Sakina (Enters home; a stack of envelopes in her hand) : Gulp. A letter from the Secretary of State's Office. Oh no. Oh no. Is it a ticket ? A suspension? A court date?An accident??Khuda na khastha???
Salman (running downstairs in PJs, rubbing eyes) Huh?
Sakina: OPEN this mail in front of me. Have you been speeding?
Salman: I don't think so. I did just renew my license though.
Sakina: I already felt the envelope. There's nothing hard in it.
Salman (tearing the envelope open): It's a letter. From the Secretary of State's office.
Sakina: Yes? Yes? What is it? Why can't you just drive at a normal speed???
Salman: They are thanking me. I checked the yes box for 'organ donor' at the license renewal.
Sakina (sinking into nearest armchair). A thank you note? Seriously? In an official envelope? Jessie REALLY needs to consider sending a Hallmark card instead.

I have such moments as well - they usually turn out to be pension letters.
Excellent!
