Con Jack

Mileage : 24635 km

Jack takes part in an elaborate 'Con The Parents' project this weekend.

Cousin Sha and Kesv evil-ly plot to surprise their beloved parents. Sha is currently studying in Russia, and comes home only once a year during the summer holidays. This time around, with a month long winter break and an increased monthly allowance from JPA she decides to come home in January. And not tell the parents (this is more Kesv's idea, the Con part haha).

To give you a feel of things, the mom Amma is prone to waterworks about Sha being so far away and all that. Surprising Amma (and dad Acca too, of course) with a sudden appearance is quite a big thing. The naughty kids were plotting months in advance and were excitedly replaying various scenes of the 'surprise' meeting. We crossed our fingers hoping it doesn't end with Amma fainting hehe.

So Jack fetches Sha from the airport on Sat, and sneaks her back to Seremban on Sunday. The parents were down from Terengganu as Kesv managed to con them with some reason or other to make the trip here. Then... Surprise!

Hehehehe. The reactions and happenings unfortunately words cannot capture. Suffice to say project 'Con The Parents' was a huge success. A bit of happy tears and lots of smiles all around.

Bad, bad children...
