Almost everyday at 4, you can page us at the pool.
Minutes later, the regulars will come. In cutesy swimsuits showing off their chewable thighs. I mean the kids, of course.
And their regular activity consists of jumping into the pool. Again and again.
And again.
And again.
The bigger boys sometimes run at top speed and make a high jump.
The sillier girls sometimes twirl around until they see stars and fall into the pool.
I love to watch them do it. The gleeful laugh. The 'Geronimo' shouts. And the big splash.
I reckon it will be fun. Cos BIG hippos like me don't dive or jump into water.
Unless on a quiet day, and nobody is at the pool.
..and my son is bored with me cos I don't plunge.
And he keeps saying, "Try it. At least try.." (My exact words when trying to get him to eat the greens!)
I muster all my courage and heave my big ass up the pool. He says, "Hold my hand!"
I stand at the edge. I feel giddy.
The water is too blue! I can't do it!
"Don't be scared! Nothing to be scared of!" I hear.
I can't do it! The water is too deep!
"JUMP!" and he pulls me into the water.
ARGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH~
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~

I kid you not. I shriek like a hyena. If the guard-ess could speak English, she would tell me "Don't disrupt the harmony of the Kingdom of Thailand."It is not fun at all.
I don't know why you kids do it!
Don't ask me do it ever again!
"It was scary! My heart nearly jumped out" I told him. He felt my chest and said, "Your heart is still there. Don't worry."
EASY FOR YOU TO SAY!
And wipe that mahmee-is-so-silly grin off your face!
Cis! Just leave me at the corner next time.
