I know I am not the only daughter to have
this conversation with Maa!!!
It has become a routine, after I
reach home finishing day’s diary I call her every day. Or else Mom never calls
until and unless it’s the same classic conversation. Last week Saturday-
happened to be a half day ….went down with my laundry bag, as it was poorly
spilling over with cloths :(
Phone rings…….. Mom Calling….
Mom: Eventually you should think
to get married, Kaira
Me: Really?
Mom: I don’t want any joke on
this part
Me: Mom I know
Mom: So what you deem?
Me: Mom, it’s a clear no until the
guy has a good career, mature but makes me laugh and has a great sense of style.
Then I will talk.
Mom: Seems you have bounteous of demands…..A tall order for
me!
My eyes wink……my laundry bag about to slip
from my hands……
Me: Tall order?? Mom did I said anything which is rare or just impossible, if I cannot deem for these than what else should I expect?
Mom: All cannot be Brad Pitt or Leonardo,
kaira
Me: Mom I know, but I have
prepared myself to wait…….please understand I am in no rush (Die to Wed? huh…..I murmur)
Mom: Sighs and mumbles something (under her breath), which was not audible to me anymore……………
