A few nights ago as I tried tucking my sister into bed.
"Hey bao bao, do you want a goodnight kiss?"
Blanket is pulled over face, no reply.
"Come on, I came to tuck you into bed."
Eyes peep out, a stricken look, and visible shivering.
"Oh bao bao, why are you shivering? Were you having a nightmare?"
Shaking finger emerges from blanket. Fixed on yours truly.
"You...you...you are the nightmare."
Next day,
"You know, last night, I dreamt that I was sitting at a table with my friends and some guys. Then, suddenly, the guys disappeared or turned into girls!! What do you it means?"
"I think it's clearly a very ominous sign. You're probably gonna end up a spinster like me."
"I think it's because you tucked me into bed last night. You caused the nightmare."
"Well then, maybe I should include that goodnight kiss tonight. For good measure, you know?"
