it happened in the morning.
the reason why I dont like to wake up so early to face my mother.
morning, she wanted me to learn Japanese. As in like, a MUST!
me. my reaction? Heck la... why do i need to learn tt for? I wont need to go to Japan to work rite?
den, arguments start. me and mother. mother and father.
father and i are on the same line.
i said to her, "u wan me to study japanese? fine, pay the fees and i'll go for lessons." she retorted: "i'll gif u money." Me:"good!! u pay, and i'll learn. end of story."
i noe wat's she's thinking. having been my mother for so long, i really do noe what she has in mind. i've grown up. i do think now. i just didnt say out those thoughts. cos i noe, she'll jus retort it back with lies.
i noe wat's she thinking of. i wont let the thoughts be fullfilled. i'm a daughter, not a tool. i decided my life. not even my parents can do tt. they play a big part in my decisions, and i shall forever respect tt point, but, they do not do the deciding.
she tells me not to regret my decision. come on, it's jus not learning japanese, wat kind of regrets will i get? she tells me not to regret it ten years later. i tell her, u can wait forever, but u will not see that day, 你永远等不到那一天. we shall see, shallnt we?
to my dearest mother,
u wan me to learn Japanese? i'll rather spend that money to learn Arabian language. Singapore is investing in the Middle East now. I'll probably grow faster if i go there than Japan.
with love, your daughter
