My name is Mak Lang

I have a niece who is pampered by my parents. HMM… Not just by my parents but by everyone in the house. Don’t know why. Probably because she is the one and only grandchild in my family. So everyone loves her. HAHAHA.

Looking back, my father once said to us

“When you guys get married and have your own child, don’t ask us to babysit them. We want to rest and enjoy our free time.”

And guess who was the first person offering himself to take care of his granddaughter?

My dad! -__-“

So my parents were babysitting intan since she was born. They are willing to babysit her considering my sister’s job as a nurse has different working hours. Nurses work in shifts.  Actually, my sister and her husband had planned to send intan to nursery but my dad insisted to babysit. He was afraid that intan will be abused as stated on the news nowadays.

One day, while I was watching tv, I heard intan was calling someone’s name mak mak. Obviously, I’m not mak mak. So I ignored her and continued to watch the tv. But she kept repeating it and I became annoyed. I looked at her and she smiled. So, that mak mak is me???  -___-‘

It’s so challenging to teach her on how to pronounce the word MAK LANG. She has been calling me mak mak since then. It’s not even funny. Because calling me mak mak is not so glamour at all. HAHAHA.
