Idiot's Insight 6

eSmileeeee Pleaseeeee...

Mrs. I dialled her husaband’s mobile number from opposite a huge Bill board  in South Mumbai and Mr. I greeted her with “Hi Sweetie”,  like he did when his childhood sweeteheart of his 44 year romance called him.

“Why is this boy giving such a huge smile” asked Mrs. I, coming straight to the point.

“Which boy, honey? Are there some boys smiling at you and you’re feeling threatened by the smile?” inquired Mr. I,worried.

“No, no boys, only this handsome boy in this hoarding. I think it’s that Congress leader or something. I can see their symbol underneath the hoarding” replied Mrs. I.

Mr. I was relieved and said, “Oh you mean some boy is smiling  on the hoarding ? It must be the handsome youthful leader of the Congress, Rahul Gandhi”

“Yeah, that boy is Rahul Gandhi. But why is he giving such a huge and fake smile on this hoarding, as if he’s selling toothpaste or something” explained Mrs. I.

Mr. I now understood his wife’s confusion. He patiently told her, “Baby, Rahul Gandhi wishes to project himself as the leader of the new youthful India and therefore he has to be smiling, not serious”

Mrs. I was not convinced. She said, “ But he’s smiling as if he’s looking directly at me and kind of smiling as if he’s looking down on me. I’m not feeling good about this smile.”

Mr. I thought that he would lighten up his wife’s mood with a witty comment. “ Sugar, don’t feel bad. He’s not smiling at you or making you feel bad. He’s smiling because he just saw that his main rival Mr. Narendra Modi, had just voted. Possibly that’s why he is smiling” said Mr. I feeling great about his wit and wry sense of humour.

“ Don’t be an idiot. If that be the case then he’s smiling as if he thinks that Mr.Narendra Modi has just voted for him and he’s already won the election and is the Prime Minister of the country.” concluded Mrs. I as she hung up the phone.
