Papa Says..

Im neither close to my mum nor dad. But i'm quite sure that my dad dotes on me much more, compared to mum.

Take the toe incident for an example.

My mum once said:

Eeee so disgusting. Dont come near me, i dont dare to see. Dont know how you walk de.. Always fall. Nothing better to do right?

And she still try to force me to go Mount E with her. In the end i din go la, cause i'm really in pain and she saw it. Glad she still know how to be understanding at times.

For my dad, it's quite different. He applied medicine for me upon knowing i fell. He asks me every now and then if im recovering well. He comes to my room to check on my toe.

And a few hours ago, he came and said:

If only the wound can be transferred onto my foot. I would do so. I dont mind walking less, feeling painful. At least you can walk properly and wear your covered shoes out.

I felt so touched.

Though we dont talk much, i know my dad cares a lot for me. Though he sometimes find me a nuisance and dependent daughter. I remembered when i was diagnosed with Inflammatory RA, he was so worried. Bought hospitalisation insurance, find out other methods to relief pain etc etc. And he kept asking me how.. i used to find him irritating, asking me a question which i cant ans. Actually, that "how" question came out of his mouth because he felt worried and helpless. At least that's what im feeling right now.

I'm really touched.
