Maggie's Experiment With The Phone

It’s a hot and sunny Sunday. Daddy is tinkering with his phone’s camera as an idea hits him straight between his eyes.

He dials a number from his mobile and the landline phone rings. (Huh? What’s up, Bro?)

Maggie, who was up until then content with her toy house springs up and walks as fast as her little feet could take her. She is laughing all the way. She climbs up the sofa and reaches out for the phone.

Maggie picks up the phone and baby talks in a language only understood by babies. (Oh, dear)

The whole family is in splits but it’s lost on Maggie as she is loving it! (Dear, dear)

Daddy and baby are engaged in a banter when mummy comes with some curd rice and so daddy continues to play with Maggie. She baby talks and ma quickly puts a spoonful of food into her mouth.

Baby unmindful eats it and baby talks with her daddy. Everybody is laughing now and Maggie understands why. She’s having the time of her life talking over the phone and they are all happy for her. (Tsk, tsk)

The food is done and mummy leaves relieved. (Still more tsk, tsk)

Daddy ends the conversation and stops talking. Maggie is silent for a few minutes and then she realizes that she has been duped and then pours her heart out in the wail that follows, (Oh, dear!) all of which is recorded and uploaded on YouTube. (Dear, dear!)

Big bro comes to her aid. He phones her and they talk for, what seems like, ages. Maggie is happy and so is bro. Maggie plants a moist kiss on big bro’s cheeks as they continue to talk. Daddy takes a picture of the innocent, loving pair at their loving best.

 “All’s well that ends well,” as someone once said.

But, hello, where’s MAGGI? 

(Wink, wink)
