Fiction vs Non-Fiction

My DS was seriously reading the Goosebumps series, 'Return of the Mummy'. It is a thriller series.
I exclaimed, "Wow! DS, You are reading Goosebumps?! You are so brave"

He shrugged casually, "It is not even scary "
I could sense the brimming pride in his voice.

In the next couple of minutes, he came running to me from the couch screaming.
"Ha! Mommy!! There is an insect! "

I controlled my laughter and shooed off the teeny tiny harmless bug.
He was still clinging to my legs.
I said, "Why don't you go back to ur couch and read? "

My boy goes, "But, That's where it happened! "

Now if you happen to see 'that brave boy', let me know.

PS: oh well..what do I know.. Fiction is not the same as Non-Fiction for obvious reasons.:biglaugh

 

Thanks Raji !
Raji, You afraid after Rajesh's Vivek-Rupala? Come on girl. :rotflYou know what I do at home, I switch off all lights. Chuck out DH and DS to the bedroom and watch crime series in TV all alone. It will be so thrilling. Try it.

 

Thanks, Jaya!

Jay, it was very fun when he could not even say 'that's where the bug came'. He goes 'that's where IT happened' as if some horror just happened. :biglaugh
