YO MOMMA
A few people have said that Farizah looked more like her mother than me.
I suppose that's a good thing. We were at an airport's check-in counter one day, and being better at negotiating with airport staff, I would usually be looking after tickets, passports and stuff. When I told the person behind the ticket counter that my family was just 7 feet in front of her and to her right, she said, with a stern voice, "I NEED TO SEE THE PEOPLE TRAVELLING WITH YOU, SIR!"
That was when I realised that the reason I was tasked with this unpleasantry was because N was so much better at looking after Azmina than I was. When she saw N, she was immediately surprised. Surprised at how seemingly mismatched we were in appearance. When she saw Azmina, she just had to ask me, "Are you sure you're with them?" Still puzzled, she turned to N and Azmina and asked, "What are you doing with him?"
I kept thinking, "This is good, just entertain this woman. Don't say YO MOMMA.... Don't say YO MOMMA.... Don't say YO MOMMA"
And I didn't. And everything went quite smooth... as easy as her momma, wearing an I-DA-HO t-shirt.
