During brunch at AMK Hub's foodcourt with my mother & lil sister today,
after purchasing my dumpling ramen back to the table where mum and sis are seated ...

Stranger(aunt): (Looks at me and my sister while sipping her coffee) Wahh, both are your daughters?
Mum: Ya. (looking disinterested, busy scooping ramen noodles and soup out to another bowl for my sis. )
Stranger: Oh wow, you have such a good life! Your elder daughter can help take care of the young one.
Mum: Hah.Ya (forced a smile, as she continues scooping noodles out of my bowl.)
Stranger: And they're both very pretty girls.
Me: Looked up at her and smiled beamingly.
Mum: (smiled and fed noodles into my sister's mouth while shoving her chair nearer to the table)
Sister: Mummy! Auntie says jie jie and I are pretty! She didnt think you are! (Laughs hysterically)
Me: o.O (stupid naive sister, blurting words without processing her brains again.)
Mum: Yaya..Hurry shut up and eat! (fed her with another mouthful of piping hot noodles)
Stranger: (lost for words, mumbled a "Bye" and sipped her last mouth of coffee before leaving)
Me: -____-'''


Bet that stranger will be more careful in showering praises the next time.
To include everyone that's listening.
Ha.
