Make Me Yours

Vinay Kashyap

                          Vinay' pov

I checked the whatsapp message my mumma had just sent me, it's not even a message but contact number named Meera. Another girl I have to meet for marriage fixation. I have met at least five girls in these six months. Uggh i let out a sigh in frustration. I know my parents are not wrong, they want me to settle down. But the problem is I don't know how to talk to girls, yeah embarassing is it.

In these twenty eight years of my life I never had a single interaction with a female other than family and yes these dates arranged by my mother. Since childhood I had been a shy and introvert kid. My bubbly side is only for my family and friends. And about friends i only had two friends - ekansh he was my classmate since sixth standard and his younger cousin Siddharth he was one year junior to us in school.

I did not have any friends in college also and in office, huuh I talk to other colleagues but no one is a friend. In college i liked one girl but I had not enough courage to confess. She was the most beautiful girl in our college and I was just an normal middle class boy. Or i just realised later that it was just an mere attraction.

In my family, I have my mother, father and a younger brother Anuj. I am a certified mumma's boy. I love my dad and Anuj too . My family is my everything. My first dream was to buy my own house for my family and I have already accomplished that three years back now I want to buy a car for my parents. I am a graphic designer by profession and i love my work. I cleaned my desk and kept my things properly, packed my bag and went to nearest bus stand. By God's grace, bus came on time and took that bus. While I was standing in the corner of bus , I decided to check her what'sapp I'd. She had a dp of lord radha krishna. Suddenly the bus stop, and accidentally I clicked on the video call option.

"Are shit" , I immediately cut the call. My heart started beating fastly. What she will think of me? a pervert or something. But i guess she is offline right now. When I got down from the bus I waited near the food stalls, there are so many food stalls and sitting arrangement for people. I saw Ekansh and Siddharth coming on the bike together.

"Or bhai kya haal ?" "How are you brother?" Siddharth asked tapping my shoulders. They both sat near me.
"Just tired brother" i replied and they both nodded.
I told them about the whatsapp incident of the girl named Meera. Then we ordered soft drinks for us.
"How fast are you changing girls? One after one" Ekansh teased me.
"You know it's just meetings and that's because of my mata shree (mom)." I replied sipping the chilled sprite.
"What about the last one you met "

"She wanted us to live separately after marriage so it's not a big no for me" I tell
"Oh she wanted to separate you from your family?" Sid said.
"Ahh I can't say about her intentions but you never know ,she might have some family trauma she might have seen her mother struggling in her father's family. I don't blame her, cause I have seen my mother struggling and crying because of that so I can understand but I can give surity my mother will not be an evil mother in law" I said.
" I don't know about these things sorry!" Sid said sadly and ekansh patted his back

I am a Man but still I can understand that girl's pain because I have seen how my father's family have treated my mother. My father is the youngest in his family and also he used to earn less than the other uncles. They treated my mother like a servant, she used to work more than everyone, even when she was pregnant with Anuj. Now I am a grown up man I can understand things. I don't understand how grandmother loved my father unconditionally but does not have a ounce of love and kindness for my mother.

At last my father had leave that toxic family and for that my mother was blamed by everyone that she broke their happy family.
Ugg just why I am dwelling in the past it's gone. After meeting my friends I went to home only to greeted by my mother smiley face.

"Aagya Mera beta" "My son came" she cupped my cheeks. I smiled and nodded.
After that we four had our dinner together. I went to my room. Holy shit! She messaged me.

"Who?"
What should I reply I am groom . No I am not groom what should I type she must be waiting for my reply. At last i messaged
"Actually my mother gave me your number for meeting for marriage"

Her reply came "oh, you must be vinay, my mama (uncle) told me about you."

"Yes I am vinay and extremely sorry for the call , it happened mistakenly"

"Oh it's okay if it was mistake"

I didn't texted anything after that but she messaged.

"I think we should meet for knowing each other if you are okay with it"

"Yes sure"

"So if you are free Tomorrow we can meet" she asked

"Ok , just send me the address and we can meet after office hours" i replied

"As you say, good night "

"Good night"
