“Har. What you want”
Want free Crocs?”
“Wah. Really ah? Why ah? Why so special suddenly?”
“No lah. There, I wrote a line about how we wanted to get you a pair of Crocs, but you didn’t want it in the end because too expensive for something so plastic looking. They didn’t like that we thought it was plastic, and wanted to proof that it isn’t*. So they are offering to give you a free pair for mother’s day lah! Want or not! If don’t want I take for myself haha!”
“Want lah! Of course want! I don’t get free stuff often okay! Some more expensive stuff! Take!”

“Haiyah. Why must they make the shoes so ugly ah.”
“Hehe, What to do. Sensible stuff usually not pretty wan mah. Go try the shoes lah. The nice girl will help you”

"Wah your heels very high lah. You're almost as tall as me now”
“Yarloh. Long time never wear high heels already. You know, last time I always wear high heels one okay. Now can not. Give me knee pain and back ache mah.”
