Tring- Tring, the phone rang.
She willed it to stop ringing.
Unmindful of her turmoil, it continued to disrupt her inner peace as well as the silence of the room.
Thoughts of an impending harassment over a crank call were clouding her mind, when she heard him say, “No, I don’t want a credit card.”

Fortunately, I don’t get any credit card selling/upgrading calls (any longer). BTW, why should the phone ring only in ‘Tring tring’ still? It can also ring like ‘Jadoo hai nashaa hai…’, no? 🙂

Kikikikiki to the above comment 😛
Nice take on a prompt.. 😀 😀 😀
Rajesh is very creative not only in writing posts on his blog but also while commenting! 😀
Thks, Dee 🙂
After a few rings, it should go to voice mail. Right?
The Tring Tring phones here have still not upgraded themselves to send the calls to a voice mail 😉 😛
ah! tell me about them..these credit card wallahs! when im just about sinking my head into the pillow for a nap, tring tring goes the phone and shooting up goes my temper(sheesh! what kind of sentence is that!)
I know… very irritating! 😐
That was an anti climax but matter of fact.
Yeah, I chose the route of an anti-climax… providing a seemingly trivial solution to a significant conflict. 😛
This actually made me ‘guffaw’…seriously!
That was the idea!! 😀
haha 😀
🙂
Those credit card calls are so irritating na?!!

Haha, for a second I thought yet again sad part is gonna come. But laughed at the end. 🙂 These spam calls, God 😀
Tried anti-climax this time 😛
WOW!

I always get calls for credit cards, water filter maintainence, investment cos.Now I handle them very well. Loved your F-55. I haven’t written F-55.
You must definitely try it out! 🙂
the end is quite an unexpected one and yet when you imagine our lives with pesky calls, who would it have been really!
True, we always wonder who might be that regular crank caller and in some homes, these calls might be the reason for discord in the family, much to the oblivion of the caller.
lol!!! I pick the phone listen the word “I am calling from XYZ Bank” and promptly say, “Not interested than you” and disconnect the call 😀
😀
Yes,these cranky calls are a great nuisance.
True!
I get sometimes irritated by these calls. Nicely written for the prompt 🙂
Thks Saurabh. 🙂
Those are worse than crank calls! 😀

Nice micro-fiction Shilpa 🙂 These are the times you start missing the calm of the pre-cellphone times 😛
True that, Reshma!
