Vasuki spoke up,” Varun, How are you?”

“I am good ma. How are you and everyone in home?”

“Everyone is good here. Did you eat?”

“Yes ma. You take care of yourself well. Ma, you called me thrice yesterday? Any important matter? Sorry ma, was struck in meeting so couldn’t speak to you.”

“Yes Varun. Do you remember the girl whom you selected before leaving?”

Varun thought, “If I say YES to her now she may find out that I was acting that day. So let me pretend that I forgot and put on an act well.”

So he replied,” Which girl ma?”

Vasuki on hearing him opened her mouth wide open and saw Maya. Maya smiled at her and thought,” He is really making it difficult for himself.”

He spoke again,” Ma… Ma…”

Vasuki then spoke up,” Her name is Maya. Do you remember her now? The girl who was well educated and from good family.”

“Oh! That girl. Ya ma. I remember her now. So what now? Didn’t I tell you that we will speak to them once I am back?”

“Ya the same girl. Since we had already seen the horoscope I called them again and spoke up yesterday.”

Varun thought,”Oh! Crap! Again there is going to be another problem now.”
