Running away

There was one duty I couldn't avoid -- accompany my mother on Saturday market days when I had no tournament to play =( I just can't stand it! My mother walks proudly with me, visiting many shops and buying very little. [._.] Why can't she just pronounce my name correctly? 'Wave-le Jong'? It's Waverly Jong, Mum!

That day, I told her not to go round telling everyone about me. She was like .. "Aiii-ya. So shame be with mother?" And I went like LOL. XP But obviously I didn't say that .. I was like 'It's embarrasing .. '

Then her fire started asking if it was really that embarrasing. (Obviously it was!!)

Not wanting to pour oil over the fire, I questioned her why not take up chess and stop going around boasting to other about ME! ~~silence~~

I could not take it anymore!! I ran off. I knocked into an old lady (sorry!) and her groceries were spilled onto the ground.

I was insulted. The 2 ladies called me stupid. I continued running away. (Mum was helping the old lady picked the groceries up .. )

Mum kept screaming, "Meimei! Meimei!" I ignored her and continued raceing down the street, dashing between people. I ran until it hurt and realized I had nowhere to go, that I was not running from anything. There was no way I could escape. (oh no! :/)

It was cold. I sat down on an upturned plastic pail, thinking hard. I imagined my mother, first walking down streets looking for me, then giving up and return home to wait for me. Then, I stood up slowly walked home. Ouch! My legs were numb sitting there for 2 hours!

When I was outside my house, I turned the knob -- the door was locked! (sigh~ how unlucky .. D: ) When I got home, Vincent said I was trouble. I knew I was going to be punished, so I stood there, as Mum began nagging. How naggy! XP Nobody looked at me ..

As I lay down on my bed, in my head, I saw a chessboard with sixty-four black and white squares. Opposite me was my opponent,who wore a smile =D. "Strongest wind cannot be seen, " she said. Ha! Is she trying to look down on me? Dream on .. =P

I closed my eyes and pondered my next move ..

Waverly =)
P.S.: I totally have got no idea why this post is particularly long .. XP
