...again, papa just cannot say no to the kids in this matter...
So yesterday, off we trudge to the fish shop, (when we teasingly said it was closed najwan slapped his hand on his forehead and said 'alamak' a-la abah).
The boys got a pair of fishes each. Hania decided she did not want the hassle of taking are of fishes and declined the offer (smart girl :)).
At home, papa prepared the new home for Najwan's fishes, much to everybody else's envy coz it was much more than a bowl filled with water like Amjad's and Azraf's.
Papa's comment was he'd give them 6 days before the thrill went off.
This morning, Amjad's fishes died -- already!!
We were out when kakak made the call, so we dropped by at the fish shop and he got his replacement pair.
Today, Azraf was playing with his fishes. He swore they knew when he called their name -- oligo and koko, and he insisted they prefer the name oligo. He wanted to leave a candle outside the bowl at night so that his fishes would have light.
Ah, the thrills of taking care of your own pets. 5 more days, is it?
