I asked dad how he proposed to my mum.
He said he asked her to escort him to the bush where he always hunted for bush meat and other bush animals.
While she sat at a corner waiting for him, he went over to his trap, to check if it had caught anything.
Lo and behold. Dad had two bush rats to himself.
He quickly set them free from the trap and rushed to where my mum was.
Asked her to close her eyes and she lovingly did.
By the time he asked her to open her eyes, he held the two unfortunate creatures towards my mum and asked:
'Will you marry me'?
That one said yes with joy in her heart.
And that was how those two hoodlums married, knacked theirselves and gave birth to me.
No wonder since I was small, I've been behaving 'bush bush'.
I feel like I descended from rats.
Oh my God! 😭
