1. She likes to use figurative
Expression while talking to
People, many a time her siblings
Have misinterpreted her figurative expressions
2. Thus, her parents have talked to
Her to reduce her use of
Figurative expression while talking to people
Because it is not everyone who is
3. Gifted at tasking his or her
Brain decoding what she
Has said. She thanked her
Parents for the counsel but
4. Has not changed as she still
Uses figurative expression very well. Her
Siblings have been accustomed to
That and would not jump to
5. Conclusion on any word she
Uttered, for they will give it
Time before acting on what she said
To be sure that they are not
6. Acting wrongly. When she
Got married, her hubby also
Raised the issue with her and
She says there would be no problem
7. She continues to use this
For her children telling her husband that
Such would develop their brain
For they would be able to think
8. Wide and fast. If that is how you
Want it, there is no problem
Says here husband. One day
The woman and her children
9. Wanted to go out and there is
A document that should be taken
Along. One of the children ask
Her about the document but instead
10. Of her to reply the child in
A plain language she speaks
To the child figuratively and the
Child left the document behind
11. All along while driving to the
Place she never bothers to ask
The child about the document until
They got to where they would present
12. The document then she asks
Her child and the child told
Her that she has dropped it
At home because she said so
13. The woman looks furious asking
The child when she said that
And the child repeats to her what
She said, then she told the child
14. She did not mean that she should leave
The document behind by what she said
The child replies that, that was what
She could bring out of what she said then
15. And that she couldn’t ask her because
She has not been forthcoming when they
Asks her the meaning of her figurative
Speeches in the past.
16. The woman pleaded with the
Security agent to allow her in for she
Was one of the contestants at the program
But the security would not allow her in
17. Saying that was the order from his boss
She stayed a while but was not allowed in
And returned home blaming herself.
She lost out of the competition that
18. She has been one of the top contenders
For the price because of figurative
Expression which her children could not decode.
This is when she learnt her lessons, albeit in a bitter way.
