C is for Confused #AtoZChallenge @AprilA2Z
My theme for this year’s Blogging from A to Z April Challenge is Feelings and Emotions from A to Z in 55 Words. Today, C is for Confused.
“What’s the plan?”, I asked.
He pondered for a moment and said, “I’d love to eat and play”, with a mischievous glint.
“Play?”, I asked sceptically.
“Yes, we’d start with the first base and finally hit a home run”, he said with all seriousness.
I nodded foolishly. I’ll have to look up the meaning later.
Join me in enjoying blogs from fellow A to Zers… Corinne Rodrigues, Cat Graham, Claudia H. Blanton, Cheryl Wright today! Do share some blog love with them too!

April 3, 2015 12:21 am|
I am laughing out loud at your comment, Swathi! 😀
April 3, 2015 12:25 am|
Oops!! *Hides her face* 😳
April 3, 2015 12:08 am|
Haha 😀 So she got confused hmmn 😛
April 3, 2015 12:22 am|
Yes, so it seems 😛
April 3, 2015 12:10 am|
Confused….though I hope they enjoy 🙂
April 3, 2015 12:23 am|

April 3, 2015 12:29 am|
You too, Nibha!! Ok, but my purpose is solved 😀
April 3, 2015 12:31 am|
Lovely. Short and sweet:)
April 3, 2015 8:51 pm|
🙂
April 3, 2015 12:51 am|
anything to do with baseball leaves me confused – cricket too! Love this Shilpa thank you 🙂
April 3, 2015 8:56 pm|
I know a bit about baseball but cricket is like a religion in India, so on a good wicket there! Thanks Susan 🙂
April 3, 2015 1:09 am|
I also need to look for the meaning 🙂 Nice
April 3, 2015 8:57 pm|
Et tu, Sundari! Not expected from you, the writer of amazing romance books!! 🙂
April 3, 2015 11:13 pm|
It’s an American expression originating from baseball I think. I am more familiar with British expressions 😎
April 3, 2015 2:43 am|
Haha…i guess there would be some people confused at that. He’s pretty confident about that home run 😉
April 3, 2015 9:01 pm|
Well, if readers are also confused as the girl in the story, I guess the mission confusion is achieved! 😉 Ya, he is 😀
April 3, 2015 5:47 am|
Great! So sweet.
April 3, 2015 9:01 pm|
Thks Ma’am! 🙂
April 3, 2015 8:30 am|
Hehehe…she probably got the shock of her life later 😉
April 3, 2015 9:01 pm|
I know 😉
April 3, 2015 8:45 am|
You’ve confused us too! Loved it! Shall stop by for more!:)
April 3, 2015 9:02 pm|
LOL, Mayuri 😀 It’s simple! Just look for the slang meaning 😉
April 3, 2015 8:47 am|
Hahaha .. probably ‘He’ should look up the meaning!
April 3, 2015 9:03 pm|
Why do you say so, Lata? I think, he knows it! 😀
April 3, 2015 8:51 am|
Looking at her confused state, I doubt the home run 😛 Nicely done, Shilpa 😉
*Shantala @ ShanayaTales*
April 3, 2015 9:03 pm|
I like the way you think, Shantala 😀
April 3, 2015 9:16 am|
Dejavu!! Been there, felt that!! Short and sweet 😛
April 3, 2015 9:06 pm|
Aha! That’s interesting! 🙂
April 3, 2015 10:04 am|
Ha ha! Fun! We all do that..Nod first and check out the meaning later. Fun one Shilpa 🙂
April 3, 2015 9:08 pm|
Oh yeah! We do that all the time. Thankfully we have smartphones in our hand, so that search/check can be instant! Glad you enjoyed it, Parul 🙂
April 3, 2015 10:12 am|
Oops I hope he was talking about baseball. Not very gentleman-ly to take advantage of the girl’s confusion 😛
April 3, 2015 9:10 pm|
Of course, he was talking about baseball, Prasanna. What did you think? LOL 😀 Kidding!! You are on the right track, sweetie 😉
April 3, 2015 10:56 am|
Lol 😛
And now she’ll be shocked when she realizes what he meant 😉
April 3, 2015 9:10 pm|
Hmm… high probability of that to happen 🙂
April 3, 2015 11:31 am|
Oh poor girl ! I hope she withstood the shock of the event 😀
Great narration and excellent way to portray the emotion.
April 3, 2015 9:12 pm|
Hope so 😀
I am liking the empathy towards the girl from most of us 🙂
April 3, 2015 12:28 pm|
Uhmm!
I had to read all the comments to clear out my confusion! And in this confused state, I guess, I realized (naughty Grin).
April 3, 2015 9:13 pm|
Glad that you got it, Ajay 🙂
April 3, 2015 12:29 pm|
Men never get the hint, do they? And to top it they know how to confuse a woman! cute!!
April 3, 2015 3:00 pm|
hahahah ! Shubhangi !!
April 3, 2015 9:13 pm|
If only the woman was not so ignorant 😀
April 3, 2015 12:41 pm|
Ha, ha. Is she less confused now, I wonder. 😉
April 3, 2015 9:15 pm|
It’s more than 20 hours since this happened (the post got live, I mean 😀 ), so I am sure all her doubts must have been cleared by now 😉
April 3, 2015 1:14 pm|
Cheeky man. Let’s hope she twigged to it quickly enough when he started at first base. Shilpa you are the queen of drabble.
April 3, 2015 9:17 pm|
Hope so, Suzy! But you think, they should not hit the home run? 😉
Thks for the kind words, Suzy 🙂
April 3, 2015 1:17 pm|
Naughty confusion 🙂 The games we play!!!
April 3, 2015 9:20 pm|
😀
April 3, 2015 2:28 pm|
LOL! I was confused too.. 😀 But that wicked guy!
April 3, 2015 9:23 pm|
Wicked, he is 😀
April 3, 2015 2:48 pm|
Let’s hope he walked the bases instead of running them 😉

Ok, now who will explain this to me. ❓
April 3, 2015 9:26 pm|
Google the God 😀
April 3, 2015 6:35 pm|
Hahaha! I see a grihshobha “hai main sharam se laal huyi” moment afterwards! 😛
April 3, 2015 9:28 pm|
Hahaha, Kadambari! That expression is so apt 😀 and reading it after such a looooong time! Does this column still appears in Grihshobha?
April 4, 2015 1:42 pm|
😀 I have no idea! Haven’t laid eyes on this magazine for almost 2 decades!
April 3, 2015 7:03 pm|
🙂 LOL! Now will she regret not looking that up now rather than later! ;P
Nice one!

April 3, 2015 7:28 pm|

April 3, 2015 9:30 pm|
Yea, he was very candid about it, actually!
April 3, 2015 7:37 pm|
Oh dear, I can sympathise!
April 3, 2015 9:31 pm|
😀 😀
April 3, 2015 7:48 pm|
Well, for sure he wasn’t talking about baseball! 😉
April 3, 2015 9:31 pm|
LOL 😀 you think so too!?! 😀
April 3, 2015 7:51 pm|
I think looking it up later might be after the horse has bolted 😉

April 3, 2015 9:06 pm|
Cool. Having lived in USA for a long time, I know the meaning. Did you guys reach the home base or not?

Aha! That’s nice and you mean ‘those’ guys!?! 😀
April 3, 2015 9:47 pm|

April 7, 2015 12:06 am|
LOL. That was a good one 😉
April 7, 2015 11:44 am|
Now I am confused…. ❓
April 12, 2015 2:59 pm|
Hmm…wonder if she got hold of the meaning in time!!!!
