be with you for your lifetime. Your mama lives near here, we'll definitely manage for a few years."

 

Shilpa's father said, "dear, don't worry about us. We are still in good condition."

 

Shilpa "You don't understand, he is saying 5 to 10 years now, he will decide to spend the rest of his life abroad tomorrow, so what?"

 

Kavita "Think for a few days and decide. If the boy is sensible, he will think of everything."

 

Shilpa "Sure, will think, right now feeling a lot of burden."

 

The next day, Shilpa went to the office on Monday, she got a headache. After reaching office, she was sitting with her hands on her head in her cubicle. After a while Arun came and saw that she was holding her head. He said looking at her avatar. "Does it bother you that your team members are late?"

 

Shilpa "Why don’t you quite for a while?"

 

Arun "Nowadays, When you are trying to be kind, in return you will get a slap on your face. "

 

Shilpa "I am feeling very low, please it is not time for a joke."

 

Arun “Sorry, do you want to go to the canteen? It would be nice to have some tea. and I am very hungry.

Shilpa "Are you polyphagic?" You want to eat all the time ”

 

Arun Not polyphagic but I am Bakasur[demon who eats a lot]. Hee hee hee "

 

Shilpa says with a smile, "Yes, you are really Bakasur."

 

In the morning the company canteen is a bit chaotic with a lot of people having breakfast. Shilpa and Arun sit at a table in the corner with tea and breakfast.

 

Arun "Tell me, madam, how do you feel now?

 

Shilpa "Yesterday, As I told you before, I had a meeting for a marriage proposal, the boy was good, He is clear in his head."

 

Arun "Then, where is the problem?"

 

Shilpa "He wants to go and work abroad for a few years, but I can't stay long from my mother and father."

 

Arun "Oh,all these questions would be if he accepts the proposal."

 

Shilpa "He is more likely to say yes."

 

Arun "How do you know he will say “yes”?"

 

Shilpa "Girls know"

 

Arun "Sixth sense, oh great, then you can call and explain your problem?"

 

Shilpa "OK"

 

Arun "Just call now and make it clear. If you say yes, it is fine and if you say “no” that fine, will search another one"

 

Shilpa "Ok, Calling him."

 

Arun "I'll finish the idli by the time your conversation on phone will finish and I am also going to get something more. Do you want anything ?"

 

Shilpa "Okay, bring me a Vadapav"

 

There is a balcony in front of the canteen Shilpa went there.

 

Shilpa "Hello, Shilpa Shinde here, Can I speak with Sandeep?"

 

Sandeep "Yes,How are you doing? "

 

Shilpa “Good, Do you have some time now? It was something important to talk about. "

 

Sandeep "Yes, I have time, we can speak"

 

Shilpa "For me to decide, this is an important question."

 

Sandeep "go ahead"

 

Shilpa "Yesterday you told me that you want to go abroad for a few years."

 

Sandeep "Yes"

 

Shilpa "I can't live far away from my mother and father as they are old."

 

Sandeep "I know what you're talking about, but I'm sorry, I have to stay abroad for five to ten years for my career."

 

Shilpa "Thanks, you have clearly expressed your opinion, our paths going in different directions, good luck to you for your future."

 

Sandeep "Good luck to you too."

 

Shilpa turns off her mobile phone and walks slowly where Sandeep is sitting.

 

Arun "What happened?"

 

Shilpa "His decision to go abroad is firm and important for him."

 

Shilpa sits very quietly.

 

Arun “Why don't you go away from all this for a few days? Sometimes change is better. ”

 

Shilpa "Where should I go?"

 

Arun "Yesterday, Vivek was saying that an onsite team needs a team lead for six to seven months and you are perfect for it, Vivek wants to send you, listen to me, you must go."

 

Shilpa "Oh but"

 

Arun "Nothing happens in six to seven months and Kavita is here to take care of your parents."

