"Ara~ what a great idea, Lily. We have to destroy this backyard to burn these damn pests and make sure that these pests don't have any offspring left in our backyard," replied my Mom with a cold tone of voice and her gaze fixed on the dying rat that managed to get out of the dug hole with its half-cooked body.
My question seemed a little contradictory to my Mom's expectations and answers. Destroying something to build something new, I couldn't believe these were the words that came out of my Mom's own mouth.
"This is going to be a tough job, what kind of backyard are we going to make other than aesthetic destruction like this?" I said in a light tone and a little sarcasm towards my Mom's actions who wanted to destroy the backyard.
Kaabbaamm!!
