My Accidental Marriage

Chapter 30| My Khush

Manish had ordered lunch in their room itself and the 2 enjoyed their meal as they tried a dish called Mie Goreng which was literally fried noodles with veggies and egg. These 2 days had taught Khushi one thing for sure. Food in Bali is tough for Vegetarians as Bali cuisine was filled with non veg items. A vegetarian's only hope is few western dishes such as sandwich, noddles, fried rice or Indian restaurants located in Bali.

Later after resting for some time, they decided to get dressed for the beach. For Manish it was a simple change from lower to swimming shorts and a random tshirt.  But the main Problem always arises for females.

Why for men one pair of clothes are suitable for any environment and condition that arises, but for female, every event, every environment requires a different set of clothes. Sometimes a event demands more then 1 set of clothes. The same problem raised in Khushi's mind.

What was she to wear to the beach? Of course they would be going in the water. She can't wear jeans or top. She had already realized the different type of clothing that was worn here. But the Gift Pihu has given her was also too much. Sure she could wear the tank top. At least the only thing it revealing in the Tank top was her shoulders and after wearing the spaghetti strap dress she was not uncomfortable with them, but the short. The short were so short that they would barely come to her mid thigh. How can she wear them? In front of Manish? In front of outsiders? No no no.. this can't do.

As Khushi sat there debating withing herself, Manish saw her stressed. He watched as her face expressions changed from calm to shocked to cringe to what not. She looked really cute making these faces but he knew deep inside herself she was in a big debate. But about what?

Manish:"Khushi? Khushi... Khush!"(Khushi looked up at the last call startled)

Khushi:"huh?"

Manish:(coming towards her)"What are you stressing your tiny brain on? May I know"

Khushi:(frowned)"My brain is not tiny"

Manish:(smiled)"Of course miss topper. Now tell me what's the matter?"

Khushi:"I...am not sure what to where"

Manish:"oh.. for this simple thing your stressing yourself?"

Khushi:(frowned again as she scoffed)"It's not as simple as you think. Of course you don't have to worry as you can wear this same shirt and shorts anywhere you want but us girls, we have to make sure our outfit fits each and every occasion."

Manish:(raised his eyebrows)"Accha ji?" Translation:"Oh really?"

Khushi:(nodded )"Han ji!" Translation:"Yes!"

Manish:"Accha baba theek hai leave this. Lets solve your problem first." Tanslation:"okay leave this. Lets solve your problem first."

Manish sat next to Khushi who nodded as she turned to him.  Manish sat for a moment thinking before he turned to Khushi.

Manish:"You can wear what you wore in the morning why swimming."

Khushi:"no.. it's no suitable. Plus I will look odd."

Manish:"Khushi it doesn't matter what others think. You should do and wear what you feel is comfortable"(Khushi just looked down towards her hand and didn't respond)" Alright. Do you want to go shopping instead of the beach? We can go there later? We can shop a swimming suit you will be comfortable with"

Khushi:(sighed)"I already seen the swimming suit they sell, It's worse then what I have."

Manish:"What do you have?"

Khushi:(looked at him nervously)"Well.. umm.. Pihu packed a tank top and shorts for swimming. They are soft and the swimming material only "

Manish:"then what's the problem?"
