The Ultimate Fool of the Day...

Morning started with heavy headache…Tomorrow is week end and I was hating it to even think that my week end might be spoiled by this headache…I have been pressing my forehead with my cold hands from the moment I reached office…and as I heard one of my colleague discussing with the other about an idea to fool her husband, I realized “Hey, Its April 1st today and it’s the April Fool Day…”

Somehow, a cunning thought came into me…Uhmm…maybe I can have a little laugh by doing some prank….but then what…I am not sure, if I could get any such innovative idea to fool my family…I hate playing pranks by saying some bad things about somebody…a bit of superstitious here…but then what…

And then I got my Masterplan…Some of my cousins are visiting us from India this month end…and its still on the planning mode…uhmm…I devised my plan…I called my mom, “Mom, Aunt called from India…They all got the visa..they are flying in on 19th night….”…My mom was still half asleep, I suppose…was naturally excited…She was like .. “Wow, so quick…only 19 more days….great…I will call her now…” hehe!!! I counted one down…I repeated the same lines with my dad and husband who were already in their office…I evoked the excitement in all of them of this good news of our relatives arrival date…lol!!!

After 5 mts, I got a call from my mom…and she was trying hard not to laugh and then blasting me saying… “Youuuu….you waste my money on an ISD call…I am not going to pay for that…u will pay…” etc etc….haha!!! Then I called my dad…and got some what same response…lol!!! My husband acted a bit better saying, he didn’t get time to call India…I laughed and said… “It’s ok dear…I understood that u too celebrated ur birthday just now…Happy April Fools Day…”

That has made my day…I was expecting after effects from one of them soon…and was extremely cautious in picking up every single calls…and then I got a call from the Pizza Hut…it was a true call..it seems somebody ordered for a Pizza on my name and mobile number…I said No, I didn’t order anything..maybe it’s a prank… They said fine and the call was off….Little did I know that, that was just the beginning….

Soon my office reception had a visitor…A KFC delivery boy with a bucket of family meal…I didn’t even care to go out and told the receptionist that its not my order…and soon I started getting calls from almost all the receptionist and almost 10-12 calls from the KFC office…every time I said NO ITS NOT MY ORDER….

Finally almost after 45 mts, I blasted them off and then threatened them, that IF I GET ONE MORE CALL FROM U PEOPLE, I WILL COMPLAIN TO THE POLICE….IF SOMEBODY ORDERED UNDER MY NAME, U TRACK THE CALL AND CATCH THE CULPRIT INSTEAD OF CALLING ME AND WASTING MY TIME AND UR TIME….

Soon after this, I got a call from my mom…and I could hear her laughing…

Mom: (with giggles and surpressed laughs) Haha, heard you are eating KFC….
Me : Oh, ok..so it was u…then don’t worry..police is on the way…I have lodged a complaint and they r tracking the number…
Mom: What...Oh no…it was not me..it is ur friend…he just called me and told that he played such a prank…Your husband is also in it…
Me: Ok, then no probs…u can let them know that soon they will get call from the police…
Mom: (shocked) Hey, no…let me call them and do smthing…

After this, I got a sudden gush of calls from my friend and husband pleading to me to collect the KFC and they promised they will pay me in the evening after work…But I was helpless, I had already send the delivery boy back a million times…

But guess what, the delivery boy came back..and I went and met him..He was all miserable by facial expression…He called his manager and gave the phone to me…(the same person to whom I have threatened to call the police…)…hahah!!! He apologized for the trouble and was miserably telling me how difficult it has become for them… just bcoz of this prank, they r getting delayed for other orders…I felt bad too…I finally decided to buy the delivery in…and even gave a tip to the driver…Poor Man…he would surely get complaints from other Customers for delaying their orders…

And for me, I was angry for this silly prank, where not me but the KFC people was harassed…Just then I am getting my next call and I heard my husband pleading… “The Pizza Hut will also come…pls take that also…I will pay u in the evening…”… He knew, if he had held on to the phone for long, I would have given him a good set of lecture…

Anyways, soon the Pizza also was delivered…and guess what…the whole floor of my office got a share of the Unexpected KFC and Pizza treat…they were all thanking my husband and my friend for the treat…lol!!!

Just now my mom called me and said that it seems she has warned my husband and friend to wear a bullet proof dress if they are going to come in front of me…hahaah!!!

Now you guys tell me…at the end of the whole story…out of the KFC Delivery boy, KFC Manager, My Mom, My Friend, My Husband and Me…

“Who was the Ultimate Fool of the Day???”
