well...i totally can feel ying's agony. and I wondered if mine was worst... i think this is something i do wish to brag and i hope what happened just now will not happen again.
it's all started with my stubborn ah ma. she's already 90 years old and i bet given her health and the care from my aunties...she's a very lucky elderly.
my first aunt took care of her when she's at her place. she'll bring her to the market every morning...she likes kway chap so aunty will buy for her...if not aunt will buy her any food she wants to eat. she can't walk fast now and will be tired after walking for a short distance, so aunt will follow her pace and take the route along the HDB so that she can get some rest under the void deck. some days aunt will accompany her to visit the doctor... other days she will request to go to bedok interchange or even bugis...aunt will bring her to wherever she wanna go. aunt wanna bring her by cab but being a fugile person she refused to take a cab so aunt will follow her wish... aunt will bring her to take a bus, hold her and request others to have patience with her mother.
Ask yourself....if you're in her shoe, will u have such patience? this CNY eve, granny and big uncle will usually go to the temple to pray for grandfather... however, this year, she didn't go because elderst uncle told her that it's a tiredsome prayer...because at the temple, you'll need a climb a few storey up to the altar room.
so today...i woke at my mother's loud voice. i heard mum pleaded her. mum plead ah ma to let her wash her clothes... so when i woke up i joke with my ah yee... i said i'll gladly let my mother wash my clothes and she agreed with me... we said we'll 'bully' mum to ask her to do this and that. somehow she got very unhappy with my mum for not letting her to do all the chores.my mum has no choice..mum or my ah yee had already yelled at her to stop doing all the chores. nothing works and now mum got to resort to pleading.
so after that i went out and on the journey i was thinking that probably we're not able to go 2nd aunt house later in the evening because ah ma has been very unhappy today...and true enough...the moment i reach laoshi's house, cousin called and said something happened at home.
so everyone gathered at my place...even ah ma's cousin family who came to visit her was here...so when i reached my mum was already losing her temper...the very kind lady was mad and yelling out her grievances. i knew i'm the youngest there and was in no position to comment anything... but some ungrateful fellow is making incorrigible remarks...very selfish. he only knows how to point fingers and not think of ways to solve the problems! so i said...'whatever you all said are very unfair'. so i was asked to shut up... when i told them...if i really wanna interfere, i won't have just made one statement! so after the commotion went on...and this time youngest uncle said mum and ah yee aren't calm enough to face the situation...so i made my 2nd statement.. i said 'mum and ah yee have already cooled down...it's ah ma that is still very unhappy'. so this time a kaypo relative said that young people should not talk so much. what an idiot...he was the one who's making insensitive and provocative comments, which i had already held back myself previously not to comment anything.... so i told them that i'm the one who knew everything...if i kept quiet and not say anything, i would be very cold-blooded!!!!
so everyone is very upset with the event.... it also revealed the very selfish side of human...and i knew exactly who is worth my respect.
ps: my eldest uncle left without settling the issue...and very sad to say...my 2nd aunt, who i've always respected, didn't turn up or even call later in the day to check on the situation... and to answer to that idiotic relative...this is really not my business and i interfere in the situation is because...I CARE!!!!
