Old lady came to find seats (next to ours).
Old man bought & came with coffee & toasts.
However, he walked towards our table.
Old lady called him and nagged at his short/long-sightedness.
He kept quiet.
Old couple made me ponder for awhile as I talked to my man.
Me: "Eh, see. When I'm old, I think I'll look like the Ah-Mm leh".
Man: "Why?"
Me: "See how she crosses her leg?"
Me continued: "Exactly what I do always. Not the girly kind. And see, somemore she nagged at Ah-Pek. U're like Ah-Pek. Hahaha.. Enduring my nags always."
Man: (Laughs)
As we're developing the interest in them, the old lady continued her nags even while eating, with occasional shaking of that leg (I'm so like her). The poor old man just silently sipped his hot kopi and slouched even more into this chair (My man's so like him too).
Others may thought the old lady nagged too much and the old man's too quiet.
But I love this scene very much.
I want to grow old with my man, just like they did.
He enduring her nags for years, silently turning deaf ears I supposed.
She just yakked on and on... and he didn't even mind or showed signs of frustrations.
I guess it takes lots of years to understand each other, to give & take.
In sickness and health, till death to them (and us) apart.
We do.
