Daily Prompts: Drawing a Blank
When was the last time you walked away from a discussion, only to think of the Perfect Comeback hours later? Recreate the scene for us, and use your winning line.
I never had the opportunity of walking away from a discussion. I do remember once my cousin told me that my sister-in-law (my brother-in-law’s wife) passed some hideous remarks about the way I wear my sari. Since I heard it I’ve been thinking of telling her off when I met her.
Unfortunately, I did meet her a few times, but could not tell her off as I had planned. Had she said it on my face I’d tell her off. She said this behind my back, a coward that she is!

Dear Ranu,
Some people can be a challenge to live around sometimes. I’m sure people have said that about me sometimes too :-).
All good wishes,
robert
Dear Robert,
You are absolutely correct. I don’t even live in the same city as her. 🙂
I really hate the feeling when I remember the perfect thing to say AFTER the time has passed 😦
Me too, Sonya. Thanks. 🙂
I hate that nagging feeling when we know that someone said something bad about us but we can’t ask them/tell them off because they did it behind our back! Anyway, the best way here is ignore such people, they certainly do not deserve your time and energy!
Thank you, I agree it is a waste of time.:)
