A new boy has moved into the flat opposite to add to the best friend in the whole wide world ever expanding quota in the world of the brat. We first had three distinct categories of best friends. For the uninitiated, mamma will provide a quick guide. Best friends from class. Best friends from the building. Best friends from among mammas friends' kids. These were further divided into category and subcategory. Rumbuctious best friends. Mentor best friends. Best friends he loves to hate. And now the latest, best friends to play in the compound/garden and best friends to play with in the passageway.
This new friend is older, a hostel boy and coupled with the current nextdoor BFF who is also older than the brat, mamma sees incredible games being played where the brat is generally some sort of prey/thief while the older duo chase him around in circles brandishing guns borrowed from the brat's basket. Mamma occasionally steps into the game to ask if the brat should not have the chance to play cop, to realise the brat is quite chuffed about playing the bad guy. Playing policeman is boreding. I be the chor. Iss fun. The chor hasturun very fas! Future career choices apart, mamma worries about the ideological issues implicit in this choice of role playing. Therefore mamma sat brat down for a quick discussion on why he should be looking at other roles from his current fave of being the hunted one.
Brat, says mamma in sternest tone she can muster given ridiculousness of discussion. You have to be the chor sometime and police sometime. You cannot always be the chor.
The brat doesn't buy the argument. Mamma. You is not pappa sometime and mamma uddertime. So why I be sometime chor and sometimes police. I will only be the chor.
Deep troubled sigh from brat.
All this be this be dat is conphusing. I only be brat. And dat is final.

Excuse me but I couldn't control my laugh at "mamma uddertime".
And that dimwit of a teacher must really be slow herself if she can not see what vivid imagination the brat has!!
