hey friends,
Heres the first part, u may not find it interesting enough as it consists of riddhima's thoughts to give a glimpse of her personality,but it will get funny as it progress.
PART 1
There is no more spare item than the sister of a bride during her younger sister's wedding. Especially if is she is her 26-year old spinster sister. She is going to be the target of all the guests who ask in softly modulated voices well pitched to reach her ears.
" Oh so that is the elder sister? And unmarried? What is wrong with her? "
The implication being that there must have been something worng with me that i did not accept all those idiotic specimens brough up for review on the matrimonial field who were so obedient to their family's dictates that they were willing to be sold for a price called dowry.
How would i be able to respect a man who did not have the self-respect to say i take this woman as she is without the trappings of gold?
To begin a new life with her without resorting to the hard earned money her poor father had to shell out to get rid of her. All because society demands it !
Something wrong with me !
Or was there something wrong with me because i did not have the sheer gumption to find an eligible boy like rahul for myself, as muskaan had done? But to find your fairy tale prince charming, you had to kiss a lot of frogs first, and i was not willing to do that.
Of course i knew that absurd cliche about the girls who keep on waiting for "Mr. Right" to come along get left behind. And if you want a "bungla" and "gaadi" along with "balma anaadi", you have to shift yourself.
But at what cost? Get a name as a flirt, like muskaan had or of a desperate or frustrated female? No, thank you.
Atleast i had my self respect and i was happy that i held onto my principles. So here was i, dressed up in a baby pink anarkali long silk suit, trying my best to put on a modest demeanour, because i did not want the cats to say.
" look at her! Behaving so immodestly because her younger sister is getting married and she is not ! I can not beleieve that she is not jealous. If she had a bit of sense, she would have trapped an eligible boy herself."
What was i supposed to be - a mousetrap to trap rats??
And that meant smiling at nothing at all and talking in a soft voice and making no eye contact with any one of the masculine gender. Not that i wanted to do it. The family members of the boy's team consisted of some desperate flirts who wrongly imagined that a marriage was the best place to gain more addressess of pretty girls. Intentions strictly dishonourable, of course.
But i wonder if there exists a guy i can look upto? Will I ever be able to find my "Mr. Right" or should i say "Mr. Wrong" as am said that something is wrong with me?
