Daily Prompt: Bad Signal

June 24, 2015

Someone’s left you a voicemail message,but all you can make out are the words: “I’m sorry. I should’ve told you months ago.Bye.”  Who is it from, and what is this about?

Let me see a voice mail message: “I cannot understand the first few sentences, all I can hear is ” :

“I’m sorry,I should’ve told you months ago. Bye.”

Told me what months ago, I keep thinking, who promised to do what for me, I’m racking my brain, what did any one promise me, I just cannot make any sense out of this incomplete message. So I sat down thinking, one  after another I started scratching names of possible persons who could have called and left this useless message.

Suddenly I remembered it was Kavita who told me months ago she was coming to my city for a visit and would I mind if she stays with me, I had told her I’d love to see her. I have everything ready and now this message, some people if I may say so are ill-mannered, did their parents forget to teach them courtesy, I wonder. After I went through all the work she leaves me a measly unfinished message. Next time she says she wants to come to my place for a visit I’d just have to make my excuses.

May be there is something good coming out of this, at least I won’t have to cook or take her  out to see the city. Goodbye Kavita, nice knowing you!
