“Hello”, she said over the phone.
“Hello”, I replied in my best voice I could muster
“Is this you? What happened to your voice? You sound like the villain Ajit!”
I could hear her laughing over the phone.
“Gee! Thanks for the concern. Makes me feel so much better! I am picking up random numbers from the phone directory and addressing unsuspecting strangers as 'Mona Darling’ now”, I snapped back, offended, hurt and coughing.
“Looks like with your throat, your disposition’s gone too. I feel sorry for Ma. She has to suffer a sick and cross tempered daughter during holidays”
I could now hear giggling too.
“Grrr…” (It was all I could manage to say as my throat revolted at that moment and any voice stopped coming)
“I just called to say I am having ice-cream, your favourite combination – butter scotch and black currant. You enjoy the vacation and get well soon!” she trilled on the phone and hung up.
Grrr… Why are younger siblings always such a pest?
