This is the latest occurring in the series of 'lovely relatives' rant posts that I mean to keep posting here.
Last day the most darling among my relatives, someone that the whole family loves to hate, gives me a call on my mobile. I definitely do a double take when I see the caller id announce the name (as we are not in talking terms these days cos of....well only this person knows why.) Anyways, I answer the phone and get a curt "aa entha" (roughly pronounced as "what?") for a greeting. I am obviously surprised and hence manage a polite "entha uncle" with a smile in my voice and all that (fortunately, though the same bloodline and all, my parents have taught me basic manners). To which he replies "Why did you call?". Now, since I obviously didn't do anything as stupid as that, I told him I did not call, to which the reply was....none. He just cut the line. Just like that.
Well I did check my phone and didn't have any outgoing to his number. But whether there was any or not, the rudeness really is beyond my understanding.
Repeat lesson - Age has got nothing to do with maturity. Grow Up Dude, while you still have some time left!
