This afternoon, I went for lunch with Dad in the Bukit Baru Taman Sin Hoe. Too bad I didn't bring my camera. Anyway, my camera is with my mom in Shanghai.
There was a Malay boy that I saw. (I started to go flashing back in the Ranong days... He was exactly like the Ranong children.) Shirtless. Green pants. School shoes. No socks. Skinny. I think he is 7 years old. He was eating lollipop. He used his fingers to wipe the lollipop and then lick his finger and there his face expression of sourness shows. I giggled. Dad said he was cute. He walked to the bucket of ice cubes. He put his hand in.
He walked pass our table. He went to a table nearby. It was a Chinese family eating altogether.
Wanted something. The mother of the family showed her hand sign of 'Go Away!' He saw me looking at him. He walked to our table.
"Uncle, ada seringgit tak? Uncle, ada tak?"
Dad was reading newspaper.
" Auntie, ada seringgit tak?"
He looked at me.
I knocked my Dad for a moment. He was waiting for an answer. Dad looked at him.
"Tak da lah... " Dad smiled.
"Ala... Aih!" He walked away in despair.
Dad pity him. Such a young age, that little boy is starting to beg. In my heart, I listed down the factors why he is like this.
+ Maybe he has no parents...
+ Maybe he ran away from home...
+ Maybe his parents treated him badly...
Ah... Many factors. It's really sad to see this kind of children. It really touched my heart just now. I almost cried. But I controlled myself.
Lunch finished. Dad then drove to a phone shop in Bukit Baru. He wanted to buy Nokia 6300. Accompanied him. Parked the car. Walked to the shop.
On the way to the shop, I saw a dog. A white dog. I almost screamed. It has NO RIGHT EYES. All I can see is it's flesh. Pink flesh. Dad said it fought with another dog. So his eyes was bitten out. Eeerk!
However, this is all God's creation. He cares for each and everything and everyone on Earth. He still loves the right-eyeless dog. He loves the little Malay boy who begs for money.
He loves and cares for every single thing on Earth!
