Man is never satisfied with his life. Even if he has lots of money, there are certain things which he cannot buy. If he does not have money, then also he cannot have everything in life. My life was also passing from the same phase. At that time, I had totally lost hope for my wedding. And I had decided that after Chuttan’s wedding, I would find some day boarding school and would move there with my mom. One day I received a call from Delhi. It was again a proposal and the boy was in Delhi only. I told Honey about it and one Sunday we planned a meeting with him.

The boy was coaching civil services aspirants. He had called us to old Delhi and it was very far off from our place. We reached early. He told us that he would come with his brother but he came alone that evening. When I saw him he was holding helmet in his one hand and had asked us to sit somewhere. Honey said that we all should move to a nearby restaurant. When as soon as Honey put up a question to him and he opened his mouth to answer, I noticed that his teeth must have been stained with the paan and supari that he had a regular habit of eating. I decided at that moment only that I would not marry him because these type of habits I hardly appreciated. And I was praying that Honey must not say yes to him. He liked me and was ready to marry. He also asked me about my job and offered me that I could look after his institute also after marriage. One thing we did not like about him was that he said he would be coming with his brother and he came alone which was very negative from his side. We all left half- heartedly on that day. After that day he called me up but I had not given him any response. In this way, this story also ended.

Time was running fast. Every year we used to meet two to three boys and it was all just a waste of time and money. I was little frustrated also. Once we had an advertisement printed in the newspaper as well. From that ad one of the boy called up Honey and he was working as personal assistant in Simbhaoli sugar mills. Honey and I went to see him there. He was a nice fellow. After that he came to our house in Delhi. He also liked me and invited Honey to his place which was in Lucknow. Mom and Honey went there but mom said they were very weak financially. And the boy was only graduate. He got his job transferred from there to Khatauli. But it was also not successful for him as I was really ambitious at that time to leave Delhi and move to a town. Each day passed with some hope or the other but nothing happened. Some people used to say something special is coming your way which is very different, that is why your marriage is taking time.
