When my little sister was born, my mom got me a present "from the baby" so that I would like the baby. I was really excited because the baby knew exactly what I wanted. But then, I asked my mom "Mama, where did the baby get that?" and my mom said "there is a mall inside my belly"
She tells me she told me right after she was just kidding, but somehow I missed the joke and I believed that there was a mall inside my mom's stomach for the longest time.
