A flash for the weekend...

I thought that it wouldn't mean much more than a slew of golden bangles and a token red sari, when he asked. I didn't think for one second about his judgmental parents, his innumerable aunts and uncles, his expectations. I just thought that one day maybe we'd have beautiful latte-coloured children: bilingual,resourceful. I was only thinking how much I loved him, when he opened those gorgeous soft lips and said, "Will you marry me?"
