False Alarm!!

Monday, November 17, 2003

I was in Puchong having dinner with Mum & Dad, (my Parents) since Mei had to work late that night. As I was leaving Puchong, I called her whilst she was having dinner with Mummy & Daddy (Mei's parents). As I was planning to drop by Centerpoint, I asked if she needed anything from Guardian (a local pharmacy chain). I knew that she wanted me to purchase a home pregnancy kit (HPK), just wanted to put her on the spot while she was with her parents.

Anyway I think it was MYR25 for a pack of 2 kits (not cheap), I got home and started read the instructions to fulfill my curiosity. After all it was the first time I have seen a HPK up-close. Simple enough to use but deep down inside I of course thought that Mei was just being paranoid about being pregnant.

I was so not convinced that she was pregnant I recalled saying to her.... "if it is positive, wake me in the morning, if not I will call you later in the day" - that was how certain that Mei was being paranoid which is pretty much her normal self. If you truly know my wife, she is quite the drama queen.

Well, true enough I woke up at my usual time and called her just before lunch. I could tell that a small part of her was sad but at the same time a little relieved....

Prophetic Words!!

It was a slow and relaxed weekend so Mei and I decided that we will visit our favorite kids - The "Lau" Musketeers. We watched as Lu Jen was engulfing All the Dragon Fruits on the table while Tjia Yee climbing all over Mei.

They are sweet and adorable kids especially Lu Jen. Lu Jen is the youngest of 4 and the kind of baby that if you don't have a child, he will inspire you to want to have some right away.

As I was glued to Lu Jen, Mei was relaxing on the couch with Tjia Yee by her side listening to Jean’s stories. Jean was telling us a story about how anointed Tjia Yee is especially when she is looking out for a parking space. When Tjia Yee prays it is almost guaranteed that Jean will get a space. Just as she was completing her story, Tjia Yee laid her hands on Mei's abdomen and said "Got Baby". You could imagine the look on Mei’s face. She was blue, shocked beyond words could describe because she was after all a week late. When asked that Tjia Yee repeat herself, in her own words she said "Got Baby Inside" and then walked swiftly away.

We later found out that she was blessed with prophetic wisdom. Two weeks later we decided to visit Tjia Yee again to seek after the baby gender....and while we are at it, let’s go for next week's 4D as well.... but since she is still not too good with numbers, we may take a rain cheque on that till she turns 5.
