"Some people can be so inconsiderate and manner-less" scowled Myra.
"How dare Nanshai ask me how much I earn? How and why does it matter to her? Does she pay my bills? Does she take care of my family?" Myra's voice started to quiver and tears started to form in her eyes
"Just because she got married and divorced to some rich investment banker and got a fat alimony cheque and is at home does not mean everyone has the luxury to do that, some people have to work their a$$ off to support their families" Myra continued to scowl
Zeeshan slowly rose up from his seat and walked up to Myra and put his arms around her from behind and said "I and our kids are very proud of my sweetheart"
A smile spread across Myra's lips.
Zeeshan released Myra from his hug and said "Besides, the monthly wage of a Chief financial officer and the boss of Nanshai's husband..ex-husband..will obviously pique her curiosity no? Not everyone knows that the CFO has a huge home loan on her and gets worked up so easily at home" with that Zeeshan chuckled and left the room

DeleteThanks for dropping buy Messy Mi Mi :-)
it's often quoted that money is the root of all evil, but I believe that is a paraphrase or variation on 'desire is the root of all suffering' which really describes what is all too often the basis of unhappiness among us.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you Clark.
