Some days, I am just tempted to do things because I find them funny, and other times I do them because I am concerned about the attention or care I'd get from the recipient.
It can be a bad idea. If not terrible.
Some months ago, my sister and I decided to go to the main market for provisions and other stuff we might or will be needing. There are many shops close to the house, but from experience, we were so sure we will get those things at a lesser price if we buy them at the market.
When we got to the main market, we stopped at a plastic shop to get a bucket, and I tipped my sister on what I wanted to do. She encouraged it. Some days, we don't need sisters. Oh, I am kidding. 😄
I took the bucket which I was interested in, walked a bit inside the shop - it was a large building, and we looked around for the shop owner.
Detecting the owner of the shop, I waved as a form of greeting. She voiced out her greeting and asked me if that's all I wanted.
I demonstrated that I needed a plate and a spoon. Anytime I ask for something, and she gives me another thing, I'll make a crying sound and turn to my sister to explain.
The woman later realized that "I don't talk," so she also started demonstrating.
When I was done buying, I decided to ask for the total price.
"Ma, how much is everything?" I asked and waited for her response.
She didn't say a word to me. She was actually dumbfounded...in her mind, what could she be thinking?
The Deaf Boy!
