Yy attempts to read time... unsuccessfully!


Yours truly was enjoying his warm bed on a typical Saturday when yy marched in and demanded that papa wakes up as it seems that the day only starts properly when both papa and mama are awake... yawn!

Papa then tried to buy some time by teaching yy how to read time. Papa told yy that if this long needle moved from the bottom, i.e., at the 30 minute mark, to the top, i.e., the 60 minute mark, then papa will wake up. Papa had hoped to get another half an hour of sleep.

Yy said ok and proceed to stare studiously at the watch. Papa had just adjusted his pillow and was about to continue his handsome sleep when barely half a minute later, yy loudly exclaimed, time's up! It looked like yy was looking at the second hand and not the minute hand.

After demolishing yy's hope and educating him on the finer points on the mystical art of watch reading, papa then continued his handsome sleep. Several minutes later, yy the shook papa up again and said, "Why so slow har? It's not moving."

Hearing this, papa gave up and felt that it's easier to just wake up!
