My wife Lisa always grumled about me being an uncaring father who never cares his own child. Daisy, my little nine years old daughter is quite a wayward child, I guess. Lisa said that Daisy's always whining and being clingy and noisy, distracting her daily works.
"Do you know how hard it is to deal with a noisy nine years old all the time alone? You really should spare some time for her. Make her a doll or something. You're good at such things.", she said.
Well, it's true that I'm pretty handy. I used to make bread out of making stuffed animals.
I thought she was overreacting, but since she really looked displeased, I promised I would.
... So, I has spent a few days with Daisy while Lisa's on a trip. She will come back today. And I should say I really admire her. It was more tired than I thought to deal with that little girl. But Lisa won't complain anymore.
"I'm home, honey. It was really great to take a rest finally. It's been tough days for you I guess?", Lisa said cheerfully.
"Maybe a little. But it was pretty fun, though. I made her a doll."
"Oh, that sounds sweet!"
She entered Daisy's room. Soon, I heard her scream. Why? I just made her a doll.

번역은 아니지만...레딧에 올렸던것들 중 제일 마음에 드는 작품. (추천수는 my boyfriend나 cinderella가 훨씬 앞서지만)
영단어 다의어랑 영문법 말장난 괴담이기 때문에 번역할 수는 없지만 개인적 애착으로 올림.
