Whenever I return home, Mama Lai will start making me play dress-up. Mama Lai and me around the same height and build and she will pull from her closet all of her recently acquired items and make me model them out for her.
"You should take this. And this. You are still wearing old clothes! You need more NEW clothes."
And I will protest knowing that Mama Lai bought these clothes for herself. And Mama Lai responds:
"I'm old. All clothes look better on young people. Enjoy while you can. When you get old, you wear clothes to cover old body to not frighten people."
