One month overdue!

I promise, I didn`t write this.

Mr. Rajan comes home one night, and his wife throws her arms around his neck and says: “I have great news: I’m a month overdue. I think we’re going to have a baby! The doctor gave me a test today, but until we find out for sure, we can’t tell anybody.”
The next day, Mrs. Rajan receives a telephone call from Chennai Electricity Board (CEB) because the electricity bill has not been paid.

“Am I speaking to Mrs. Rajan?”

“Yes…… speaking”

CEB guy, “You’re a month overdue, you know!”

“How do YOU know?” stammers the young woman.

“Well, ma’am, it’s in our files!” says the AEC guy .

“What are you saying? It’s in your files …… How?”

“Yes…………. We have a system of finding out who’s overdue.”

“God!…. this is too much……””Madam, I am sorry…I am following orders…I have to inform you are overdue.”

“I know that… let me talk to my husband about this tonight…he will speak to your company tomorrow.”

That night, she tells her husband about the visit, and he, mad as a bull, rushes to CEB office the next day morning.

“What’s going on? You have it on file that my wife is a month overdue? What business is that of yours?” the husband shouts.

“Just calm down,” says the lady at the reception at CEB, “it’s nothing serious. All you have to do is pay us.”
“Pay you? And if I refuse?”

“Well, in that case, sir, we’d have no option but to cut yours off!”

Yeah, it looks cool with “the Rajan’s” there but i’ve read it somewhere else too. But, not a big deal, even if u were the one who started it! 😉

The enigma continues.
