This morning, I woke up and to my horror, I realised that my nails are much shorter than before! It has to be her way of taking revenge.I really regretted offending her. The result of me opposing her is the tragic fate of my innocent nails. Last night, we had a quarrel over the television channel. . ."Hey its my turn to watch the television." Fiona, my elder sister, spoke in a demanding tone. "But you watched it last night! Its not fair!" I argued back. She simply snatched the remote control from my hand and changed the channel. In the past, I would simply tolerate her unreasonable actions. However, I am not giving in to her this time! I had waited a week for this programme, and there is no way I would allow her to have her way. I decided to keep my stand firm.
Without hesitation, I snatched it back. The quarrel began with her first sentence of rude words. Vulgarities were also exchanged in the midst of the quarrel. The quarrel lasted for about 3 minutes, before she ended it with another rude sentence. Fiona stormed back to her bedroom and slammed the door shut. I knew I had won the 'battle'. I was glad that I stood firm in my decision and accomplished my 'mission'. Little did I expect the consequences of my foolish act. The reward for me winning the quarrel is a 2 hours show. That fateful night, I turned in after brushing my teeth. But I had clearly remembered that I did NOT cut my nails!
I guess all of you can picture what happened next; while I was enjoying my wonderful sleep, she on the other hand had a whale of time taking revenge. From this unfortunate incident, I derived a survival philosophy---- that is never to mess with women. God knows what she will do to me the next time I offend her.
