Maggi Saves The Day. Again!

 

Maggie’s got the chills:

 

All was not well at 24/3, Worli Seaface Road, on that hot and steaming Sunday morning when the family woke up to a sniffing Maggie. Evidently, all was not how it was meant to be.

Mummy was crying. My baby’s got COVID! Hey Bhagwan raksha karo! Daddy declared, “No going for a swim at the club.”  Bro protested and angrily got up and spilt Maggie’s hot cup of MAGGI “soup”.

The whole family was quiet for a while, and then Maggie realized what she thought had happened had actually happened (Dear, dear!)

And then rose the most heart-wrenching wail that touched the Gods in Heaven and back to Earth (Oh dear!)

… and the tears and her sniffing, would have given the rain clouds a run for their money, if that were possible. (There, there)

Mummy picked her up and scolded bro, no Maggie? Bad boy! (Blink, blink)

…And then bro started crying. (Make that a double tsk, tsk)

Daddy was having fun. He asked his crying son to stand at an angle. Wah, what a dance between light and shadow, all of which was recorded and uploaded on YouTube (dear, dear)

And bro started bawling even more. (Oh, what can I say? Dear, dear!)

Maggie was somewhat mollified especially when Mommy brought some more soup, this time some for bro and some for Maggie.

Mommy was relieved. Maggie had a good appetite…

…no cough

…or loss of taste.

 And fever? None of that, either.

 It must be a change of weather.

 Whatever it was, Maggie and bro were unmindful as they dug into the hot bowls of Nestle’s MAGGI Noodles, their once-a-week favorite breakfast

Phew! What a way to begin your day!

All was back to normal after a tear-jerking episode on a sunny Sunday morning at the Gupta’s.
