I was rolling on my bed thinking deeply about my future, and the email I had been receiving wasn't positive. I was thinking about getting help from my Best friend Aria. She has been with me since we were in kindergarten. I got up and changed and informed Mum I was going to her house but all of a sudden she stood in front of me blocking my way.
"Mum'll be back before 6 PM, Okay?" I wasn't expecting her to block my way because she was always okay with me visiting Aria's house, but why she is blocking me now?
"We have guests coming today so if you stay it would be great" She was waiting for my answer and I hoped she wanted me to say yes. But I'm not going to say yes.
"Mum, please, it's almost two weeks now. Since I finished College. It's boring, I promise I'll be back on or before 6 PM".
She let a sigh and nodded in acceptance to go to Aria's house. I took my car and drove slowly and reached her place. I got on Uber to Aria's house. The reason I take Uber is that I got into a big accident and I had Amaxophobia for months, and it was really hard to overcome. I haven't got the guts to drive the car.
I called her as I walked towards her house, just to make sure she was home. She didn't answer my phone, but when I was about to ring the doorbell, she opened the door and welcomed me in. I gave her a tight hug.
"You're killing me by giving me a hug," Aria said and laughed
"I want to laugh as much as possible, but I'm in no state to laugh," I said in a low tone.
"What happened?"
"I want to work, I'm scared that I might get married any sooner. I did an MBA to start my own company, but now I don't think I will be starting my own business" As I was saying without my knowledge, tears started running down my cheeks. She wiped my eyes.
"I'll ask Dad if there are any vacancies in his company. Is it okay for you?"
"Thank you. I don't think I will start my own company, in this life." I said and she chuckled.
"Why don't you start your company after marriage?"
"Really? After marriage? As if the family is going to accept the idea of me working, many families don't support their Daughter-in-law starting the business just because they don't want their daughter-in-law to be independent." I sighed.
"What if you get married? What will happen? What will you do?" she threw the question.
"I'll run away from my home," said while shedding tears
"Seriously? Will you leave your home?" She questioned me without believing it.
"Hahaha, I always wanted you to leave the place, You may be the Cinderella to them, but you are always a Rapunzel to me, stuck in that big house of yours." I laughed at this Metaphor.
"When are you going to stop comparing me to Rapunzel?" she and her princess story.
She started laughing. We both laughed, started watching movies, and had great fun. I checked the time now and then noticed it was almost 5 p.m. It's almost time to leave, I took my sling bag and phone to leave Aria House. I bid bye and sent my CV through email and started my way back home. As I entered I could see a lot of people in our Living Room, I couldn't guess what were they talking about or discussing, but it must have been funny Because they were laughing.
Once I Entered, everyone's eyes were on me and I stood frozen and had a weird smile. My mother came running towards me, dragged me to my room, and asked me to change clothes that were on the bed. I had a bath and I slowly came out of the bathroom and when I was about to notice the dress on the bed, Mum was in my room as well.
When she noticed me, she asked me to wear the jewels with the saree. She asked me to come down once I was done. I was wondering why she gave me this dress because I don't wear a saree when I'm at home. When I was about to ask she said "I want you down in five minutes" That's all I heard and she left.

I wore that beautiful saree and jewels, went down, and they asked me to sit. I looked at my mum, and she nodded in acceptance. I sat on a single-seat sofa and all their eyes were fixed on me. I have no idea why I am wearing all these and sitting here, but if I'm not wrong, my mom is setting me up with marriage. I glanced at everyone in the living area. There was a guy in his suit.
Wait? What? There was a guy here all the time when I was up there in my room? If I'm not wrong, I think he must be the guy who came here to check me out, but I won't accept this marriage. Why is this even happening to me? Why, don't have a normal life like everyone, people go to work and then get married. Why can't I do the same? Does my mother think that I would fall in love? Even if so, why can't I? She had a love marriage, why can't I? I'm not going to get married and I won't!
The reason I guessed it must be a set for a marriage, is because I have experienced it from the beginning of my college days. Does my Dad know about this arrangement? Where is my uncle, and where is Ryan? Why is my aunt alone here? Is she okay, with me getting married to him, even though she knows about my dream? Shall I make a fuss in front of everyone? So I won't get married? My evil mind laughed and I chuckled.
"Her laugh is cute, isn't it, Pete?" said a middle-aged woman. I was brought back to reality.
If I'm not wrong she must be the mother of the guy and his name seems to be 'Pete' maybe Peter. I looked, or we can say I stared at the guy and he was having a cool look. Dude, I'm not yours and I won't be. Stop looking at me.
"Why don't the kids talk alone and understand themselves?" said one of my aunts, Even though she isn't my favourite, she was right. If we talk, he would understand that I'm not interested in this marriage.
