231. I gave a ring to my girlfriend

Last friday, my new girl friend asked me to take her out for a date.But I never knew that she was actually gonna rip my purse. I went to her place to pick her up. The moment she entered my car, she told"Hey Chriz!, Why don't you buy me a Ring?".I gave a shocked look.

But the sweet seducing retort from her side was too much for me to handle and the next moment we entered a jewellery shop.A man in his mid fifties waljed up to me and said,"Can I help you sir?"... "I'm looking for a special ring for my girlfriend," I said.



He looked through the stock and took out an outstanding ring priced at Rs.25,000/-.My heart bounced up with a shock. But I did not want her to know that I am going through a mental trauma. So I said,"I don't think you understand-I want something very unique,"

At that, our now very excited jeweler went and fetched our special stock from the safe. "Here's one stunning ring at Rs.1,40,000."Her eyes sparkled...

"Why does she have to make me a pauper?", I thought to myself.I did not have a single paisa more than Rs. 5000 with me.But I could not lose the battle in front of my girl and hence I told the jeweller that I would take it. She clenched my arm in adoration and the air between us intensified.

"How are you paying?" asked our jeweler."I'll pay by check; but of course the bank will want to make sure that everything is in order, so I'll write a check and you can phone the bank tomorrow(Saturday), and then I'll fetch the ring on Monday.Me and my girlfriend left the shop.She rested on my shoulder while I drove back for a romantic evening.

*****************************************************
Monday morning, I woke up because of my ringing mobile phone.
Me: Hello! Who is this?
Jeweller: I am calling #### Jewellers
Me: What can I do for you?
Jeweller:You lied, there's no money in that account.
Me:I know, sorry, but can you imagine what a FANTASTIC weekend I had?
Jeweller:#@@@$..

Bang went the phone

Note:

I changed my mobile phone number for two obvious reasons
1) The jeweller
2) My girlfriend (She is my ex-girl now)