 

Shilpa wants a change and thus is ready to go to the United States Dallas. She was staying near to her office in a service apartment. She was busy with her work in the office, wandering around every weekend with the Indian co-worker. No one asked her about her marriage plans. As it was spring in the United States it was cold, but everywhere, there was green grass and flowers blossoms.

 

There was a party for successful completion of a project on which Shilpa was working. The party was in the evening. Shilpa had bought some special clothes for the party. After leaving the office, she got ready and all her coworkers went to a restaurant.

 

It was evening time, in one corner sat Shilpa, Sameer, Shilpa's co-worker in India, Mark (client manager) and some others. After everyone ordered a meal, Mark began to say, "Congratulations to everyone for on time and the perfect job."

 

Shilpa "Your planning worked very well, so it was possible."

 

Mark “Your efforts are also very important, we will celebrate the completion of the project in India too, I am visiting soon, we would go somewhere like we had been outing all day. ”

 

Sameer ​​"I remembered one party in India, We had a discussion about our Indian arranged marriage at that time."

 

Mark "Yes, what do you call him in your language?"

 

Shilpa "Lanagan julawane"

 

Mark "Isn't that what you said when you met for a marriage proposal discussion?"

 

Shilpa "Yea, we call it as Kande pohe(match making)"

 

Mark "Oh yes, Kande pohe, must be a fun experience."

 

Sameer "Shilpa knows better, She has a lot of experience."

 

There were tears in Shilpa's eyes and she said, "Sameer, you are stretching it too."

 

Sameer "Sorry..."

 

Mark realized that the matter was getting serious, so he said on the plus side of arrange marriage, "Hey, you have this way, it is good. Look, I had a breakup two years ago. I had been in a relationship for five years. Now I don't want to go to pubs and to look for the right girl. After a couple of beers you like someone but the next morning you realise what you did. ”

 

Sameer ​​"Oh, your family or friends may be suggesting a girl to date."

 

Mark "Yeah, but it is not so obvious like you and we hesitate”

 

Shilpa pauses and says, "It sounds weird, but it would be nice to understand each other's opinions."

 

For a while everyone is engrossed in the meal. Sameer went out to get a car.
Mark compliments Shilpa, "You look great in this dress." Shilpa smiles a little and says "Thanks".

 

Mark pauses and says, “If you have time tomorrow, why don't you go out? I know that it does not fit into your culture, There is no pressure if you want to. "

 

Shilpa looks around and says "Can I call you tomorrow to confirm?"

 

Mark "Sure, you can."

 

Everyone leaves, Shilpa's filled with a lot of emotions and thoughts. She thought to call Arun for an opinion. May not be Arun as he can share this with everyone. She remembers her special friend Snehal. Snehal was the bravest girl among her school girlfriends. She married a Christian boy without her parent’s consent.

 

Shilpa calls her and says "Hello Snehal, Shilpa here"

 

Snehal "How are you and Wow you are in America, I saw your photos on Facebook"

 

Shilpa I am enjoying my US tour. How are you doing? ”

 

Snehal "Nothing special, after a long time we are speaking with each other."

 

Shilpa "Yup, thought of calling you….." with hesitation in her voice

 

Snehal "humm go on.., don’t hesitation"

 

Shilpa "I wanted your advice."

 

Snehal “About?”

 

Shilpa "Please won't tell anyone"

 

Snehal "No, I swear"

 

Shilpa "An American man asked me for a date, shall I go?

 

Snehal “Go on, cool, but how’s he? Are you familiar with him or from Tinder etc. ”

 

Shilpa "familiar, works in my office here, I have known him for the last few years, but I'm scared, I don't want to do anything like that."

 

Snehal "Look, if you know him and you believe in him, then go, no matter who the man is, it is up to the woman."

 

 

Shilpa "Thanks, he looks like a gentleman and he has an idea of ​​our Indian culture."

