On The Bus #26... or The Singlish Mom

So there was this kid and his mother on the bus.

The mother took out a chinese assessment book from the kid's bag, presumably to check on his work from school.

The kid said in Singlish, "I anyhow write one!"

The mother kept quiet and flipped open the kid's book. She glared at the kid's work and replied angrily back at her kid, "Aiyoh, why liddat?" She gave a frown and put the book back into the bag.

The morale of the story? Don't expect an apple tree to grow out from a durian seed you planted.
