Emptying the contents, he stuffed the packet into his pocket; this trick should work, he thought wickedly and called the helper.
'Complimentary juices for the opposite team as a goodwill gesture,' he drawled, 'remember, the transparent jug for them and the opaque for our team, understood?'
The helper nodded, as he was prompted again, 'the transparent for them, opaque for ours.'
Mid-game one by one the players rushed to the loo, confusing all, affecting their performance, and eventually, the opponents won.
Frustrated, he called the helper, 'What did you do?'
'You said, transparent for ours, and the opaque for them.'
Ah well. It's only a game
ReplyDeleteDear Nandini,
ReplyDeleteOops. Good one.
Shalom,

I like how the helper confused the instructions like mixing up one's lefts with one's rights.
ReplyDeleteWell, that's what you get for trying to be sneaky 😃
ReplyDeleteOh God! A good up..
ReplyDeleteVery sneaky. Nice one. - Justjoyfulness
ReplyDeleteGood try, a shame it backfired!
ReplyDeleteJust desserts I'd say.
ReplyDeleteYou reap what you sow.
ReplyDeleteGood help is hard to find!
ReplyDeleteHm, I think the helper has a mischievous streak! What people will do to win a game.
ReplyDeleteThat's what happens when you give someone a job you should do yourself! Karma! Nicely done, Nandini!
