Playground Date

Gabe and I took a trip to a nearby playground one evening after dinner. He was playing around, enjoying having the whole playground to himself when a little girl joined in.

He started being a little jittery and pranced around a lot more. He kept wanting to be near the little girl and started saying things like he wants to say hi to his friend, and then ran to where she was playing.

After warming up to each other, they slid down parallel slides together, and ran up and down the bouncy bridge. I learnt that she was 3 years old but Gabe was the taller one. At one point, my son ran up to the girl and wrapped his arms around her, right under the nose of her father!

From a young age, Gabe has shown his preference for pretty females. From my friends to salesgirls to the foxy lady to passer-bys. Apparently, he found the little girl at the playground to be very pretty. How did I find out?

Cheoklet: Who is more pretty? Mummy or that jiejie? (He'd always say mummy whenever I ask him to compare between me and someone else. Of late, he's grown more diplomatic and would say mummy and someone else.)

Gabe: Jie jie.

I wonder how he'll respond to questions related to me and his future wife stranded at sea.
