so far. so good

SO far, SO GooD...

An answer that honestly say, its okay. It is also a soft reply which tells a thing or a matter is mediocre.

But it is also an honest answer to a deceitful joke.

Yesterday, i called a friend and the reply was a sound that tells that the number is no longer in used. I called our common friend asking wether he changed his number why it was so. She told me that he just didnt know how to activate the call options of his new phone.

I borrowed a phone from my officemate and dialed his number. It connected. I waited till he accepted the call. "Sir, survey lang po. Kumusta na po ang bago ninyong cellphone?"

"What?", came the reply.

"This is a just a survey sir, pina-follow-up ko lang po hows the service of your new phone, this is a company's survey checking the satisfaction of our customer on our new model."

"So far, so good." came a reply from an obviously disturbed individual.

And, the spell was broken when I laughed out loud, I can no longer contain the tickling I felt.

I can hear a laughing but revengeful breath from the other side saying, "May araw ka rin".
