Blue Watery Eyes! #10

“Hello Ma’am, but it’s afternoon.” Jason said with a frown.

“Afternoon for me, Morning for you…” and she started her witch’s laughing.

“Just ignore her.” Ash whispered in Jason’s ear and finally they reached their destination.

Just in front, two stalls after Miss Malise’s Meat Shop, was “Gargabell’s Grocery Store” They both took a breath of relief after they dropped their bags from their back to the ground. As soon as they entered the store saying in unison “Good Morning, Uncle Gargabell”

A bald head emerged from the cashier’s table and slowly the raised eyebrows showed themselves, and finally the mouth, just below the crooked nose said -“Well, I would have wished you good ‘afternoon’ but knowing that your afternoon won’t be good anymore, I won’t do it. Both of you out and wear those costumes!”

“But dear sir, I don’t think it was our job. Dean and Luke are supposed to wear the costumes today.” Jason said, trying to lower his voice but unfortunately it didn’t come out low.

“It’s Great Mr. Jason that at least you know your jobs. Better remember the timings also next time. Due to Dean and Luke came at perfect 10’o clock, and you special boys came around 4 hours late…” Uncle Gargabell suddenly stopped and continued with her wide eyes, “Oh my special boys, Congratulations to you for you have broken the record of coming late. Sorry, Elle, these guys broke your record of 3 and a half hour.” He said turning his neck toward a girl, sweeping the floor. “So, I suppose both of you know your special prize”

“Great, now stand with that funny costume and sing that (he said something that made Ash elbow him) song in front of the whole market!” Jason said gritting his teeth and went inside the store to change costume.

After few minutes, they both (though no one could identify them) could be found standing on either side of the grocery store’s door. They both were wearing a teddy bear’s costume that had a wooden board around its neck which read “Expect more and Pay less!”

“You know what, Ash” Jason said from the teddy bear’s mouth which appeared as the only space for the air to get in. “Whenever I read this tagline ‘Expect more and Pay less!’ I feel it’s absolutely true. We expect more salary and he pays less.” Jason giggled on his own joke. But Ash was silent, for he was thinking that all was his fault, he neglected his responsibility which made his friend stand in the hot afternoon outside, and that also in that heavy costume.

“I am sorry, Jason. I mean, if I could have come at home soon, we wouldn’t have been late!” Ash replied.

“Couldn’t you think of any other heavier word than ‘sorry’? Well, no need. Actually, even after this ‘punishment’ I am happy that we made a new record of coming late. It’s a great reason for celebration. Don’t you think?” Jason said rather cheerfully. Ash smiled at him, and it appeared as if the two teddy bears were talking to themselves.

“Should I give you the lyrics of the song, in case you forgot it? I want Publicity! Now!” Uncle Gargabell said knocking at the window next to the cashier’s table, even though he was speaking through the glass but his voice was audible.

“Very Very Welcome to Gargabell,

Explore the things, that we sell,

Buy the food that is chosen well,

Feel the freshness as you smell,

Anything else that I need to tell?”

They both sang together to make the song louder in the market’s crowd rush, but with time, their voice began to get slower and slower until a shaky reminder came from the window. “I want Publicity, Now!”

      2. Ok Di, will get the meaning, leave it aside…
        You know Graham bell who invented the telephone, his wife’s name was Hello…
        So when he made the first call he said ‘hello’ and from then on… well you get the point!
        Hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahaha😂😂😂😂

      3. Hahahahaha…. this is just a hoax but it’s not true. His wife’s name was not
        “hello” and infact, the first call he made to was to his assistant. The word “Hello” actually originated from the word “Hola”. 🙂 🙂

  2. “Whenever I read this tagline ‘Expect more and Pay less!’ I feel it’s absolutely true. We expect more salary and he pays less.” Simply marvelous and true lines and that old man sounds such a pompous mad chap, he just wants you both to work and keep on singing not bothered whether you guys are tired or not. So beautiful as always Harsh. Keep on writing and am waiting for the next episode, it is too good, I get totally enthralled into another space and time, into another world of make believe. So happy for you getting nominated for Happy Day and keep on making Happy and you too always remain Happy. Happy Day to you to dear sweet friend.

      3. For sure will definitely tell you. Harsh could you read once again cause there is just a grammatical error which you will find, go thru once again your story. When they both go to meet that man just see I found only a small error.

      4. Due to Dean and Luke came at perfect 10’o clock, and you special boys came around 4 hours late…” Uncle Gargabell suddenly stopped and continued with her wide eyes. Harsh I found the beginning a little grammatical mistake, has it to be Due or something other word and also it is Uncle Gargabell so it has to be him and not her with eyes open. Just check once more.

    1. Well, if you have any query, you may ask them frankly…
      Now design a mail with:
      1. Title
      2. Content (make sure it’s more than or near 1500 so that you earn more points.)
      3. Author’s Bio (make it interesting for hiring purposes)
      4. Share all your social links.
      5. Contact number (optional)
      6. A pic of yours to put in front of authors bio
      7. An image for your. Article too.
      Anything else you can ask them, they are really good.
      😊
      I should have informed all my readers about this competition, how did you get to know about this…. well, whoever referred to you, maybe Kavita Di or me (anyhow) tell them that you got a reference from them, it will make that referrer earn extra points..

  4. Beautifully written especially that song. I loved it simply as I do the every series of this story. You perfectly do justice with the characters and story. You are amazing little movielover 💕. Well done dear!

  5. You know what…
    Writing stories which are realistic is an easy one because what we see, we write but creating a different world, placing your characters in them and then writing a story is something which is just way too good. It’s actually magical to see you do so.
    Rememeber, JK Rowling also did this. I haven’t read any Harry Potter book but she created a whole different world in her mind and it’s just pure genius. That’s why I honor about such persons.
    You are right on track buddy.

    1. Hey, thank you so much for this compliment!
      I like to write stories set up in different worlds, my worlds because they are mine and I can do whatever I want.
      And yes, you should try those books, they are gems, truly!
      Thanks a lot!
