So we decided to go swimming together yesterday.
Shorty: Did you know that if you hold your breath, you will float no matter what?
Me: *Holds breath and drops motionless into water. After 5 seconds starts floating to the top*
Shorty: HAHAHAHA!!!! You look like a piece of shit floating in a toilet.
Later on while still swimming.
Me: Come Shorty, you stay on your float with your upper body and I push you around from the back.
Shorty: No dowan dowan!
Me: Why? It’s fun. Like a train ride.
Shorty: Dowan.. you sure dunk me wan.
Me: I won’t la. That’s not my intention.
Shorty: You say wan ah? If you dunk me I’ll divorce you.
Me: That’s a little extreme don’t you think?
Shorty: Just so you know how serious I am.
Me: Ok fine fine.
*Pushes Shorty around the pool*
Shorty: WOOO!!!! SO FUN!!!! WOOOoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
Me: See? Fun right? Threaten to divorce me some more.
Shorty: HAHA!!! Okok.. come my turn. I push you.
Me: Ok. *gets in position with float*
Shorty: *pushes and hums Mission Impossible theme*
Me: Shorty the theme song sounds exciting and all but look how slow I’m moving. The theme song should be Mr Bean.
