Me: Shorty do you know my “cousin” Josephine is coming to KL tomorrow?
Shorty: Who?
Me: The girl who’s not really my cousin but shares the same surname as me so I call her cousin. From Brunei one.
Shorty: OHHH!!! She’s coming to KL?
Me: Yeah
Shorty: WOW! KL must be a huge change for her.
Me: Ohhh….. like that huh… making fun of people who come from smaller town laaa….
Shorty: Nonono I mean… Brunei is good la.. just must be different la cuz KL is such a big city in comparison. Just like you come from Penang to KL.
Me: Ohh… trying to make your case better but actually making it worse huh.

While paying for parking
Parking Machine: Please insert amount in coins and bank notes.
Shorty: *grabs one dollar notes from me* I WANT TO DO I WANT TO DO.
Me: What? Acting like you never put money into an autopay machine before.
Shorty: HEHEHE
Me: I thought you’re an expert at putting money into an autopay machine. Just like how you last time put in an RM100 note and got back RM98 in coins as change.
Shorty: HAHAHA HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT?
Me: I know la… you told me what. And it took me 1 month to slowly use up those coins until I was done. Terrible la this girl.
Shorty: HAHAHA… actually I did it once more after that.
Me: WHAT?!?
