MEETING THE PARENTS

On a beautifull sunlight day,down on one knee...taking the hand of the girl...
I had proposed.she accepted it..my joy knew no bounds..
It was so very mesmerising then..I had what I wanted..my love by my side..

AS i had said, there is always a FLIPSIDE.

Now after 3 months of dating...she suddenly says to me one day
" what are you doin this sunday afternoon?"asked she
"nothing much..nething special this sunday?" i said
"well u r coming to my house sunday, my parents wanna meet u" said she
"can i have a glass of water plz" i gasped

There are times in a boy's life he just can never be prepared for....
Yes meeting ur Girlfriend's parents.....

well we are so occupied in hollywood movies now a days we somehow..forget what its like in here.
i was a shy guy in those days,,,,yea the one who turns crimson...as the blood somehow makes its presence
felt throughout the physiognomy.

well i drank lots of water...wore my best attire.and went 2 meet the parents.
the house looked Majestic...RICH ..2 cars were parked along with a bike...
( do they belonged to the family ..or were boroughed to impress me....)
I buzzed at their front door..(i did take large quantity of oxygen..i wud cease breathing anyway later on)

A lady opened the door...her mommy..i wished her and she somehow gave a very warm smile..
when I entered the house..it was beautifully decorated( RICH girl hhmmm)..
there was a couch nd the DAD was sitting on it like he were THE GODFATHER>>not the plain Father..
I wished him nd he beconed me to sit beside him..i obliged...

And we began to chat,.he somehow made it a habit that he shdn't give any trace of a so called "SMILE"
mommy went along providing eatables of many varieties...still i noticed she kept on judging me from one corner
of her eye everytime she crossed me,...(well "MOMMY" i m not shahrukh ..i wanted to scream)
AS i had my cheeks red as apples....sweaty palms....a million horrible expressions on my face...
she arrived..nd all was pleasant again.

Then as we all four began talking,...her brother arrived..nd that "look" again as if he were measuring me
(I guess its a family problem)..he shook my hand nd said hello..(he had it from the instant he saw me that...
1.He had seen me in the neighbourhood flirting with girls.
2.At the local pub.drinking like a hog.
3.And offcourse,.creating riots nd other such violence acts nd the night stop at the police station.
)

The dad started comparing me with all the boys he knew were more apt for his daughter..
The mom had completed full scanning of me..nd a detail project on me was ready with her..
The bro well....if he had his will he would love 2 kick me out of the house..
And my girl all the while stared at me smiling................
( now i was a mockery....gr8)

Then the indian touch..this wasn't a nuclear family after all..
many nieces..cousins..the bhaiyas ..the bhabhis...the chachas...the budhaas n buddhies
nd me well i started pinching myself(common this got to be a nightmare)
the kids already were amused by their latest toy "well that would be me".
And by jove!! the stares...I think tom cruise wud be ashamed by my popularity...

I had repeated my name nd my profile about 50 times..every new family member who came along made it a habit
2 feed me...as if i were the holy COW..nd feeding me would bring peace and prosperity to their home..
I had to compete with the entire brigade on every little thing i knew...like badminton..ludo...chess...
cooking...singing and dancing......nd offcourse even the "GUDDA N GUDDI AND GHAR GHAR" games.

I was the joker...nd the show went on nd on...
all this while SHE just stared at me.she kept on smiling ...
GOD I cud bear all this day in day out..if she kept on looking at me the way she was now.
AS i had this brief moments of joy..the youngest member of the family decided that tea break was over..
yea he suddenly started leaking sitting majestically over my lap. THE ICING ON THE CAKE.

Then all of a sudden she broke into laughter...then all of the rest "except me offcource".joined in
This was the limit...i got up nd began to leave..just then she took my hands nd pulled me back...
Then she stated very joyfully that all this was a setup nd i was made a fool.

what else cud I do...I started laughing too..

Every boy has to meet with his girl's parents someday
One advice frm my side please be cool "Every Doggy Has His Bad Day"
