The Killing of Pawikan
Chinese love eating healthy foods. And one of the healthy but exotic food is the “pawikan” or sea turtle. Is “pawikan” called as sea turtle in English? Anyway, I would just call it turtle for short.
As I had blogged before, turtle is my favorite pet.
Just a few days ago, there are the turtles on the pail. When I went to the kitchen, my father-in-law is holding a turtle and a knife. Remember those days when the terrorists held their captives. And in international TV, they killed their victim, using a big knife, slicing the poor guy’s neck. That’s what I saw on the kitchen.
I screamed a little. But then I quickly remembered that my husband told me to not react like that. My father-in-law might get hurt he says. So I look back and check on the turtle. I also told father-in-law if I can again take a look. I’m smiling at that time.
Poor “pawikan”/turtle/sea turtle.
