'I want mcdonald'

got a call this afternoon on handphone - registered 3.39pm
me : helo
small boy : (half shouting in mandarin)  ma, wo yao chi
                    mcdonald..deng xia nie hui lai de shi hou, mai gei
                    wo men chi. mei mei ye yao
small girl : ma, wo yao na ge na ge...
small boy : na lai la, wo gen mama jiang
                    ma..
me : wei, nie jiao shen me ming zi
small boy : chen jian ..... (didn't manage to catch the last word)
me : mama ne? zai na li, jiao shen me ming?
small boy : ni bu shi mama meh? mama jiao...err..
me : ni da chuo dian hua le o, wo bu shi mama o
small boy : dan shi wo shi an mama de hao ma ah, ke yi jiao mama lai ting ma?
me : mama, shen me ming zi? ( thinking maybe my friend's children)
small boy : mama bu zai ah? ni gen mama shuo mai mcdonald gei wo la

before i manage to speak, he put down the phone already. tried calling the number back, no answer...went into voice mail.
wondering what will the small boy's reaction be if mama comes back empty handed? will he throw a tantrum? will his mama think he's lying if he says he did informed her in the afternoon? or will they be going to mcdonald for dinner? =)
