Back to where my childhood was spent, sometimes. Subang Parade.
After picking me up from training ground, mummy said she wanted to get her facial stuff. So, lunch would be there too. It was our first at Manhattan's Fish. The food was so so... But the service was undeniably good and fast. Back when young, I always called for refill through my mum. And as we grow up, we do it on our own. But here, in Manhattan's Fish, I didn't have to lift a finger or whatsoever. Instead, once lifting my head after chewing off a chunk of meat, my glass would be gone for refill.
Mummy is regular at this facial shop. Since young, it would be the same stall. And since young, I wouldn't understand what those bottles displayed were for. I mean, yes it's for the face. But, why so many kind? The sales girl would go like this, "this is for tonning your skin, only at this period of time, for this kind of skin. Now this is for blah blah blah, at the time, for this skin." By time she finishes, it would have past 7 minutes or so. Weird thing is, mummy would just listen to every single thing she blabs about. Then, as usual, my mummy would forget which one is it that she uses. Then they'll be talking about the feeling of the "gel" or the colour of it. Wouldn't it be easier if they just made one kind that suites all faces and for anytime use... Sheesh. Oh, and till now, it would always be the waiting that troubles most. But, I guess I did well yesterday with my expressions. Well, I guess facial products to girls are like computers to guys, in my family. Both have English words on it to instruct you what to do next, but we guys just don't get a thing about those cream or gel or whatever it is.
We also went to get a new water bottle for myself. I went to pay while mummy went to toilet. I paid and got the balance and went to look for mum. When I gave back the coins to mum, it felt like my parents giving me coins to save when I was young. Last time, my sisters and I would even fight for 10 cents. Times like daddy paying the bill or mummy drying the clothes or mummy dropping the coins on the floor would cause an argument between us kids, as always. The arguments last time was much more heated than it is now. Those were the days...
I guess these are signs of me aging. Fwalaowei... I just realized I'm about to reach fifteen already. When I was 9, 15 year olds were old to me. Haha. Time really flies...
