That Marriage Thing

Nicholas was telling Dad about his school friends last tonight:

"Joohoo, Eric, and Nova are my friends."

"What about Katie?" asked Dad, wondering whether there were still some romantic feelings between the two.

"She is a little bit of my friend."

"Oh, what about Carmen?" Dad remembered that Carmen was hugging Nicholas when he left school the other day.

"Carmen wants to marry me!"

Seeing an opportunity for teaching a new concept, Dad started to explain that Mom and Dad were married.

"Will you marry me then?" Asked Nick.

"Silly. A boy marries a girl." Explained Dad.

Suddenly, Nicholas burst into tears and ran to Mom -- "Dad does not want to marry me!"

"Well, dad is right." Said Mom, "You will marry a girl."

"Then, you can marry me! and Dad can marry Meimei!" -- well, appreantly, problem solved!

BTW, Nicholas had a fever this morning, sigh....
