I have always wanted to write drabbles, because it has always intrigued me on how to say a story in so few words. This is my attempt at a drabble, though, it has exceeded way more than a drabble word limit.

This story is a no brainer, no logic, no morals with absolutely crazy couple.

"I can't believe Dadi is forcing me to go see this village girl for marriage!" Abhishek says furiously as he puffed on his cigarette.

"Relax Abhishek, you go and see her." Purab tells him.

"What am I even going to talk to her about?" Abhishek asks him. "I can't even think of a single thing to talk to her about!"

Abhishek furiously paces in his room while Purab silently watched him.

"How is she going to adjust to a metropolitan city? All Dadi cares about is a promise she made to her old friend!"

"But your Dad did say that it will be your decision whether you want to marry her or not, right?" Purab asks confused.

"What if she says yes and Dadi emotionally blackmails me?" Abhishek asks him panic.

"Don't fall prey to her blackmailing." Purab replies shrugging.

"If I didn't fall for her blackmailing then I wouldn't be going to that village today!" Abhishek reminds him in exasperation.

"Isn't that your fault then? Be strong, man."

"Shut up!" Abhishek says taking a drag.

"Relax, Abhishek. just make her say no."

"HOW?"

"You know, how these village girls are? Yeh paap hai... woh paap hai..."

Abhishek frowns hearing that. "What?"

"You smoke in front of her..."

"What if she tells my Dad and Dadi?" Abhishek asks shocked. "They don't know I smoke."

"That is second issue... first we have to make her say no... so, smoke... tell her you party... that you drink every day."

"I drink only socially!"

"Is she going to investigate?" Purab asks him exasperated. "Even if she says yes after that... tell her, you can't be with one woman all your life, that you sleep around."

"I'm a virgin!" Abhishek reminds him.

"Not for lack of trying." Purab mutters.

"What the heck? It is out of choice!" Abhishek replies offended.

"You never even had a girlfriend."

"I never found anyone interesting!"

"Yeah right." Purab rolls his eyes.

Abhishek looks away though as he smoked, he thought giving Purab's idea a go.

*********

"This is our Pragya."

Abhishek hears the happy announcement and irately sighs.

"Awww she is so beautiful." Dadi says.

That caught his attention and he curiously looks up and sees a girl in a salwar walking towards them with a tray in hand. He looks at her face and his heart skipped a beat, she was beautiful.
