The other day, while I was reading “Chocolate for a Teen’s Spirit”, I came across a sharing about “Friends Forever”. Here’s a little something I stole out from the passage:

            “You think that girl had bad taste?” I said. “Check that out.” I pointed out the window toward the front of the restaurant. The car that has just pulled up was coated in a sickly chartreuse color; it looked like one giant late-stage bruise. “Why would you actually spend money to buy a car that ugly?” I continued. Molly turned around to look out the window then looked back at me. “That’s my mom’s car,” she said. “She’s here to pick us up.” I was horrified. The look on my face was obviously priceless; Molly dissolved into laughter.

            Hmm, does anyone remember quite a similar incident that had actually happened to us way back in our secondary life? One fine afternoon, after our routine sport practice at Bukit Padang, a few of us waited for our parents together under a big shady tree. After waited for a while, suddenly came an old faded red Proton. This particular friend of ours, let me name her A, simply blurted out, “Punya buruk kereta tu!” And we all looked at that car while B exclaimed, “Itu kereta mami sia lah!” Shocked at first, but then we all burst out in laughter. Do you remember whether you are that particular A or B? The moral of the story here, it’s bad to talk bad about others. Yeah~
