Chapter 1

Three glasses of water, one fresh lime soda and a few exchange of texts later I picked up white mermaid shaped salt container first and sprinkled some in the empty glass and tried to mix in whatever little water was left after I had gulped the entire glass in one go.

Actually it's been half an hour, I have been waiting for my girlfriend turned fiancée.

Oh having her as a girlfriend was much convenient!

But since the day I proposed to her she's been a liability, add on to my all other set of problems.

Only good thing that happened from this engagement was my dad who was on top of the world finally smiling genuinely after six months especially because Genelia's father is the biggest investor in the business of medical. They have their own private pharmaceutical lab in which they conduct experiments and discover and create new medicines.

They also have full backing by the government because lots of medicines that were only imported earlier are now exported bringing revenue to the country.

So "you hooked the right fish" my dad's proud words when I announced my engagement.

Well why did I propose her?

The question remains alien even to me.

Maybe ,maybe I had started believing in fairytales.

Bull shit!

But can you blame me?

It happens when you have the most loving couple in your friend circle.

Eight years of their marriage and they are still lovey dovey with each other and sometimes it is so much that it sucks.

Right then in search of same happily ever after, I thought Genelia was the chosen one for me

And boy how wrong was I?

Her loud shrilling shriek SAAAAAAAAndip" as she calls my name.

I tried to explain it's spelled as San and deep Sandeep and it doesn't look like an endearment.

But once a girlfriend turns fianceé, one has to accept that whatever she says or does is absolutely right and there is no room for argument.

Forgive my judgments though!

Sometimes I feel that she has missed having a pet dog that her parents were strictly against so she satisfies herself referring me as her pet calling me saaaaaaaaannnn. Gosh sometimes I believe my ears would bleed to death hearing my own name.

But like a very sweet boyfriend slash fiancé I reply with 'Hi! Babe' stretching forward for the stupid air kisses that she gives whenever she meets me.

Yes kissing is a big no no because it might ruin her mac mocha lipstick that she'd so liberally applied on her lips.

So incase I have to kiss her I have to wait till the party or date is over so that she doesn't have to compromise with her looks.

Really can someone be that naïve?

Oh my god! Here it goes again I am bickering about my own fianceé

'Bad boy Sandy' I scold myself and concentrate on another mermaid shaped white container of pepper this time and sprinkle some into the same glass.

Looking inside the glass I notice black and white dots mingling into the water but since salt has already dissolved into water, it wasn't visible. So I added more salt.
