Just queer...

Context: I just stepped into class, greeted them and everyone was sitting in their seats waiting for me to give out their worksheets. While doing so, a boy who was holding a toy in his hands came to me...

J.C: "Miss Sim, I have thought about it for some time and I think I should... er.."

I looked really concern at this moment cos this boy sounded really serious.

J.C: "I am sorry, but I have seriously thought about it and I think I was wrong and could you confiscate this (referring to the toy in his hands)."

Soowei: "Why were you wrong?"

J.C: "Cos I played during science class just now and the teacher did not catch me. Can you please confiscate my toy?"

Soowei at this solemn moment, looked intensely into the eyes of this innocent boy and can't help but to BURST OUT laughing!! He was rather queer and as I thought more about the incident I felt that he wanted more than just having me confiscating his toys, he wanted attention - my attention. What did I do? I just smiled and asked him to go back to his seats. Went to find out a little more about this boy and yup! He is added to my "Love You a Little more" bucket with Cecilia.
