
I was startled and asked her what exactly happen and how can i help?
She asked me to try my very best to recall which shopping center we went to with her son Javier where he sees a garbage truck(toy) wanted to buy but never in the end. Her son have been 'pestering' her for months for it, she could vaguely remember few months back Javier did asked her to buy but she declined by saying you've got a lot of toys already u know!
What amazes me is the memory the 4 yo kid posses. I remembered sometime during last month while having dinner with J and her son, the son were again repeating to his mum that he wants the garbage truck. That was my first time listening to it, J then asked me do you have any idea which shopping center was that? I was like HUH? Why i am even in the picture?! Because Javier says i were there too! Woohoo~ I cannot remember a single thing.
That is a lesson to us, never ignore or simply gloss it over when they talk. Then we begin to gather whatever vital information to help us recall where is it by asking the main and only witness, but no conclusion and we gave up! lol
But i guess he wants the 垃圾车so badly that he threw a tantrum today AGAIN that's why my friend called and shouted for help. I told her the only possible place is Serangoon Nex shopping centre because we really could not think of other place that matches whatever.
She called again after awhile, I thought she was going to give me some good news by telling me she found it. But hell no, in fact she says she went up and down to a few places like Kiddy palace, Isetan walking round and round still cannot find any, not even close. She says "如果今天没买到,他是不会放过我的!" Poor Mummy...
I advised her to buy another toy to 'appease' him first. She even called home and asked Javier "can mummy buy you another car to replace the garbage truck?" Luckily he said ok... Funny Mummy... =)
We had agreed never to mention the trucky word because we never know when is he going to bring that up again. lol
Are these kids so fortunate nowadays? At least all those around me are...
Good night 小霸王!
