I do not think I have enemies- not that I know of at least. People who dislike me, maybe, but enemies, I hardly think so. So it was just mind-boggling for me when I got a few prank calls for the past few days-from the same one person. I don't know if the caller knows I have caller ID as I can see her number very clearly. She would call me up and kept quite & wait for 5 seconds then hung-up. And she always call me at about 12 - 2 pm. The last time I had a prank call was when I was in secondary school where you would have a stupid stranger calling you up, claiming they got my number from someone and attempt to do a' can-I-get-to-know-you' drill- which is oh so lame. I tried calling back a few times initialy thinking that maybe someone was genuinely trying to reach me. But I think she immediately swtiched off her HP and left me aghast-so rude. So today, since my boss have a private number, I called the stupid number back. The conversation goes something like this;
ring tone
prankster:(lady- totally unexpected as she picked up the call after just 2 rings)
me: *deafening* silence
prankster: breathes in
me:*deafening* silence (now you know how it feels)
prankster: (in a shivery soft voice)..oh my god.....(immediately hung-up)
me: smile contentedly.
I really don't know what to make of it. My husband insisted that its probably a very jealous lesbian secret admirer/lover..(duh!!)
I am still trying to recall who I might have offended in the past few years, that as a result, is coming back to haunt me now. As a happy freelancer, I am devoid of back-stabbing jealous work colleagues. I do not think I have vicious relatives that would go to that extent. Anyway...a little something to add spice to my daily grind. Mind bogglling but fascinating. Hey I have to always see the good side of things...think happy thoughts...
