Annie AKA Nini - The Maid
The maid did many wrong things. It got mummy so pissed off. She was literally screaming at her. Bubble’s radar flashed ‘War Zone. Do not enter the kitchen.’ Apparently, the maid threw mummy’s one and only favorite skin peeler straight into the stinko rubbish chute 6 stories down. A little check to understand the situation yielded a conclusion from mummy that the maid does not have a brain. -_- Simple things such as keep the towels there not here, put the stool there not here, have been repeatedly drilled into her head but to no avail. The maid even washed the WHOLE fan. Of cos... the fan is now far in the depth of the rubbish chute. And to my astonishment… the maid washed our laundry three times in a row because she doesn’t know how to use the washing machine. Poor clothes… Okie… my point is the detergent that can be used for 2 months is finished in 2 weeks. So anyway, today mummy (read: the super effective, efficient, cleanliness freako housewife) went crazy when she couldn’t find the peeler to peel apple skin. (Sometimes things do add up and explode.)
Also, the other day the maid asked mummy for sugar. For what? To regain energy. Then, the other other day, she got LOST washing the car in the basement. She forgot which floor we live. Haiyo… like so funny yet pitiful at the same time. Not to mention, she does a good job (so far) in ironing the clothes. Unfortunately, she is one forgetful maid who is not focus. ‘Never use brain one’ as mummy keeps repeating since an hour ago.
Sigh... I don’t know what to feel anymore. I heard Claire scolded the maid too. I feel the heartache because she is a widow with a 10 year old child who is left to grandmother’s care while the maid works in Singapore. Kind of poor thing if you think of it… like alone in a foreign country with a foreign family… don’t understand English… keep getting scolded. Duh. I just don’t like the idea of someone sitting on a tiny stool beside the washing machine munching on meals.
(Nini is now playing with Adam. Does she even knows or cares that mummy is pissed? Mummy, on the other hand, is complaining to everyone. Shooting people who steps on the red line. On days like this... Daddy and I know we should just keep our mouth shut tight tight and listen.)
