Christians Don’t Bet…

Big Brother

My big brother Joel and I finally met up today. Out last chill out was… more than six months ago, I believe. Anyway, the occasion was to celebrate my birthday. Belated, that is.

We had lunch at Heeren’s Billy Bombers. The food was terribly disappointing and totally not worth his money. (But I shall not go into detail on that.)

When our food came, he said, “Man, I feel full just looking at this. I don’t think you can finish that. (points to my plate)”

“Oh yes I can,” I said cheerfully.

“No you can’t,” he shot back.

“Wanna bet?” I grinned mischievously.

“Christians don’t bet,” he smiled back.

“Ok. We’ll wager then.”

He chuckled.

We started to dig in when I noticed this huge green thing on my plate. He had one as well. I asked, “What’s this?”

“Looks like cucumber,” he said.

“I think it’s pickles. It looks pickled,” I said.

“It’s cucumber.”

“It’s pickled cucumber. Pickles!”

“Wanna bet?”

I grinned. “Christians don’t bet.”

So, in conclusion, Christians don’t bet. We wager.

Oh my goodness. I can’t believe King Kong was three hours long. More on that—next time.

Heh, that’s cute. :P

“Wanna bet?” is my younger cousin’s favourite line.

Haha!!! Sounds like our family. Dad said not to bet, so the kids will say, “Wanna bet?” the other one will say, “Dad says not to bet.” So the first kid says, “Ok, I’ll promise, then. Wanna promise…?” etc.

(Is your brother a Christian? Are you?)


Yeah, we are. By the way, he’s not my blood brother. Just so you know :)

Lol. That’s playing with the words, but it’s cute. Just the way how two close friends behave. And I totally agree Billy Bombers suck, I went once, and that’s the last visit as well.

Enjoy school while it lasts.
