afraid one!

Afraid one??

We were eating the dinner silently. There was no sound, no laugh nothing but chewing voice from our gums!? Don't know what was I thinking! But still I want to hear something form my father and mother.

So I decided to break the ice. That's what he also thought at the same time. We both acted on impulse at the same time.

"Er....... You go first" he.

"Th- thanks! Mom, do you want some roti?" I asked what I wasn't gonna ask.

Mom,"since when did you started caring about me,huh?"

Got hurt by this, I shushed.

After dinner, we sat in our common room. Silence! A huge silence. I can't accept this and turned to him. Fortunatly he got signal and turned to dad.

" Uncle, I want to thank you for inviting me to dinner."

" No need! It wasn't me who invited you in first place."

"Stop it! Do you want to only guy frightened?"

"Just saying the facts! Not like I'm disapproving him right away!"

"You just don't have to talk anything.Let me handle this one."

" How many choices do you think we have according to our daughter's behaviour?"

"That's the only reason I'm shutting ya off ya bullhead!"

Mother and father dearly conversing about,, how I can be not marriage material and still have to marry me to someone at the same time, not knowing we could hear them clearly.

"Uh-hu" I made little noise. Coming to the posture straight, mom smiled at him and said enthusiastically, " what exactly you do beta? And when will you take her away from us?"

"What? This was not the one decided!"

"Don't intervene. I want her to marry before she changes her decision."

"Oh yes!"

"Aunt, actually we decided not to get married yet. She wants to pursue her job and I want to support her for that. I actually want all of us to support her" he said it like in one breathe.

" He just betrayed you with one sentence." My dear sister adding oil to the fire.

And this was the beginning of the war which going on until I said, " oh man! See what is the time? Don't you think you should leave now?"

"Yes babe! Thank you for reminding me.

he exclaimed.

"Ok! ya can. but don't you dare to ditch my daughter." my father said in raged voice.

"oh don't worry beta! just go now" mom.
