This can be loosely translated as Trouble Queens. You should have by now guessed who it would be. My two daughters are the ones obviously.
Have you heard of the term ‘Eating my head’? These kids do it. The older one has this dimple in her cheeks that is a deep pit you fall for your life. Guys should be beware of that. With one all conquering smile, showing the dimples prominently, she will ask the most atrocious thing so very casually. Like this thing when she was a 4 year old, when even buying the first secondhand car was an achievement. She asked ‘Dad, can we not manage two cars?’ Because our car was not purple color! And now she is planning a Singapore holiday. And with exams around the corner, she will put her best pantomime actions to escape for a 4-hour dinner. And try saying no to her. The face will become so small that you need a screw gauge to measure it. And what, it is a Xerox of her mother’s face that you fell in love with. How will you even attempt saying no?
The next one is even better. Afterall it is a later version. So much more feature packed. Small sized but more potent than the earlier models! The whole face is some 5 sq inches. In that there will be a fight for placement of eyes, nose and a mouth. But expressions, you will have the whole world in that. The eyes look like grapefruits twinkling. That one, if it comes up to you and keeps playing pranks and pulls and pinches you, you know that all that is needed is permission to watch Disney channel. The moment you give up fighting that charm, you cant even see her. Would have flown like a fly to her room. Then it is only next day. I named her a Free Thinker and there is not a single day I don’t regret it. Nothing can be gotten out of her without her will. But there is nothing you can keep with you that she wills too. Will sleep; literally sleep with the new thing she gets for the day. Will give one huge smile and strip you off all your estates. And won’t tire unless she does it.
These two Imsai Arasi’s would sometimes, just sometimes allow their mother to talk with me and literally occupy all my time. I get a deep suspicion that it is an evolutionary conspiracy. To make daughters looking like your wife to whom you can’t say No and they enjoying your discomfiture. I need to barge unannounced into my home one day and I am sure I will see a terrorist training camp with ‘you know who’ as an instructor.
But all said & done, what a lovely little trouble they are. : ))
