Wolf

you'd think that this only happens in fairy tales to teach children not to tell lies. well, just yesterday nite in the far away land of pj, my wife received a call requesting us to go check on the boy. he had earlier sms a friend to say that he is badly injured. now the boy had had a stroke before and still walks with a limp, knowing he had these disadvantages makes it more urgent. as we rush to the scene, i was expecting to see pool of blood or a limb or two out of place. but....
we say his brother & sister was seated comfortably watching tv. hmm...maybe he's fainted upstairs and they didn't know about it.
the bell did not work so we sort of shouted to get their attention. they, looking out saw a weird guy and a weird gal at their gate and were a bit apprehend in coming out. not after they recognize my wife did the brother came out. as cool as can be.

= where's your brother
- my brother went out with my parents.
( this is bad, he's had and accident and he did not tell us where he was, how are we to locate him )
i tried to call c to see if he can call boy to find out his location, but as his phone was ringing he arrived.
= he sms C and said that he's injured, so we rushed here.
- nolah, he and i were in a heated argument and my parents took him out.
= oic...

some small talk with the boy's brother, c and wife .......
after a while we went off.
i'm thinking to myself, ok.....2 more cries of wolf and you're out !
anyway all was not lost as we took the occasion to tell our daughter who loves to fight with her brother that she should love her brother and not grow up to be like the boy.