 

 

Snehal "Don't be afraid, go on... Bindas, Wow.. maybe you will get a blonde... “Gora” American life partner."

 

Shilpa "Come on, I just want to spend some time with him."

 

Snehal "Ok, go on"

 

Shilpa "Come on, I'll hang up now. It's been mid night here."

 

Snehal “Ok dear, sleep now, you have to do a lot of things tomorrow."

 

Shilpa "I don't think your naughtiness has diminished after marriage."

 

Snehal "On the contrary, it grows, I also want to have an affair with a American blond"

 

Shilpa "Come on, what about your Joseph?"

 

Snehal "Don’t worry about him, bye, sleep now"

 

Shilpa "Bye"

 

Shilpa wasn't able to sleep till late at night, She was hesitant to go with Mark but finally she decided to go. When she woke up in the morning, she called him and told him that she had time from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm in the evening and after that she was going to meet a college friend at eight o'clock. She lied about meeting with another friend to avoid being late with Mark.

 

Shilpa and Mark watched the English movie "Snatched" and then went for dinner. Shipa and Mark selected Thai restaurant for dinner.

 

Shilpa "I hope you will not like that villain who drugged the Heroin on date. And then cheated on her?"

 

Mark "Yes, maybe, I got drugs too."

 

Shilpa "So what, I am not like that girl who got easily fooled"

 

The waiter comes to write the order.

 

Mark begins to order "Catena Malbec Wine and Chili Basil Rice for me, Shilpa what do you like to order."

 

Shilpa "I'll have red curry rice"

 

Mark "You must try bitter lemonade, specialist of this restaurant"

 

Shilpa "Why bitter lemonade? Why can't I have beer or wine?"

 

Mark "I thought you may not like to have one. Usually Indian girls don’t take alcoholic beverages"

 

Shilpa "Well, I don't want any drink"

 

Mark "Are you upset? I assumed you."

 

Shilpa "No, nothing like that"

 

They both start eating. For a while no one talks. Mark begins to speak.

 

Mark “You Asian girls are family oriented, you maintain relationships. So today, many American Caucasian (white) like to choose Asian girls as life partners. ”

 

Shilpa "Why do most men expect women to be family oriented?"

 

Mark "I don't understand what you mean?"

 

Shilpa "It's just that you men expect only women to take care of children, family, house and so on and so forth"

 

Mark "Not all men expect this, much less in Western culture"

 

A waiter appears near Mark, and Mark asks Shilpa, "Do you want some beer?" Shilpa “Heineken beer”, Mark orders wine once again.

 

Shilpa "Yes, Mens sometimes don't expect and don't do anything. And thus all the burden to keep family in place has to be carried by womens."

 

Mark "Some are, but some are very caring."

 

Shilpa "Yes, I agree. In our India, 90% of all household responsibilities are left to women."

 

Mark "What do Indian husbands expect from wife?"

 

Shilpa "First of all, she must be fair"

 

Mark "Somehow, almost all Indians are black or wheat brown or a little fair." Then why do they want a white girl? ”

 

Shilpa "Fair skin color is a symbol of beauty in India. White people ruled for 150 years and thus increased the appreciation of fairness."

 

Mark "What else do Indian husbands expect?"

 

The waiter comes with the beer and wine he has ordered, and he serves wine to Shilpa and beer to Mark.

 

Shilpa "Look, here too, the preferences for man and woman were imposed. Wine woman and the beer for the man."

 

Mark “Many waiters ask before serving but..”

 

Shilpa “That's ok, you were asking about expectations. Now the majority wants Women should have jobs and take care of the house, family and extended family too. ”

 

Mark "There are a lot of expectations, here women should be self-reliant. In case of divorce, womens can sustain themselves."

 

Shilpa “Wetsern men's help with the housework. That's not the case in India, usually larger families, Husband's parents also part of the family. In India, a boy takes care of his parents. My parents have two daughters, me and my older
