Somebody called Sum Birdie Soukoo
Last night, someBirdie flew into our house and pecked on the packet of dried sea cucumber my parents left near the door.
NO, IT WASN'T MEANT TO BE A BIRD TRAP.
It was a pure case of human-house-intrusion-by-bird.
Anyway, 小鸟's Christian name is Sum, family name is Birdie and Chinese name is Soukoo.
He was sporting a mohawk hairstyle and looked like he is in his early twenties i.e. young.
Hanxu heard it pecking on the plastic bag holding the dried sea cucumber and thought 7th month came early. You know.. like, strong wind and paper flapping sounds?
When we looked, we were utterly disappointed. Imagine yourself expecting to meet the first and probably only ghost in your life - you have read about immortals and been wondering whether what's written in those books is true and finally you're going to prove it today yay! - but then what you see is not even in your scope of vision.
Because we had to look downwards an angle of depression of at least 80 degrees and go, "Chey, so it's only you."
But Sum was too adorable to ignore.
We thought he came to look for food. We tried to coax him into eating ants but he refused, so we guessed he may be a vegetarian and gave him cornflakes and was rejected again, afterwhich we sort of gave up.
Don't blame us for not trying hard enough. Come on, even if he's a Muslim, cornflakes will do, right? Sum was just being picky. And the rule for educating your kids in terms of their diet is this: Want to eat, eat. Don't want to eat, SORRY, GO HUNGRY THEN.
And we went to sleep.
On hindsight, he may just have a stronger character than others and wanted the sea cucumber or nothing. We should have gotten an idea of his attitude problem from his hairstyle.
But Papa and Mama wouldn't have allowed us to feed their sea cucumber to Sum lah. HECK.
Ok bye.
