Her /Mumbai's POV

Few months back...Mumbai.

I had came to know that badi mom and mom had send my photo to some boy's family for marriage proposal. And mom gave the photo!!. I was livid, I was sooooo angry , I actually hulk-ed out on her that why would she do something like that knowing about my and amar's relationship.

"but you and amar had a fight right?😞... or you got patched up?...you didn't told me anything and didi(my badi mom) is always behind my back. Do you even know, how many proposals have I already rejected for you."

"But mom me and amar..."

"I am talking about since the time, when you two weren't dating... earlier even Girija used to help by making some excuse... but since that last fight of yours's with amar, she also doesn't help me about this. she was saying what's wrong in meeting boys."

"yeah right, this is good...she herself never got married, and what's problem in meeting boys for me😠!" I shouted angrily.

" don't yell rubbish in your anger. You know this very well, that you wont talk such things about your aunt..."

Mom was right I would never say such thing about her. Girija aunt was my maternal aunt, mouse(here nickname) she was unmarried/single whatever you say. she never wanted to get married. My maternal grandpa too supported my aunt, but my grandmom was dead set against it😂. That's another case, that, even she had to meet a lot of boys with marriage proposal. 

But mouse rejected all the proposals, and was successful in not getting married to anyone. Earlier she used to stay with my maternal grandparents but, after their deaths, now she lives alone. But she keeps visiting us and she is a favorite of us kids. Want to get away from mom's rants - mouse, you want to get any of your stubborn demands fulfilled -mouse, you wanna talk about your crush or bf-mouse. Basically she was a friend, guide, counselor and as per my mom a leader to us cousins😁. i completely adore the fact that she avoided getting into this whirlpool of relations and all and chose to become an independent woman. She is my role model. She gets all the credit for my rebellious and bold behavior. but I don't know why my idol isn't supporting me now.😢

"and as it is your confusion is cleared or not??... you don't even tell if you want to marry amar... tell everyone about him at home. Bring amar to meet all the family members, make your dad meet him...but no...you don't want to tell also, not hide also...then what exactly do you want to do??"

"mom you know me and amar have fought again...and about getting married...what's the rush...am I getting too old?😡" I say irritated.

"you aren't getting old, but you aren't getting any younger also, and we need to search for a good boy na (I glare at her)...and only if your guy isn't fixed. Only then(she says holding her hands up).... its not like I will send you away with any roadside romeo.😂"

"Tch....but mom... amar will be pissed off right now...and I am also very angry at him... all this at this time..."

"baby... all this will happen only when you clear out whether or not you want to continue your relationship with amar...and what's this every now and then fights of you and amar...you are sure about this relation na?..means I am not saying its wrong...but everything is good na??"
