HER STORY - Part 1
CHAPTER - 1


"Hey ! Could you listen to me for a while ? "She screamed at me ignoring my wonderful thought about the upcoming inauguration ceremony of the New grand shopping mall in the Chennai city. " What mom ? You are always saying the same that I am hearing for one year.....oh sorry , it's been one year and two months.......why can't you stop this ?......Feeling so bored. "So you are bored while I am saying something very serious.You are also behaving like your sister......never listens to me......." Mom said. She was cutting the vegetables so hardly as it is very clear that all her anger is immersed on the poor tomatoes and onions. " Mom, What is the point of ggetting married at such a young age .You know that I am just 26 ". " Just 26 !!!!".She screamed so loudly even the laundry man near our house would suddenly jump from his position. Mom moved her hands towards the fry pan and continues to speak. " What do you mean by just 25 ? Every girls on your age have been married and settled happily with their children.And you are still struggling on your degrees ". Now, it was my turn to stay mouth shut. She was absolutely correct .All my cousins and girlfriends have married and I am moving in with my PG degrees. But it was not a struggle for me.I do enjoy my studies.
