The duckling drama and Odong-odong (Our Diary, June 28th, 2024)

in STEEM FOR BETTERLIFE4 days ago

"Fatiya hasn't been riding odong-dong for a long time, do you want to take me there this afternoon, I really want to go there Daddy, I beg you to grant my wish today"

By imitating Maruko's style of speaking, Fatiya "reported" her wishes for today. I just smiled and nodded.

"Daddy will take you to ride on odong-odong, but you have to promise that you will help Mommy collect up your toys and take a nap obediently, how about that?"

"Okay Daddy, I will obey you, I will tidy up my toys after eating, and I want Daddy to put me to sleep in the swing later and you can't go anywhere before I wake up."

"Okay, Dad agrees, now dad has something to do for a while, and don't bother Mom, okay?"

"Okay, never mind Dad, you better take a shower and accompany me to eat."

While smiling, I went to the bathroom to clean myself, because it was almost noon. Fatiya talked endlessly about the duck and finally she begged me to open Donald Duck on youtube.

We ate together while telling stories, all the stories revolved around ducks, and ended up watching Donald Duck again and again.

My wife was cutting patterns for clothes to be sewn, smiling at Fatiya's chatter, who occasionally laughed out loud because of the cuteness of Donald Duck facing two squirrels who were about to take the pancakes from his plate.

Because she enjoyed watching, in the end, Fatiya didn't eat much and I finished the remaining food and then immediately prepared for the Dhuhr prayer, while Fatiya continued to watch alone.

"Fatiya... we have to stop watching cartoons, and you have to keep your promise to clean up the toys and take a nap."

"Ah Dad, don't be kidding me, I haven't finished watching, how could I leave Donald alone, he will be sad if I don't watch it to the end."

"Come on Dad, you have to be patient for a moment, I'll clean up my toys later."

"Okay, dad will wait, if you don't keep your promise again, dad will cancel taking you on a ride."

"Daddy must not bully small children like me, or later daddy will be bullied by older children."

"Whatttt.....&%$^#%$%&)(&%$%$%)(&&%^"

The drama about waiting for Fatiya to finish watching continued to go on, but because I occasionally shortened the video without her noticing it, for various reasons, Fatiya finally agreed to take a nap on the swing and as she wanted I was the one who had to wait for her to fall asleep on the swing.

Towards the afternoon, Fatiya demanded to go to Panton, we brought some meals from home for Fatiya, because the odong-odong location was next to a coffee shop. When we arrived at Panton, we didn't go straight to Odong-odong but stopped at several places to buy necessities, including printing photos for the administration of Fatiya's sister's school.

After all our business was finished we sat at a coffee shop near the odong-odong location to eat first. Fatiya ate while playing and continued to chatter about the duck she had wanted for a long time.

When he looked out of the room, the odong-odong had started playing and he looked less enthusiastic because there were no other children. However, Fatiya was finally willing to go up even though no other children had joined her. Even though it wasn't as interesting as if there were other children of the same age joining in, Fatiya was also playing with enthusiasm, but the game had to be stopped because of a power outage throughout the city.

Finally, we were ready to go home, and before that, I had to stop at a shop that sells plastic poly bags for mangrove nurseries. I bought 3 kilograms of plastic bags for seedlings which I will give to the team who will carry out the seeding later. I estimate the number of 3 kg poly bags to reach 1200 pieces. This is enough for the first phase of seeding and the rest will follow. Most of the seeds that will be planted in the area around the nursery certainly do not need plastic because they can be planted directly.

After shopping, we went home and brought some snacks to Sis Ahya and Sis Attura who were waiting at home. All of Fatiya's wishes today were fulfilled and her joy was clearly visible when she told her story to her two older siblings at home.

That's my story today.
