Conversation overheard

Setting: A slightly hazy day. PSI 87.

The old man, bless his soul, was making a cast for the young lady.

Suddenly,
Wee (for verily that was the old man's surname): You want what colour?
Young Lady: Huh? Got colour one meh?

Wee: Ya. Got pink, blue, green. ALL I have. (pulls out drawer to show all the unchosen colours, then looks at her with critical eye) You , you pink.

Young Lady: Oh. Ok. (Thinks maybe
pink is okay)

Wee: (takes out a cast of bright neon fluorescent
pink
that can be used for SOS signal or a feather boa in a cabaret)

Young Lady: Err. Uncle, so bright? (okay for feather boa but not for a medical cast)

Wee: (slightly disappointed) You don't want? This pink nice what. Not very bright.

Young lady: Err, Uncle, can change to blue please?

Wee: Ya, can. Blue, pink, green... (takes out the other colours) .. ALL I got.


Thank you, Wee, for the kindness.
