The next morning, I was waiting for nitin. Avni had called me up to tell me that nitin would be
coming to pick me up on his way back to Avni's house .There, for the first time, I’d meet avni's family—except for her dad who was in abroad for meeting purpose.
While neil waited for him,  he spent his time doing some peculiar things. Standing in front of the
mirror,
He practiced lines which he  might have to say in front of her family in different situations. He wanted my
facial expressions and body language to make a good impression on her family. So, I rehearsed
some
common lines:
‘No, no, my parents won’t have any issues if she carries on with her career after marriage. In fact,
I am marrying her because she is a career-oriented girl.’ (With a brilliant use of the hands.)

‘I’m not sure if we’ll move so soon but, yes, the plans are there.’ (With confidence.)
‘Oh yes, I can cook. In my work-related trips abroad I learnt that, you know. It might not be as
delicious as what she can prepare, but it serves its purpose.’ (With a smile.)
And so on.
It was 10 a.m. To kill some more time, I moved out to the lounge. I was nervous again as I left my
room. The nervousness of facing so many new people at once. In the lounge, I glanced through the
newspaper and had a cup of tea, which was my only breakfast. I wasn’t feeling hungry at all, but
excited and thrilled.
A few minutes later, my cellphone beeped. It was an SMS from her.
Nitin would be there by 10.15.
Be ready and Gud Luk. A few
hrs from now u’ll b among
ur would be in laws. :-)

As soon as I read her message, a new number flashed on my cell’s screen. This time, it was nitin
calling me outside. I quickly finished my tea, put the newspaper back in the rack and left the hotel.
Soon, I was in his Qualis. Obviously, his dad was a big man. On our way to her house, he kept
telling me about his dad, who had been an amazing CEO . He kept talking about his
investments in real estate and in shares. And neil kept replying with ‘ok,’ ‘yeah’ and ‘oh really’—not
really listening to his big talk. All that was going through my mind at that point was how things
would plan out in the next couple of hours. I had never been to any in-laws till then! With the rest of
our
relatives, it was always the boy’s family who went to the girl’s. But here, things were so different. I
was all alone. So many thoughts going through my mind …
I am all alone. Damn! I don’t even believe I am doing this, going to visit my in-laws. Do I
need to tell her mother one more time that I love avni?
Thank God her dad is not home.
I should sound mature. A responsible citizen. Shit! Not citizen. A responsible person who will keep their avni very happy
for the rest of her life.

What will her home be like? Bigger than mine?

Is anybody going to ask me my salary? Should I add a few more thousands to the figure? They
have a big car too and I have just a bike—not even a Pulsar, at that.
Damn! What all I am thinking? Shit!
‘What happened?’ asked nitin. ‘No, no, nothing,’ I said, wondering if he heard my thoughts. ‘Hey!
Hey! Aisa hi hota hai,’ he mocked my condition. ‘What do you mean, aisa hi hota hai?’ I asked to
hide my restlessness. ‘Kuch nahin,’ he said with a smile and put on some music. After almost an
hour, we reached our destination. On the way, I bought a pineapple cake for them from a
Shop which nitin said was one of the best in their city. ‘Here we are. Lo aa gaya aapka
sasuraal,’ said nitin. ‘Boy! This is it,’ I said to myself.
I took a deep breath and got down from the vehicle and looked at the white-coloured house in
front of me. Then I opened the black gate and walked in. There were a few plants, with flowers
blossoming in them.
A tiled veranda, half of which was covered with a shed. I knocked on the door in
front of me, while nitin came after locking his car.
Somebody opened the door and I was excited to see who it was going to be.
Her mom. In a very simple and decent suit. No makeup at all, simply a kada in her right hand. She
appeared as simple as my mom. She smiled when she opened the door to welcome me in.
Namaste,’ I said and bent down to touch her feet.
Khush rahiye beta ji,’ she said kissing my forehead.
Her mom was delighted to see me. Finally, I was in front of her eyes. She was seeing, for the first
time, the person who was going to take her beloved daughter away from her. And in those eyes were
so many expectations, so many concerns and so much hope for her daughter.
She welcomed me into the drawing room. Nitin followed me, touching her feet.
‘Baitho beta,’ she said to both of us.
While we made ourselves comfortable, she asked me if I was well and if my journey had been
comfortable. Then she went out of the room, saying ‘Main bas abhi aayi.’ Probably, she went to the
kitchen.
Back in the drawing room, I was adapting to my would-be sasuraal. I liked the ambience of the
room: the sofa and the chairs surrounding the center-table at one end of the room; the TV set at the
opposite end, in a movable cabinet that had a lot of other stuff on its shelves decorative pieces,
including small, flowery miniatures on the upper left, the
money-plant in one corner, between the sofas and chairs; a couple of beautiful paintings on the wall
with the signatures of their makers at the bottom-right. The one in front of me was big, almost a
meter long, and depicted the baaraat of a Prince, who was on his horse, with his bride being carried
in a doli and a few people playing the shehnai.
‘How are you feeling?’ nitin  whispered from the other end of the sofa, having his share of fun in
all that was happening.
‘I am doing fine,’ neil whispered back.
‘Good,’ he smiled.
