Me and my son. Dok. Pribadi

It's a sign, I have to end this conversation.

I talk to myself, "can he really do that? Won't think about it at all?... I don't know."

What about me? Can I really leave it for a while? Not think about it for few days?
The answer is NO.

That weird situation has been annoying me, buzzing around in my head like thousands of swarm bees flying around the hive. A question to myself, am I over reacting about it?

The next day, I tried to make a simple survey among my office mates. I broadcast 2 questions through WA to 10 people in my office, which are 2 Australians, 2 Americans, 1 Canadian, & 5 Indonesians. The questions are : When you found out your friend gives her/his dog with your kid's name, 1. What do you think about it, 2. What's your reaction?

And the answers I got, 1 'inappropriate', 1 'that's an insult', 2 'rude', all Indonesians said: 'keterlaluan!' The Canadian said, 'she/he is not my friend'. And all of their reactions reflects about disappointment, anger, upset.

To complete the variety of the respondents in my survey, I include my maids at home as my respondents, both of them answered spontaneously, jahat banget!

And the latest respondent is my youngest boy, Reo, he is 10 years old this year, everyone calls him Adoy. So, I called Adoy to sit down with me in my working room at home.

"Doy, I wanna ask you something, I know you always wanna have a dog, if somehow, you can have a dog, what will you name it?" I asked him.

Adoy look at me with a big smile on his face, "I will call it Pluto, or Neptune, or Uranus, it has to be the name of planets."

My laugh break when I heard his answer, and I continued my question, "What if I have an idea to name it with Jessica, or Vanessa or Memey, what do you think about it?"

HALAMAN :
