Ah Kong and Ah Ma. Guess these few years I've been so absorbed with giving tuition and spending time in church etc.. til I've neglected them both. I admit.. Like ah ma always says, ever since my family started going church, we hardly go out for dinner with them. My family used to bring them out every weekend when I was a kid, even til when I was in secondary school. Those days, we often went to their house for dinner on weekdays. Ah ma and ah kong both love to cook and they get pretty excited when my parents and I go back for dinner. Emerick once commented that it's only when my family goes for dinner, then will his family get to eat good food. Haha... =P (Too bad, my dear cuzzie. God created me to be lovable la. So ah kong and ah ma dote on me so much mah.)
It has been ages since my parents and I last went for dinner on a weekday. We went back for dinner this evening. I was at ah ma's house early today. Both my grandparents started pouring out their woes. Ah ma was telling how bad she felt when both of them were mistreated by my uncle's wife and cousins when they stayed over at my uncle's place over the weekends. Ever since my uncle Allan bought a new cluster house, he has been getting both my grandparents to stay over every weekend. Yet, I know that they were not welcome at his place. I was so angry when I saw my ah ma cry. I teared too. But there's little I can do since it concerns the elders. Even ah kong who hardly complains, was pretty angry. I promise to bring them out this Sat so that my uncle wont have to ask them over to his house.
I wont want them to feel mistreated. Ah ma and ah kong has 3 sons and 2 daughters, of whom my mum being the eldest. Although my youngest aunt married aboard for almost 20 years and rarely comes back, she really cares for them. Seriously, only my family and my aunt's family care. Their sons are all USELESS!!!!! I know ah ma felt really upset with all the nonsense with the daughters-in-laws. They were either heartless, cant-to-bothered or rude.
Seeing all these sagas of in-laws problems in my family and among my friends, I really pray that God will enlarge my capacity to love my in-laws in future. I really need to plan my time well to spend more time with my grandparents.
Ah kong always dreams of living in a big, big house. I wanna earn lots and lots of money so that I can buy a big house to let my parents and grandparents live in.
