Maadhuri's pov

       The day flew faster, after the rituals we returned from temple and started to prepare for the reception.

      "Maadhu...Maadhu" my mom called me.

      "Yes amma, whats it" I looked at her while wearing my ear rings.

       "You are gonna meet a guy this evening. We found him suitable to you". My mom said as she corrected the pleats of my saree. "This red saree suits you too well" she added.

      "Wh...what? Today?"

       "Yes, today evening and be a good girl, stay quiet" with that she went.

        Oh god what am I gonna do....

Evening.....

    The hall was booming with joy. I should be having fun with my friends, but here I am sitting nervously in a corner.

      "Stop being nervous Maadhu. He will like you for sure" my dearest friend Nisha tried to cool me down.

      Nisha is my diaper buddy....we were neighbours and our family had a good relationship with each others since our grandfathers time. We did our schooling and college together. She knew well about me and knows how to manage me during my worst times. Thats why I kept her with me now.

      "But what if he don't" I was really worried of him not liking me.

      "He should be a blind person for not liking you. If I was a boy I would have already proposed to you my darling" she winked at me.

      "Oh stop it you i***t I would have rejected you already..I don't wanna spend my life with a dumbo like you"

      "Ohh darling I am hurt" she pretended to be hurt with a hand on her chest, Ohhh drama queen, I just rolled my eyes at her . I didn't know what I would do without this i***t by my side.

       After some time my mom came and said the guy liked me. Seriously!!! When do we meet? I was really confused "Oh amma no one came here to see me" I said to my mom " yes aunty no one came here" Nisha said from my side. "Yeah, he saw you from afar and when he came to meet you he got an urgent call so he went outside but before going he said that  he liked you".

      "But mom I wanna see him na. I don't know his name or what he do" I said "I know dear, his mother said she will send you his picture and his details to you later" with that she went to greet others.

       After sometimes I received a message from an unknown number. There was a picture. My heart skipped its beat when I opened it. There was a man standing in his full height, looking as handsome as he can. There was a name and mobile number next to his picture. 

     "Wowwww...." Someone said from behind me. I turned to look at Nisha who was looking at his picture without blinking an eye. "Hey, if you don't like him then there is no problem you can just share this to my parents....why are you glaring at me like this". I know what this i***t is upto. How can anyone not like him?

        Just in time my mom called me to ask whether I received the picture. "Yes mom just now I received it" I replied. "So, do you like him?" She asked me "ohhh aunty she is drooling over him right now" Nisha shouted from near me. "Shut up you silly girl" I used my hands to shut her mouth "Yes mom, I like him" I said "I know you would like him...I am so happy for you" my mom said and with that she disconnected the call.

       Once again I looked at my screen and my lips inadvertently said his name.
