Put Down

Stick and stones may break my bones. But words will never harm me. So not true! One hectic late afternoon at a check out counter of a supermarket. A long queue. A young boy, a bit too old to be in a shopping cart in my opinion, curiously touched anything within his reach until he accidentally knocked a box of candy bars. "ABANG!" her mom yelled on top of her lungs, startled not just the boy but everyone else in the queue, "Can't you do anything right? You are such a big baby!" You should have seen the little boy's face.
