YOU MADE MY LIFE

TANYA'S MOM

SARASWATI SHARMA

Now I am at my sister's place,as she is unwell I am here to look after here. Just now only I talked with Tanu about her whereabouts.

As I was sitting in the living room, didi came and sat besides me,and from the facial expression I know she wants to talk something serious,but I think she is nervous.

"Didi you know na you can tell me anything," I told my sister.

"Hmm,Saraswati,I want you that you convince TANYA for marriage soon,as she is 21 now,and you know its our house tradition that girls marry before the age of 22 and have kids."didi told me.

"I know di,but Tanu wants to work,its her dream that she work and earn for her family,and if vicky would be here he would have allowed her to work",

"But saraswati, he is no more and I want you to convince Tanya to marry,if she is not ready than force her,I also forced na my daughter for marriage and now see she is so happy with her family",didi said to me.

"But ,I don't want to force her in the marriage, I know how is she,she is like a flying bird,if I will restrict her from flying than she will not be happy.

"And she wants to do work for at least 1 year,she has promised me that after 1 year she will do whatever I tell her to do", I told my di.

"No, its not right,girls should not have the power to choose,and why she wants to work,she is a girl she should know to do house hold chores, and I am sure your daughter don't know anything. I don't know why you have pampered her so much.

If I would be her mom I would have got married her till now", didi told me.

"Di,why you are talking like that my daughter knows every household work, she is only weak in cooking,and I am teaching her na, she will learn soon,I know her", I said.

"I don't believe you,I thought you will convince her for marriage but no, you are supporting her.

I didn't except this from you,you are the only one who is going to break the family tradition,and I am telling you its not good", didi said and went in the room,living me in the worry.

I can't force her to marry an unknown guy, Sweta had a love marriage and it was a plan by her to marry that guy,she had replaced the boy at the time of marriage.

I know that because I heard Sweta and her husband talking,about their plan. I don't know what to do.

After sometime I went in Didi's room to talk to her,but she moved her face away from me,I went near her and sat besides her and told that I am ready to force TANYA for the marriage,but give me sometime to find the boy.

No need to find the boy ,I have seen the boy for her,he was your daughters classmate,his family is also nice and I want you to make your daughter ready for the marriage.

And his family told that they will allow Tanu to work after marriage ,but I said them no,because after marriage,our daughters should do household chores,not to go out and work.

But there is one problem,they want that TANYA should not know with whom she is getting married,it should be a suspense for her,and they don't want engagement ceremony also.

"But di how can I tell her to get married without seeing or knowing the boy", I told di.

"You should remember we also didn't knew whom we were going to get married,but we did for our parent's happiness,its upon you how you convince your daughter for marriage,but make sure you do.I have told yes to the boys family.

"And I hope you will not go against my wish", Didi told me and went.

"Now I have to convinced her to get marry to an unknown boy but how?",I thought.

Ya I have to do something serious that Tanu can't say no to it........

After sometime I got the plan and I told di to support me and she was very happy with my decision.
