Girl runaway from home to escape from marriage only to be betrothed to a stranger.
They fall in love but their ego and families come in their way. Can they overcome the hurdles and become one?
I got ready and sat on sofa waiting for Sita. I should have asked her room number. What if she runs away.
I opened the door hearing door knock.
"Looks like you are expecting someone, sorry to disappoint you" Joseph teased
"I met her last night" I said
"I know"
Of course he knows everything about me. I don't hide anything from him
"But..." he was suppressing smile
"What?" I asked
"You both were kissing as if there is no tomorrow" he said
"Mom told? Now no one would believe. It's a mistake" I said
"Mistake? Kissing stranger by mistake?" He raised his eyebrows
"I tried to explain the situation, she started judging me that I will be with call girls... when I said, I have never been with any girl, she assumed I'm a gay and started thinking of ways to help me...
This girl is crazy, her brain thinks with lightening speed in wrong way and her mouth has no filters..."
He laughed
"So you kissed her to prove you are not a gay?" He asked
"I don't know why I did..."
I heard door knock? It's Sita. Thank god! She came.

"He is my cousin and soulmate Joseph" I introduced
"Hi"
"Let's go, Nithya went with aunty and uncle. We will go in your car" Joseph said
"Tell me about yourself" Joseph asked Sita
"I was born and brought up in US, graduated from MIT in computer science. As soon as I graduated, dad fixed my marriage with Santhosh. He is my childhood friend, great guy but come on I'm just 22. Who would get married this early.
I tried to convince, dad is stubborn, asked me to go on date with Santhosh. I got angry, I came here. I love traveling, thought it's time to say hello to my parents motherland.
I came here two days back. My parents are from Kerala..."
She doesn't give pause...
"You graduated from MIT, that's great... it's easy to convince... Ben graduated from MIT..." Joseph said
"Your name is Ben?" She asked
"Benjamin Kurien" I said
"Sita, you are from states but you look like traditional Indian" Joseph said
