Jehovah's Witness Came to our Door and ..

Time 7.45 PM on a Thursday Night. It was a chilly evening. We closed our doors a bit earlier than usual.

Knock Knock Knock...

Mommy was not happy " Who is that?" She thought it was some insurance agent or 'i-scream kids'. Two young ladies, well dressed started pitching in a well educated accent. "In this time of hardships we are going around, spreading the word of God".

Daddy interrupted "Not at this time, please." They walked away. Then he wondered "Could they be Jehovah's Witness". They heard him. Mommy asked Dad " What is Jehovah Witness". The lady in red dress walked back to our door. " Do you know about Jehovah's Witness?".

"Kind off" He replied.

"From Where ?" the lady was holding firm to our door grille.

"It is OK, I can't talk to you now. Later you will be talking to us for hours. May be another time." he tried to avoid them. The ladies walked away.

I think my dad felt bad about turning God's people away, so he told mommy about how well mannered and educated the Jehovah's witness folks are, sharing his experience with some of them in UK. Mommy was impressed and believe it or not, they ran after them to aplologize and to get their telephone number.

The moral of the story is they abandoned me again in the name of God.
