When I got back to my flat, my maid was watching to TV without any sounds.
Me “I think you would be better turn volume up TV, wouldn’t you?”
Maid “TV has a problem.”
Me “I think you are more strange than TV.”
Maid “It is sound problem!”
Perhaps Indian does not know about remote controller that is great modern gadget, as I doubt. So I passed her a remote controller.
Me “Push that button for volume up.”
Maid “No, it does not work.”
I could not think so, therefore I tried to push it by myself.
Me “OH! It is giving to turn volume off!”
Maid “Yes, Remote controller does not accept our commands.”
Unbelievable! I tried to check some buttons on TV itself directly for a hour.
Incredible! Fantastic! I found Lightness setting button gives to volume up!
Therefore, I asked my maid to make claim against lease company, but she does not seem to willing to do so, saying "it is better than no sounds as it is Indian TV. "
...It was 11PM.
Maid "I will go to bed."
Me "Have a good dream."
As she went to dream, I could feel my own private time finally.I am sipping brandy glass with genteel action, humming “Cheers good night!”
“The Gold Rush - Charlie Chaplin” was being broadcasted on TV which is finally solved with its sound problem.
Sound does not matter…
