So there I was, cribbing to whoever had the patience to listen to me about how much I missed playing secret Santa. Our hectic schedules and long travel did not allow these luxuries. Imagine my surprise when I come to my desk to find this.
Yep, there is this lovely bouquet of orchids sitting on my desk along with a sweet note! :D I couldn't believe my eyes! Who could have sent me such beautiful (and expensive) flowers? I had four main suspects - my sister A, my partner in crime M, my seedha saadha friend R (yes, the lucky guy who got the felt toys) and the monkey C. C is in the US and went straight out of my list. R did not have motive and M did not have opportunity, since she was in a meeting with me. A doesn't have access to our office. So whodunit??
The curious me tossed and turned through the night but did not get any more clues. The next day, work pushed the flowers out of my mind. Post lunch, M sat down to have a quick skype chat with her hubby and I went to meet A. When I came to my cube, hidden below my desk was this.
My favorite Red Velvet Cake!!! And look, there was a secret message on it. But to add to my woes, that message was smudged :( R was not at work that day and M seemed to be skyping. A was with me! So who kept the cake? I had serious doubts on M and gave her a taste of my interrogation skills :P She came out clean and said she had nothing to do with the cake. Then an idea struck us. We called 'Warm Oven' who had delivered the cake. Initially, it looked like my luck had run out but then the voice on the other side of the phone said a name.
Guess who, guess who?
Bingo! It's my sis!! Lol! Had to be her right? She has always been so indulgent towards me. Nothing but the best for her chotu. She had enlisted Agents M & R to carry out her plans, which they did excellently. But they couldn't outwit me :P I think A was a bit cross at me for playing Sherlock, however I managed to mollify her :) I have always got my way with her. She loves me a lot and wants to fulfill every wish of mine. My week had not been going well and she wanted to cheer me up. Am I not the luckiest person ever? :)
Wait, this is not the end. There were more gifts to follow. My sis had planned a whole week of surprises for me :D Unfortunately I couldn't get pics of everything and I did not want to delay this post anymore. I got a wonder woman bag, cinderella shoes, couple of books and a very cute panda which looks just like me :P
Psst: In case you were wondering, the message on the cake said "Ho ho ho..". Would have been an awesome hint, no? :D
