Mummy's girl

10.30 am, 17th February,
at Mandy's Bedroom


Mandy took a look in the mirror and smiled. 'What a beautiful day' she thought. The sun is not too bright and the weather not too humid. Just the way she liked it. Plus today is Chinese New Year's eve! She put on some clothes and hurried down the stairs to greet everyone. Her father is on the couch reading newspaper and her mom praying. Her dog 'Floppy' seems to be the only one that is excited to see her. It ran straight up the stairs towards her leg. "awwwww.. good morning baby!" she embrace the Maltese in her arms.

"Girl, go eat your breakfast at the back then come help mummy wash the praying table" her Mom turned and smile. "Good morning Mom" she kissed her gently on the cheek. In that brief moment she noticed that her mom is actually growing older. There are more wrinkles on her face and white hair are visible. It is high time she started supporting her. She continued on into the kitchen and ate the chicken porridge her mom prepared. It was her favorite since young. She loved her so much.
