Justin has a nickname - "Angin". You may call him Justin Angin Chan. Cos sometimes his mood is very nice and suddenly can change into Angin Taufan. So last night he was in his Angin mood and started to cry for no apparent reason and everything you say, does won't pacify him or keep him settle down.
Before that we just got home from Houz Depot. So while walking into the house I saw a frog hiding in front of our door. We just ignored it and walked over him.
So since Angin was crying and throwing temper for more than 30 mins, I whispered to him.
JT: UWA UWA UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Me: *whisper* Justin come come..
JT: *walk towards me and cried louder*
Me: * whisper* i tell you something. You better not cry so loud. Cos if you cry loudly, the frog will come wan.
JT: * cry softer* the frog come ah?
Me: *whisper* yeah.. really. The frog will come.
JT: *sob* the frog come take me and bite my bum bum?
Me: *whisper* ah.... you cannot be naughty like this. you know. You come I show you.
JT: *sob sob sob and followed*
Me: *opened the door slightly and point to the frog* You see, you cried so much. The frog came edi!
JT: *Whisper* The frog come ohdi. I no more cry now.
Me: *close door* Shhhhhh so please don't cry anymore. ok?
JT: *whisper* okay. *totally stopped crying*
