Acha par mujhe yeh kyun nahi bola!" I whine softly while speaking on the phone. My brother sighs again "tum ne bhi toh nahi bola woh 'boyfriend ke bare mai!" My brother mocks but it's more to divert the topic. He thinks he can get away with it
[Translation - Yeah but why didn't you tell me about it?
[You also didn't say about your 'boyfriend']"Bhai!" I yell at his failed attempt to get off the hook. Yesterday, when my cousin dropped the bomb of his marriage, I flooded my brother's call log, messages and even emails and he finally called back this morning
[Translation - Brother!]I have been trying to make him spill the truth he is hiding behind that cold facade. For the first time in my life, he is hiding something from me. It's not that common but we do share most things because our understanding is better than our parents
Yet, he is behaving like he has never done before. He says he wants to marry Mira and they have started planning for their wedding in Rajasthan too. During our whole conversation not even once did he mention that he loves her, he just repeated that she is a good partner
"Thik hai, main toh nahi bolo. Lekin seriously Jasmine? You claim that he is not your boyfriend but he came into your room naked and kissed you?" He accuses, with a tone of wariness After hearing everything from our mother and Sonia, his brain had a short circuit
My mother was in distress after that insane phenomenon
"Bhai! Aap Ko malum hai woh sach nahi hai!" I say defensively. Clenching my phone in my hand tightly as I pace around my room. The frown on my face is evidence of my stress
[Translation - Brother! You know it's not the truth]With the angle of my laptop and Lucas's position, my mother and sister assumed that he was kissing me. The aag mai ghee is that the mic was off and they didn't listen to our conversation
[Idiom- adding fuel to the fire]This news spread the fire that Jasmine got a foreigner as her boyfriend
This is a huge mess because not just I got a boyfriend but that too an Australian one
It's not like my parents would mind or anything but I never had a boyfriend. We had a strict rule to date only after 18 and as soon as I turned 18 I flew to Australia for studies so I never had time.
My whole family thinks that I have a boyfriend and my parents sent an ultimatum that I have to bring him to the wedding
Why?
Why is it me?
That too with him?
I couldn't even explain to my parents why a young, white, half-naked boy was in my room. That too pinning me and kissing me, wait- that kissing part is just an illusion because I would never in my whole life let that fox guy kiss me!
Ew on the infinity level
"Acha toh kya hai case? He came to you because you mixed glitter in your shampoo and he was angry? That's all? Is that the reason why he would come half-naked to you and join you?" My brother asks with scepticism
[Translation - okay then what's the case?]
