"be quick psyco" he impatiently patted feet on ground, anika who stood there in confusion on what to take. Finally after fifteen minutes she selected few pairs of earrings, asked a man in counter to pack.

"650 beta" said the man who is in his early 50's. Shivika nodded and forwarded money to at a time. Seeing other also passing money they glared each other "I will pay!"

"No need I will pay!"

"I said right I will pay. Don't make this an issue anika"

"No... I will pay". A woman whom they supposed to be man's wife said "arey beti, let him pay na. Husbands need to pay for wife's purchases". Shivika were shock listening to this, the man rolled his eyes muttering "typical wives"

"No aunty... We are no married!"  anika tried clearing their confusion but the man spoke "oh no my boy... Let the girl pay na. After marriage anyway you don't have any choice. 3/4 of your  salary will be taken by your wife for her purchasing"

Anika frowned listening to this while shivaay chuckled. "ouch" the man rubbed his arm where his wife had pinched listening to his comment.

"seems like aunty shop more"  shivaay teased getting a glare from anika. "seems like?. God she is shopaholic. I can't bear her purchasing so I left my job and kept a jewellery shop" uncle explained in overdramatic way making anika, his wife roll their eyes and shivaay chuckle.

"it's okay uncle. Take my money.I could afford her expenses now and later too"  shivaay gave money anika looked at him at the mention of later and the couple admired . "aww... You are lucky my child" said aunty to anika making her smile.

"you must be rich!" commented uncle taking money from shivaay and getting chance from his drawer, he heard shivaay reply , "I am a businessman"

"That's why you are paying... Or else you could have understood the situation of Indian husbands who are suffering with shopaholic wives"   uncle looked at his wife who was lost in her thoughts "now don't regret that my profession is not overseas business"

"No.. No... I am thinking why didn't I marry businessman instead of you"  aunty reply making his jaw touch ground, shivika chuckle.

"khush raho" aunty blessed shivika keeping her hand on their heads. She nudged her husband also to bless the couple, he smiled at me them and said "always manage to have a wallet full of money when you go to shopping anytime with her".

Shivika exited the shop with a smile, while aunty stomped her husband feet when shivika left shop.
