I slept over at my friend Wiwin's house last week because I preached in her cell group that night and it was too late to catch a bus back from her village. So anyways before we go to sleep we have this conversation:
Emily: So what time do we get up in the morning?
Wiwin: Well we have to leave around 7... I always get up at 5 to do my chores.
Emily: ... I didn't know there was a 5am. Haha.
Wiwin: *Laughs* Don't worry sister, you can sleep in.
Emily: Ok! Why not wake me up at 6?
Wiwin: That is perfect. Goodnight.
Pretty straightforward right? I thought so too. And yet...
*Next Morning*
Wiwin: *Meekly* Sister. Hello sister! Goodmorning! Time to get up>
Emily: *Feeling oddly rested for 6am* Ok! Good morning!
Wiwin: I am sorry sister, it is 10 minutes to 7.
Emily: ... I... see.
Wiwin: Yes. I came to wake you up at 6, but you were still asleep, and I just couldn't!
Needless to say, I love her.
