I woke up by the call of Sophia and Aisha. They asked 'how was the paper'? I said, fine it was. They excitingly said, we are going to be there in engagement. I puzzled whose engagement? They blow out of the water; you are never update what's going on in your home only. I said like as usual and will you both blurt out whose engagement? They said in a displeased tone Mamu's. I asked who Mamu? They said like I have thousand of Mamu's. Your own brother. I exclaimed you mean my brother. They reassured me saying yup! You're brother. I sounded sad how I don't know about it? They said better ask Nani and hung the phone.

I complainingly, why you all didn't said to me? Everyone was confused about what they didn't tell me about? I uttered 'about my own elder brother's engagement'. Dad smilingly answered, we don't want to distract your attention from your studies, Simple! I said it's unfair. Dad said laughingly 'everything is fair when it's about exams'. I too joined him in laughing.

I asked mom, when is the engagement by the way? She alarmingly said,"it's after a week and you have to help us in cleaning the house especially with the fans and your time will start from tomorrow. We are giving you a leave to rest." I yawned and said thank you for the leave, your majesty and from tomorrow onwards I be on my duty and I promise you won't get a single complaint with my work. She along with my sister simpered watching me and said what a buffoon you are, Surie. I screamed thank you and anything for you, mom, I said from the kitchen while making tea for myself.

So, now it's time for some 'clean up' which do not instinct in me but still I did it after all it's my brother's engagement. I along with my mom and sister cleaned the house. I know they did the major part and I cleaned the fans and pretended cleaning. I said "I did it" to my brother while he was teasing me, I know what you did, Surie.

Before the engagement day, my sister came back to especially attend the engagement. I was damn elated to see Sophia and Aisha right in front of my eyes. We screamed I missed you and hugged each other.

Later the following evening, we were gabbling like usual. Harsh scanned out the whole computer but didn't found his favorite game GTA-Vice City. He got disappointed. I stood up and said Harsh to pretend in real like we are playing GTA-Vice City. I told him, I am holding a gun in my hand firing on you. Aisha commanded Harsh to fire on me. I pretended like I am dying. Aisha hurriedly asked Harsh to type 'ASPIRINE'. He pretended typing and I got charged up, like the guy used to in the game. Sophia laughed on us and asked you too started? I smirked I missed it a lot that's why.

We were waiting for 'bride-to-be's' family to knock the door but it seems like they are late. Mom keeps alarming us to get everything ready. I wore a sea green dress which is dark pink over the neck and the border, a pink color studs in my both ears and wrist watch in my left hand and nothing more like always. Sophia, Meera and Aisha were looking killingly beautiful. I told them teasingly, after seeing you all lots of guys are going to die tonight. We did lots of clicking together with as many poses as we could.

The wait has finally ended and they reached. The 'bride-to-be' entered the house wearing long anarkali frock which was pink and yellow color, with lots of bangles in both of her hands as a typical Indian bride she was wearing lots of gold means everywhere. Jewelry which she was wearing had gold plus some other artificial jewelries also, she was accompanied by her family members and friends. Soon after they made themselves comfortable. I started serving them with the chilled water, mango juice, roasted cashew nuts, almonds, raisins and walnuts too. I kept on serving them with the snacks like onion bhajiyas, spring rolls, bread rolls, papads, some farsans, cream and without cream biscuits keeping in the mind about the children's, adults and the elderly peoples and ended serving them with the tea.
