Alright folks, buckle up for a joyride of miscommunications and plot twists that would put Hollywood to shame! It all starts with a simple directive: A boss says to his secretary, ‘We are travelling abroad for the week, so make arrangements.’

Seems straightforward enough, right? Well, think again. The secretary, being the efficient worker she is, immediately calls her husband. She says, ‘My boss and I will be travelling abroad for some reasons.’

The husband, seizing the opportunity like a kid in a candy store, calls his secret lover. ‘Honey,’ he says, ‘my wife is travelling for the weekend, so come to my house, and we can be together.’ Oh, the cheek!

The plot thickens as the secret lover—clearly someone of higher education—calls her lesson pupil. ‘I will not be at home this week, so don’t come for your lesson,’ she informs the little lad.

As if trained in the dark arts of spreading gossip, the pupil immediately calls his grandpa. ‘Grandpa, my lesson teacher is not around, so I’ll spend the weekend with you.’

Now, Grandpa here isn’t one to miss out on family time. Gives his secretary a ring and states, ‘My grandson is coming to spend the weekend with me, so we are not travelling again.’

And what does the loyal secretary do? She informs her husband, ‘My boss said his grandson is coming over, so our trip is cancelled.’

Hold on to your hats, people, because the husband then calls his secret lover to break the disappointing news. ‘We cannot spend the week together; my wife has cancelled her trip.’

In what feels like déjà vu, the secret lover contacts the little boy. ‘Plans have changed; our classes will continue as usual this week,’ she says.

The boy, clearly just as busy, calls up Grandpa to deliver the somewhat tragic news. ‘Grandpa! I’m sorry, but we won’t be able to spend the week together. My teacher called and said that I have to attend classes.’

Finally, Grandpa, perhaps a bit dizzy from the circus of calls, rings his secretary. ‘Change of plans! My grandson is no longer coming. So we are travelling after all. Make arrangements.’

The moral of the story? The ripple effect of plans can rock the boat, or in this case, send everyone packing—a story where one man’s decision sets off a chain reaction like dominos falling in a line. Isn’t life just one grand comedy of errors?
