My mother kept calling me yesterday, at consistent intervals of 18 minutes and 32 seconds. However, due to a whole flurry of events that had me on my toes for a big part of the evening, I was unable to return her call until pretty late at night.
After chatting for a couple minutes and finding out that my whole family was at a restaurant eating dinner, she put me on the phone with my grandma. Part of our conversation went something like this:
Grandma: I gave you some lai-see, but your mom has it at the moment
Viv: Why is there lai-see all of a sudden?
Grandma: Because it's my birthday!
Viv:.................... HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA!!!
I had remembered her birthday every single day last week, but on the day of, I forgot.
Ironically, my grandma's first words on the phone were "Gwai suen"... [read:My obedient, nice grandchild].
hahaha. i felt so bad. i'm a hurt machine.
I love my grandma =] and thankfully, she still loves me!
