asked an aunt whether she is going to attend our high school's alumni homecoming.
aunt: 'no... we don't attend homecomings...'
me: 'oh? how come i saw you in one before? you even had a presentation... you danced...'
aunt: 'the 50th?'
me: 'i'm not sure... maybe...'
aunt: 'oh... it's because we had batchmates who were part of the organizing committee... but there were very few of us that time... we were just one table...'
me: 'just one table? i remember the crowd was cheering loudly while you performed... those were not your batchmates?'
aunt: 'no...'
me: 'wow! if your batchmates cheer for you that's just expected... but if strangers enthusiastically applaud your performance then you must be good. you didn't know those people?'
aunt: 'maybe we did...'
oh, hehe...
