boboi = sin chan

right now i would like to write about my dearest little cousin, boboi. he is only standard three but sometimes i wonder if he is thinking like one.

I tried to tease him when i asked how many girlfriends he has. He paused and started counting his fingers, trying to come up with a number. wow It is like the little version of Casanova. So i got interested to know how he meet them.

Before he started telling them one by one, i was forced to promise not to tell anyone. i need to assure him three times just to convince him. So he started to talk, the story was too long and there was definitely drama but as he is in standard three the drama revolve around school area and the playground. When he was about to tell about girl number four, he scoff and said "love is hard kak ina". i wanted to laugh but trying not to make fun of him , i kept it inside.

how could a kid this young have that way of thinking? one thing for sure he has been staying with grown-ups since he was small, having no other siblings made it difficult for him to act young. He is happy with whatever comes to him.

In his story,there was this one time he bought a flower, not to give to the girl he likes instead he gives it the the girl's best friend(which is also a girl). i was surprised as he was trying to make the girl he likes to be jealous that way. Hard to believe it right? Its like he knows how to play this game and he is good at it. scary.

when i asked him what he understood about love. He didn't answered. Maybe that wasn't the right question to ask a standard three kid. So i pheraphrase my question, trying to simplify it to his level. What do you feel when you play with your girlfriend? He smiled and answered "It was fun"

i suddenly realise that he was a kid afterall. He didn't tried to look for love to begin with. All that he wanted was to have someone to play with. But having those ideas on how to get girls, I don't think the idea was originally his. Someone must have put the idea in his head. Filling it with plans and tactics. But his true motive was just to have someone around.

Thats why, since i don't have a younger brother i consider him as mine. i sometimes indulge him with candies and toys just to make him feel like he have a sister.
