The Letter Love

Chapter 5

She stayed there for a week where they had only few moments of privacy to talk to each other without being disturbed but they had ample of time to observe each other and know each other a little better. After all something IS better than nothing.

She had returned to her home and now she was more than just determined to get him to write letters to her. She decided to write to him the very day she returned home. But it was easier thought that done. First of all it was a difficult task to find privacy in a house that was loaded with siblings who though wouldn’t understand anything but loved to poke their noses in elders’ work and read everything  they could very loudly. Then to get teased by all those who understand to whom you’re writing the letter, though they don't have a single clue about what you’re writing. Though this might not be challenge exactly in fact sometimes it may help you but it tends to get a bit embarrassing.

So approximately after around hundred attempts of trying to find a quite corner, around seventy attempts of shooing her siblings away, around 50 attempts of managing time, near about 30 attempts of deciding how to start and 15 attempts of actually writing a letter, finally at the stroke of midnight she was able to draft this

Dear would be husband,

I know you do not believe in letters as they are impersonal but I would not want to miss any chance of communicating with you. And being your would be wife I sincerely hope that you too would reply to them as a part of knowing each other better. I know we have an entire life to spend together and hence we would have a lot of time getting to know each other but don’t you think life ahead maybe be easier to kick off if we start as friends and not as total strangers? From what I observed about you, you’re a very passionate businessman, so think of this as a business deal; in a business deal wouldn’t you be more confident about conducting your business with someone with whom you’re on good terms rather than with someone whose name only you know? So keeping this in mind let us write to each other and who knows at the end of it you might start finding letters as very good means of communication? So in hope that you would reply I am continuing this letter.

In this letter I would say something about myself and in return I hope you would do the same to get an idea about our likes dislikes etc etc as a part of knowing the other party.

Well I am a plain next door girl who like every other girl loves talking. I am fond of music, I love reading books and love to dance to though I do not know how to, I try singing and people actually compliment me so I take it as a talent I inherited from my mom besides that I love cooking and spending time with children. I am an impatient person and also a little impulsive one, something I know I have to improvise in. It is easy to please me; brings me books, chocolates and roses and I will be the happiest person ever. I am not that short tempered but once I lose my temper I do not calm down easily. Though it may be easy to please me it is not easy to get my trust at all because I may be about roses but I am well aware about the thorns in them.

Now I would like to say something I observed about you and please I request you to write about the same because it would really mean a lot and this would be our acknowledging that do we really know each other or not? From what I observed about you I can say you are a very light sleeper because the whole house practically stays quiet when you’re sleeping so that you wouldn’t wake up. You are a discipline lover the way you’re book shelf is arranged and the way you’re siblings are well behaved around you. You are a very passionate businessman as I said above. Though you’re discipline lover you go easy on your siblings and love to spend time with them, hence showing that you love your family dearly and yes you also love them fiercely I remember your sister talking about how angry you were when you came to know someone was bullying her, you shouted on the school principal an instance that doubled my respect for you. You talk less very less according me, GOD how can you stay so quiet?
This is about me and about you from my viewpoint. And before you complain about talking too much I would end this letter.

Give my regards to Mom-Dad and love to siblings

Yours not so friendly

Would be wife  :)
