Hey Frndzz,
Hope you all r doing great and having absolute Fun.
If not much then try reading this mail and my first Marriage encounter. I am sharing this amazing feeling wid all of u.
Yes the arrival of so called ladke waale from our “samaaj”, at my place. Btw fyi, they are sitting downstairs nd am writing ths to all of u.
I was irritated as well as nervous since the time I got to knw bout ths guy engineer frm sm REC and wrkng in Dubai.. (yeah i can read that expression) ..is cmng to see me along with his family, I had never seen this guy before not even in photo. And stating the obvious, it was a typical mummy’s act whr all the sections/clauses were full of emotional attyachaar to coax one to utter nuthng less than a YES. And I did as required, by agreeing to her.
I was anyways nervous, on the top of it my 2-3 kaminey frnds including my younger brother were teasing me. At the elevnth hour...I was agitated, annoyed, frustrated, angry, bitchy... and tried to meet all ends to convince mom to plss plss postpone this. But mom is mom, The Invincible... then I finally decided that I have to steal the show.
I quickly entered into the character and got ready for this encounter. One nice chudidaar and tidy hair plates something similar to the heroines of 80’s anil kapoor ki movies …gharonda, sansaar, jamaai raja types...
Mom was at the top of the world and bro was rolling with laughter, fortunately dad was out of home, saved me frm further embarrassment. But guess by nw I was having fun. I went down and sat on the corner-most sofa with nazare neechie nd all that crap…nd thr was a complete silence of 3 minutes.” Beta kahaan kaam karti ho” uncle broke the silence. The moment I looked up I had seen this baldish dark, specky guys….with a pug nose and a face cut like “gundha huaa roti ka aata” I coud see his toungue falling down to his feets while he was starring me with his wanton eyes.
I spoke to uncle for 5-6 minutes about his work after retirement, decided not to give d guy any bhaav.. and then ran away before my mom cud stop me. My bro was laughing and at the same time was pitting the guy's family for whats gonna happen nxt. As by nw even mom understood that she made a mistake.
To keep my promise and to accompany mom I went thr again and sat at the same place. by nw I had quickly changed in my regular ultra low waist jeans, xstra small T’s, Bold belt and open hair (d unkempt look). Mom asked “tumhe email-id exchange karna hai?” I quickly said “nahi mom wo to milne se pehle ki baat thi” (gave the guy my final answer).
After another 4 mins of silence... Aunty(guys mom) said…”ab hum chalte hain”……. my dad arrived…. and I came here to share this unusual experience with u all.
By nw they r gone…m lill sad for them but can’t help it. Guess m not meant for this…nd it was required to protect myself frm mom’s next step towards my better future. ;P
Btw thanks for ur patience to read this mail…I had great time writing this.
Love!
Swati
