You go work, I go mall

Recently she came to know of a certain she who does not work. The person will leave the house every weekday with her husband. While the husband goes to work, she will go to nearby shopping centres and hang out the whole day until the husband gets off work. Sometimes the person will join the husband for lunch but most certainly the person will eat dinner with her husband at restaurants or roadside stalls before returning home. What the person does in the shopping centre, she does not know as the person does not cook so does not need to do grocery shopping and seldom wears any new clothes or new shoes so does not buy new clothing. Can't the person just stay home and watch TV3, 8TV, NTV7 or any other tv networks that are under the umbrella of Media Prima? The person also never put on any makeup, does not even go to any hair or nail salon. Nevermind about a haircut, as far as she can tell by looking at the person, the person does not even comb her hair. Even though her husband is a homemaker now he often says to her, "I want you to tell me off immediately if you ever see me looking sloppy." Now she has come close to doing that but always stop herself in time. Instead she told him that she has some cravings for oriental dishes like wattanhor and asked him to cook those for weekend lunch. She can't imagine having chap fan for dinner like the couple do everyday and having to eat with chopsticks. She feels so lucky that her husband agrees to be a homemaker. Thinking that to herself, she swung by her MIL's house to drop some soya tubes off and pick up the children's registration cards. On her way back, she noticed that traffic lights have been installed at the new junction near Mr. Siew's house.
