It about a girl who have dreams, aspirations and feelings
filled with emotions. Let’s call her D. She is an independent modern girl with career
aspirations and like any Indian household she has the pressure to get married.
Her family pushing her to get married. She like an obedient Indian girl accepts
but has some expectations from her partner so that the marriage will be a love
relationship rather than just a formality.
She had got multiple marriage proposals and has talked to
few guys but she was looking something different to match her frequency. One
day, she got a profile of a guy; he was ok type but got decent profile. Her
parents were looking ahead for a meet. Things went forward and one day she got
a call from that guy. She was bit reluctant to talk much to stranger but he tried
his best to make her comfortable.
So, after that they talked few times on WhatsApp etc. and it
was ok and she agreed to meet the guy. Guy took one month to come over and then
the D day arrived in that small town in a small restro.
She was sitting with relatives there waiting for the guy and
the wait was killing her as that guy was nowhere seen and everyone was waiting.
She thought the guy was not at all interested and making people wait
intentional. She was feeling awkward as time was passing.
Finally the guy came but he was sitting backwards and was
not able to see the guy. Everyway was giving him the pleasantries and she was
able to hear his voice but not able to see him. She tried to do some sneak peak
but all in vain. It was like waiting for that perfect moment but things not
going as planned. After some time, they made guy sit opposite to her to talk.
Guy was dressed just ok and was smiling. She was bit nervous even to see him or
take her eyes up. Next her family members were sitting.
Guy tried to strike a talk, asked her for drinks and snacks
but she was reluctant in everything and just said hello and some courtesy pleasantries.
Guy was feeling like girl is not interested and girl was feeling the opposite.
It was really an awkward situation.
Guy asked families to give them some private place as gal was
not feeling comfortable at all. It was like when you make a small school girl
sit in front a girl and she is all shy and all.
They tried to talk about general stuff but she was not at
all making eye contact. Guy was like, hey girl, what’s wrong. We are in touch
for so long and he flied down her to meet her from 2000km and she was not at
all talking. It was all pissing him badly. Guy asked his mom to take her outside
to strike a talk in alone, one last time. Few things were running in his mind
but still, it was the moment he want to take chance because that instant he
felt this is THE GIRL whom he can actually share rest of his life comfortably.
They both went out and things got pleasant. Girl started
being chirpy and was talking bit more. Guy got comfortable. Even though some
mongering guys were looking at them form a distance but they dint care and went
on their business. Talking different things but not the thing what they came
for. :D
After few minutes, they went inside and everyone started
asking the opinion. Although, this is a weird thing sin Indian marriage where
people expect to choose their life partners within 20-25 minutes talk but as
they were talking for last few days, it was bit more comfortable for them.
Girl said yes and so do the guy and everyone was happy and
went on to congrats each other. Girl was still bit nervous and thinking if she
has taken the correct decision or not. Will this guy be able to deliver what
her aspirations are? Will he support her in whatever she will do? She was bit
worried if she will got some govt job for which she has worked so hard, will
that or his family will support or she has to sacrifice her life for him.
All these things running in her mind, but still she took the
risk and said yes. She is a very brave girl who always expects her family to be
happy if she has to sacrifice few of the things. Even when the guy asked, if
she said yes in pressure or is she ok to go ahead, she said she has decided only
after thinking and will go ahead.
She is like a flower who wants to give its smell to everyone
but will itself next to thrones.
PS: Girls are the best thing created by the God. They are there
for so many things. They deserve so much respect and love but the society don’t
care much about them even when they are the creator of the society.
