"Nooo!!! Shit!" I groan in frustration as I shut my laptop a little too furiously. I couldn't make it to my dream job again!

This is the third time I got rejected by The Lilac Global- a multinational event management company based in Paris. Ever heard of Paris fashion Week or extraordinarily scintillating events that take place globally?

Yes- You guessed it right, The Lilac Global is one of the companies that manages these humongous events.

I applied for being an intern in The Operational Management team at their Paris head branch. I know I am aiming high and I may be lacking in many aspects but Am I that pathetic?

Well, right now I maybe but Who wouldn't be?
Rejection! Straight three times!

But I'm not the one to give up so easily. I mean I did not work my ass off for nothing.

I did possibly everything in my reach - studied all day and night, disconnected myself from the world, and limited my family and friend's time as well. I was a hermit for the whole 2 years of my life!

But right now, the problem isn't that I got rejected, I'm kinda used to it by now (it's my 3rd time from the same source, damn it!).

Instead, the problem is that I need to find a well-paid job or else my parents are gonna get me married. Yeah, I'm at that age where Indians think that a girl should get married - 24!

By the way, I am Saachi Deshmukh, an MBA postgraduate, basically a typical Maharashtrian girl living in Mumbai.

I had one dream in my life, that is to be at The Lilac Global and to visit Paris. Of course, being an intern at The Lilac global has always been a major part of my dream, but being in Paris is my life dream itself. Paris! Oh, how I wish I could go there, But as you can see I'm struggling a lot despite giving my best.

And now coming to my recent and most urgent concern, that is, to find a job because until and unless I find one, I won't be able to breathe as there is a sword of marriage hanging right above my head.

It's not like I don't want to get married...it's just that I have dreams and I need full freedom for that and marriage is a big responsibility at this age. So, I just don't want to get married yet.

But whenever I tell my parents this, especially my Mumma, she wouldn't understand. Typically typical Indian mother!

If my Mumma gets to know that I've been rejected again, this time, without a doubt she'll wed me off to the first well-settled boy she finds.

Last time, when my Mumma found a match for me, and obviously when I retaliated, Priya Didi( Didi=big sister) saved my ass and negotiated with my mom to let me be. Before that, in the same scenario, Dad was there to my rescue.

But this time, I'm doomed -for I'll be married to someone I don't love and possibly have never met in my life. Just Indian things, right?

A piece of loud music drags me back from my monologue as I see my mobile ringing on the other side of the table.

Who must be calling at such pathetic times?

I lean further on my table and grab the Mobile phone to check the caller-

Archana Ma'am

Ah! I completely forgot about the internship offer she gave me a week ago. I pick up the call and greet her
