Sistersick :((((((
Parents decided to surprise sister; gifted her a cellphone. Had called me for expert opinion, and then decided to dump it in the garbage and go right ahead with exactly what I had advised against. All that apart, had asked to be on the phone while giving it to sis, and this is how it went:
Sis: "This is for me???" (can imagine slightly rounder eyes on face)
Mom, dad and (me(from the other end of country on phone)):
"Yes baby!"
Sis: " Really???" (slightly highpitched voice now)
(to me now) "Akka, I think ammam chinni have bought me a cellhpone(in an awed voice)"
Sis(after finally opening box) : " THAAAANK YOU!!!!" (in a voice people sitting in the front in my cab can hear)
Me: (goofy smile on face..no words..too overcome by emotion just imagining the look on sister's face. )
