******************************************************** WHEN I WAS DEEPLY TOUCHED....... ******************************************************* When I get up, the first thing that I do after morning ablutions, is to have a seidel of scalding hot coffee with crisp chilly potato chips. I chillax in the lawn enjoying coffee and verdure. Being single, I have employed a pulchritudinous mademoiselle as a maid who comes exactly at 6:30 AM daily to brew my coffee and do other household chores. One fine evening, some of my chums were expected to jaunt to my residence to celebrate my birthday.My maid was engrossed in cooking scrumptious dishes while I was preparing milk shake.By the time they vamoosed it was late in the night.The milkman had not turned up that evening, that meant no coffee the next morning.I became quite upset thinking about no coffee in the morning As I was helping the maid in clearing up the mess after the guests quit, I was continuously fulminating at the milkman for not coming while the maid was ogling at me with a smile.When the mess was cleared, she cooed before departing," Mr Srivasvtava, I have stealthily put some milk for your morning coffee in the fridge as I knew you would finish off the entire milk" Needless to say I was deeply touched by her consideration for me. My first impulsion was to hug her tightly in gratitude but bloody social barriers manacled and shackled me to do so.However I promised to gift her a set of ear rings !! .......Devendra Srivastava
