Auntie Indian

For the past 1 week, we refused to OPEN the door the for my neighbour Auntie Indian. Each day, she can come over to knock hard on my door and window, just to borrow that $10 each time.

I felt so sorry for her. I think she is very pathetic. Big size, white hair, limping so slowly each time to borrow money from my family. I REALLY am irritated by her. Initially my family will lend her the money, but then she really come EVERYDAY to borrow money. When we refused to open the door, she will knock and knock. Then few hours later, she will come back to try her luck again.

The weird thing, or the best thing, IS she will RETURN the money. Once she return the money after a week or so, IMMEDIATELY the next day, she starts to borrow $10-$20 again. Haiz ...

I always think to myself. Who will want to let down her pride, knowing we purposely refused to open the door, and yet still trying her luck. Thinking of this made me feel bad. But trust me, its really irritating at times too . haiz ..

At 11pm, my door was ajar, mum was sitting by the door side. Suddenly mum shouted at me. I turned, and thru the ajar door, i saw Auntie Indian out there. She looks so hopeful. I went up to the door, well i cant be sitting down ignoring. Expected, Auntie Indian asked for $10. I lent it to her. She looks so happy and grateful, said will return to my dad, which she always did. She left.

Then now follow by argument with my mum. Sis and me are against mum. Mum does not like her to come over to borrow money. Said she has her children etc. Well, if her children are good enuff or rich enuff, why would she let down her pride and come over each time.

Haiz ........ speechless ........ Sad hor ....
