Our daughter would be coming in some time please you all  do take some snacks." Is she.. she always so late ?"I had been hearing their conversation since past ten minutes after hearing this I thought I should finally make an appearance. " Sorry Mr.Mittal ! and nope I am not always so late " Hello Mrs.Mittal and hey!" I greeted the guy and his parents well the guy is not so badlooking but still nope then I let my parents converse and answered only when asked too. Well thats what a docile and obedient daughter or wife do well I am not that and if one more time the guy's mother will ask about my job timmings and work load I'll kick her out . "I think these two should talk with each other and see if they understand each other well ". said my mother well these was the moment I was waiting for.

I took him to our balcony to talk. Let's finish it this would be the last time anyways. "So What's your name? " really this is what he wants to ask well even I don't know his so what he is at my house not the otherway round " Mira and yours?" ."Nirav , so Mira would do you like to do in your passtime any hobby?" No not just a hobby well I have many hobbies." " so what's your favourite hobby?"  "Sex, I like having sex very much and what about you?" his face was really worth capturing it was like his eyes were going to pop out" I gave myself a pat keep going Mira." Hmm no I don't know and are you not  a virgin?" "No I am not why? Who is a virgin nowadays?" I really didn't want to go there I am a virgin but the guy is himself lowering his standards by judging me."I won't marry you . You are a characterless woman . God your parents should be ashamed of you." "Really, good. Than I guess you should leave and please if this is your mentality about a woman and education limits than please you better give up the thought of marrying. Get out now." I stayed at the balcony and waited for the chaos in living room to die. " What happened mira? what did you do? they went so suddenly."

 "No mom and please don't find guys for me from now on I want to tell you both and bhai something important . Which I will tell you at dinner please call me when he comes home. Saying that I went to my room which I share with my brother to take a nap thinking how will they react when I will tell them about my transfer.

I felt something wet and gooey on my nose and cheek I just turned and heard a flashing sound what the hell and I saw my brother taking my photos.I lift my hand to remove hair from my face when I saw white toothpaste on my fingers, "What the hell Priyank!!" I yelled loudly I am just waiting for my mom to come in knocking on my door ."Mira what happened? "asked my mom through the door. "Mom please take Priyank's mobile away I didn't got mine till tenth grade and he is till in seventh and because of it his nuisance is increasing daily ". I said. " How come me making a moustache of colgate on your face is related to my cell phone huh? shit!" at this I winked at him and mouthed 'karma' baby! " You kids I don't know what I am going to do about you both come now dinner is ready." I went down while my brother followed me murmmurming about how I fooled him again. Its easy to fool a fool darling hahaha!!" I answered laughing.

" So Mira you wanted to tell us something?" my dad asked ."Well yes I wanted to tell that I got a promotion and i hav-" " Really!" my mom squealed." that's good news Miru we are so proud of you I''l go now and prepare kheer for you you should have told me first I would have kept it prepared sweetheart." "Wait mom that's not it.  Let me complete I got a promotion but that will be at Canada the main branch." At this the whole table grew silent my father kept his spoon down and for the first time my brother kept his phone down , " so can I ask Miru why and did you accept it?" asked my father." Yes Dad I did I was waiting for this since long and--" " What you were waiting to go away from us miru , miru we love you don't you ?" ohh no  don't cry mom i thought " no mom that's not the reason mom I want to explore myself I want to see different things,  please mom try to understand dad please tell her" I told my dad pleadingly. " No don't tell your dad to tell me anything you would be alone over there who will cook you 'kheer' and 'ghajar ka halwa' tell me?" Ohh Mom I'll manage please Mom I'll be happy don't you want me to be happy and live my life to the fullest please Mom my happiness is in this and not marriage . I got up taking my plate along to my room well I love food I wont leave my food unattended due to such quarrels.

"Miru" I was woken up with gentle carressing on my cheek and my Mom's sweet voice, rather than the blaring noise of my alarm or my brother's nuisance "Yes mom I opened my eyes to see my mom and dad sitting besides me and brother in his school uniform standing next to them. "Wake up Miru!" " Yes mom Miru we have come to a decision" she said and brought some thing from behind her. Which was lord Ganesha's small Idol when a saw it I knew their decision "Really mom!" I squealed. "Yes Miru we love you and we only want your happiness but promise me you will take care of yourself and will aways keep Lord Ganesha with you?"  "Yes mom I promise ." " Now go and get ready we have lots of packing and when are you leaving? I have to make arrangements for you to stay at Mrs Shah. Look she stays there only with her grandchild we will feel contended that you are there safe with someone we and she will also have some company It has been two years since her son and his wife died in that plane crash ok ? this is the deal" I have already talked to her." my dad said sternly. "Yes boss I saluted." I said stomping my left foot, to which my mom laughed and left with my father 

Following behind " Way to go sis, Canada! I am happy for you!" I turned to see my brother who was just wiping his tears "Come priyank won't you give me a hug? and don't cry." He came running and hugged me tightly. " I'll miss you dee,." said my brother. "I'll miss you too, baby". "Don't call me that." argued my brother." Priyank promise me you'll take care of mom and dad and will skype me every day regarding any updates ". " Yes dee, I promise" he said ."Well I have good news for you I said in a singsong voice which caused him to wipe his tears and frown at me "And What would that be? he asked. "Well my laptop will be yours so..." ."No ways!" he yelled." Yes ways come now I have weeks left to go till then we can still play pranks Mathur uncle can't we ? " I winked at him.
