不美丽的误会

刚才一开门进入家门,就看见那只壁虎骨碌骨碌地从客厅的墙壁爬进冲凉房。

我说“那只”壁虎,是因为我认得此壁虎就是那天从客厅的地板爬过,躲到沙发底下的彼壁虎。

我顿时心起杀机,冲到厨房拿出杀虫剂就往冲凉房乱喷。壁虎从墙壁掉在地上,奄奄一息地爬过冲凉房的地板,躲在洗手盆底下。

当这一切都在发生的时候,媛媛一直都站在我的旁边,疑惑地看着她目露凶光的娘亲。

我虽然不怕壁虎,但是我也不愿意跟它们近距离接触,或让它们有机会跳到我身上暗算我。于是,当我看见壁虎爬过冲凉房的地板的时候,我紧张地对媛媛说:“走开!”意思是让她躲避壁虎。

没想到,媛媛一边跑到大门口,一边号啕大哭。而且哭得“哇”着嘴巴没有声音的那种。

我忙着杀生,没有空安抚她。老公就去把她抱起来,安慰了一番。

我终于烫完了一篮的衣服,熏死了壁虎,收拾了其尸体,还要洗刷“案发现场”。等到我筋疲力尽地坐在书桌前要写博文的时候,才随口问一下老公:“刚才媛媛被壁虎吓到啊?”

老公说:“不是,是被你吓到。她以为你叫她滚开,她委屈得不得了。”

吓!哎哟!对不起,媛媛!妈妈太专心与壁虎决斗,完全没有注意到语气,没想到让你误会了!对不起哦!

Sometimes when I'm doing something (like what you did), I tend to forget my tone of voice too till hubby tells me and I apologize to my kids. Don't worry :) I'm sure the next day Jae will forgive you :)

Lydia said...

I believe she will be fine, just give her a kiss and a hug :)

Wowee, so much to be done once you reach home *phew*... I think blogging can really help you to unwind :)

Wow how you you manage to kill lizards?

I usually just try to chase them away with a stick or stay out of their way

Angie said...

Jaimie is fine... thanks! :) just that i felt bad about the misunderstanding. haha!!

Stardust: use insecticide!!! i buy those insecticide that has a long staw-like nozzel. you can aim at corners and your "shooting range" is longer without having to get too near to the pest. but one thing you will need to do after murdering the lizard -- pick up the corpse and throw away!!! that is quite gross. i used disposible chopsticks to pick up the dead thing and wrap in a plastic bag b4 dumping into the rubbish chute. while all these is happening... clement is hiding in the study room. hahahaha!!!

Grace said...

ya, i use it to murder cockroach too!! every murder needs at least 1/4 bottle of the insecticide, no kidding.

Idy said...

I admire your courage. I will leave pest control to Irwin.

I also will leave all the murdering of insects to hubby and will try to hide myself, sometimes can even forget about eunice!! but after so many times I ran away she knew what was happening so when this thing happen again she will quickly follow me to hide!!!

viana, u shd try as much as possible to contain your outward display of fear over such things. if not this fear is bound to get transferred fr u to eunice. children develops the same fear that they observe in their folks (e.g. child whose mother fears cats tend to also grow up fearing these felines). that's how angie and i each develops our dislike of cockroaches and lizards, respectively.

so now when we encounter these creatures, one of us will handle the situation (me takes on cockroaches and Angie lizards) while the other just brings the child away as calmly as possible.
