You can’t have a dog, son
Little boy (around 5): “MUMMY, MUMMY, LOOK!!! A DOGGY!!! HE’S SO CUTE!!!!!!!! THE DOGGY IS SO CUTE!!!”
Mum: “Haha yes son, the dog is very cute.”
Me: “Thank you!”
Little boy: “Is it your dog?”
Me: “Yup!”
Little boy: “Mummy when I grow up like 姐姐 I want a small doggy too!”
Me: *awkward smile*
Mum: “No, you can’t have a dog.”
Little boy: “Not now la! Next time!”
Mum: “You can’t have a dog next time either.”
Little boy: “WHY???”
Mum: “Because you’re a Muslim, son!”
Little boy: “But will I still be a Muslim when I grow up?”
Hahahaha I found this so cute because his mum looked completely exasperated and the entire time he just kept stretching his hand out trying to touch Hoovy! I do feel bad that he can’t have a dog but maybe he loves all animals and someday he’ll be a little hero adopter! :)
