We were having dinner when a lady suddenly screamed.
I looked at the animal on the floor. The lady was still shaking her legs to prevent the animal from approaching her while Paul and I peacefully analyzed the situation:
me: house lizard? the tail is gone already.
Paul: no no it's a skink.
me: skink? what's that? yaikss. it's a lizard
(meanwhile the skink walked around. Other Uncles and aunties started to watch it)
Paul: it's quite rare, they shouldn't kill it.
me: then catch it. go go!
Paul: no lah, they will think I'm weird
(old man tried to catch the skink using plastic bag)
Paul: maybe I should help them catch
me: ya go go!!
(Paul was trying to catch the skink while another aunty clapped her hands a bit, amazed...)
tradaaaaaaaaaaaa... Paul saved the skink and saved the hawker centre from the skink.
it's quite cute. I'm quite proud that next time the labour division is clear: Paul will handle skink and house lizards, and I will kill cockroaches and insects (Paul is not too cool with insects compared to lizards and crabs) ^^
Sounds good?
I know people may think we are weird, but I am really proud that he can spot animals easily (and he is passing this skill to me!). How to say..it's like life becomes more colorful because you see more living things =) Now it's quite easy for me to spot changeable lizards or other birds on campus too (because he always spot it and say, look here! look there! there's A! there's B!). Hehehehe.
Have a great weekend!
