" Itne sare footwear "
(So much footwear )
" What for " ?
I asked , in surprise .

" To fight with you "
she replied underneath .

" What "? I asked .

" Umm...... nothing .,
Footwear are for use , to walk "
She answered , as if I asked that .

" Yeah , but you have these much  ..."
She didn't even let me complete .

" No ,...I have boxes to unpack yet "
" But I'll do them after placing these "
She added giving me another shock .

I was lost at words , don't know how to react , may be she is fond of .

Breaking the silence she said
" Please  don't react like this "
" Fijul nhi h , bs jitne ki jrurat h ,
vhi khride hn "
( There's no extra ,
I bought only as much are required )

I can't stop my chuckle at this ,
" Really , as in "

" See these pairs of slippers are for home use , these for college ,  high heels are for night functions , sports shoes for jogging , then these boots for winters & these stilletoes for winter functions "

" Also it depends on what I wear na , how can one  wear sports shoes with salwar kameez " she completed .

" Hmmmm " I nodded ,
as I'm still in a bit of surprised state .

" You may keep some of  them in my almirah for the timing , I'll arrange a rack for all these , give me some time" .
I said , giving her keys to cupboard .

" Ye to half Khali h " she said as she opened it

" Aap chahe , to or saman b rkh skti h "
I offered her .

" If in case you have stuff left "
I added further .

" Yeah , actually , I have things ....thanks "
She thanked me , with a relaxed forehead ,
which was tensed yet .

"Rashi beta , have this first &
take rest ,you can do it later too"
Mummy said her giving a glass of hot turmeric milk .

"And Kabir , your dad told me to inform you that your tickets for Jaipur are booked . So , you people can start packing your stuff . "

"Tickets ?  "  I was surprised .

"Yeah , didn't you heard me ?" Mummy said .

"Don't show like you don't want to go on honeymoon  . We know you are doing a happy dance inside  "
my best friend Amol said that .
More than a friend he is like a  brother to me .

Mummy is smiling , and  Rashi  was looking down , she is embarrassed .

"Amol"I said with greeted teeth , so that he will stop  .

"What ? Stop giving me those angry Young man looks . "

" Mummy we  are going out . And will return till dinner " I said , motioning him to come .

"I'm not going anywhere . I just came to talk with bhabhi , not with you Mr. Boring "

"Rashi beta, he is Amol . Kabir's best friend . Consider him as his brother ."
Mummy introduced him to Rashi .

She joined her hand in namaste , with a sweet smile .

"She is not well Amol , you can...."
(He didn't let me complete)

"Wow!!!So caring hunnn .
See badi ma ,  how he throw me out of his life after getting married ".
(showing fake hurt)

"Anyways , you take rest bhabhi "
Amol said to Rashi .
