Fever

Poor Kit. He caught some infection and has been having a mild fever the past three days. At the doctor, amongst the babies with the same infection, he cried the loudest when they treated him. Like the lusty cry of a warrior. The family is supposed to fly back to UK tomorrow, Sat afternoon. Now his mum has to postpone their flight for another week. This aunt is secretly pleased. So, the poor father has to fly back home himself.

I tried to persuade the mother to stay till Chinese New Year is over. I tried to excite her with the idea : Kit's first chinese new year celebration!! But no, she would not hear of it.

Why? I asked.

Cannot. He starting to forget his father already. He crys when his father trys to carry him.

Alamak.
