All he wanted was someone to go to family events with. So that people wouldn't pity him for being lonely. Someone he could cuddle with at night, bring flowers to, and share the evening tea.
She wanted to try for the next level, get the next big project, and not be asked to sleep around for favors. She wanted to travel to other places for work, without having to beg for her parents' permission.
They met. "What do you want in a relationship?" was the common question. And they both told each other with absolute transparency and honesty what they wanted.
Each one took a total of 5 minutes to say, "I can do it."
The families were more than happy to organize the wedding. The bride was a successful engineer, and the groom was a bank manager, sarkari Naukri. Each side had something to flex about.
A few years ago, he had lost both his parents. Around the same time, she was asked to compromise for a promotion. She quit the company but got scarred. He carried the death of his parents like a weight around his neck.
The ceremony got over with flowers, gifts, and the priest chanting mantras.
The married couple found recluse. She could travel for work. No one dared to ask a married woman for favors or sensed she would quit if she was made uncomfortable. He was greeted at family events like the luckiest man alive to have found such a talented bride. In between all this, shared tea, phone calls, "reached, am safe, goodnight," shy smiles, and unplanned holidays and lil gifts for each other was the marriage story.
