Part One
Scoop of Life
8:17 AM
Saket, New Delhi
Radhika Tripathi reached for her bedside clock..... the incessant buzz threatened to drill holes in her head, she turned the other way hoping to drown out the sound......... but it continued ringing, she peered at the clock, it showed 8:17 AM
She jumped out of bed screaming. The maid dropped the jharoo and ran from her room.
Her Mom peeked in, her glasses almost slipping off her nose
Sudha: IF you need a ride to work Radhika you have 15 minutes to be exact.
Soft and firm that voice rattled Radhika more than anything
Radhika: Isnt it Saturday?
Sudha: It WAS, a day ago, and will be after 5 days..........
Radhika screamed again
Ritwik: Will you shut up, you moron? (yells)
Sudha: Will you two knock it off
Ritwik: I AM JET LAGGED, ask this animal to quieten down! (barks)
Radhika goes back to bed
Sudha: 15 minutes
Ritwik: Throw her out of this house Mom!
Radhika: You WISH! (sulking)
Sudha: I am thinking abt it
Wow! loved the title "Scoop of Life". Something must be close to real life. So Radhika & Ritwik are siblings. Radh seems forgot the time, wondering if something happened with her over the weekend and she slept like a log and no idea about the day & time, or she is sleepyhead and forgot everything when she woke up from her slumber. Lets see how the story unfolds further.
