what a hoo haa!!!

let me tell you the incident first. i was on the tube today, sitting down on the comfy but layered with dusts seat. minding my own business, looking up and down, left and right because really i don't know what to do at the moment.
there was this boy in the tube too, with his mum of course. i guess it was the summer holidays, and hte boy must had an unforgetful time wiht his mum, god knows where.
well, this was the type of boy who never listens to his elders pantang-larang, advises or hints. he also care less about what his mum says about him not to sit on a levelled thing, beside the glass protecting the passengers' seats. the levelled thing is just beside the door of hte train.
anyway, our hero, the boy thought of making a fool of his mum. so, he kept yelling at his mum that he wanted to sit on that levelled thing which was about a difference of a metre from his bum. "Mummy, I WANT TO SIT HERE!!!!!"" i guess the mum just ignore him for the best, or for her best.
i do admire the boy's spirit for not giving up until he succeed to sit on the levelled thing all by himself. he must be flying in cloud nine at that moment of glory, there was this golden smile cracking under his lips adn chubby face.
so, there he was, sweltering on the throne, dangling his feet and swinging his arms, attempting to touch higher grounds with his upper limbs this time. and guess what, that's when his hand went to the red lever above his head, and inevitably he managed to pull the lever down. A soft siren echoed in the tube, the driver's voice resonanced through the speaker phone, the boy 's face grew paler as he leapt onto the floor and scurried towards his mum, his mum hurried to the speaker phone tryng to apologize to the driver and blamed the son for his actions, but still partly holding the responsibility for her child. it must be GRRRoovy for her at that instant! i couldn't possibly imagine the most embarassing moment that my child will put me through.
Obviously, due to the boy's unreasonable and i think, intolerable actions, the driver stopped the tube at the next station, entered the carriage to undo/recover the emergency lever and chaos was rerurned to order. the mum again apologise to the driver when he came in. he said nothing to her.
After all the bombing that had happened in London more than a month ago, any kind of mischief deeds, like the one today, should never be repeated. who knows what the driver must have in his mind everytime somebody pull the lever....
to the parents out there, never underestimate the heights your children can reach, the distance they can leap and the speed they can permit. ALWAYS watch out for them no matter how much you trust them. the mum in this story gave her child a lesson to learn today.
