The way of life..

The car jerked before it stopped. She looked at the gear handle. Gosh! Not again! She had wrongly put on the 4th gear instead of the 2nd. She suddenly panicked and looked up to see if there were any traffic police guys around. Then she realized she doesn’t have to worry as she had got her driving license recently. She started her journey again. The haunting thoughts came back. She needed to make a decision now. It was the most important decision she ever needed to take in her life. She was troubled by it clearly…

She was a workingwoman. She enjoyed her job and the 2 years in the company was the best time of her life. She has been noticed; she has friends and has an inspirational manager. She had everything going her way. From an apprehensive reticent personality that she somehow managed to be throughout her college life, she has transformed into a more vocal and confident smart pretty girl. She had so many guys behind, trying to flatter her. But she has been smart and focused enough not to get involved into any relationship when her career was just shaping up. But now…

She never believed in love marriage. She loved her parents very much and waited till they decided on her guy. They did. He was another software professional in her hometown. She got a chance to meet and interact with him. She liked him instantly. He was loving, caring and a perfect gentleman. There was not a single blemish in him and she felt she was very lucky indeed. They spoke about marriage, company, life, politics, everything they could think of. He told her he would take her to Switzerland for honeymoon and he also that he cared a damn about the population; he needed 16 kids. She liked his childish statements and she truly enjoyed his company. He made her smile like no one could for a very long time. She was thrilled…

He wanted her to quit her job. She knew she couldn’t. She couldn’t leave this happy life and the city that gave her a new life. She couldn’t leave her friends here, the people who have helped her improve her personality tremendously. Her company didn’t have an office in her hometown but his had one in her city. He wasn’t ready to shift to a new city though. She tried her best to convince him. She couldn’t…

The car reached her home. Her parents were inside. Waiting to get her nod for the marriage. She was thinking.
I am an independent confident woman. Shouldn’t I stop some guy who bosses me around before marriage? If he can’t even adjust this, how will he for the rest of our lives? Won’t I get a better guy in my life? Do I need someone better in the first place? Isn’t he the best guy I have ever seen?
She had to make a decision. Soon. She went inside the house…


Epilogue:
Three years later: He whispered to her in the hospital room, "2 down, 14 to go! Great going wife!!" She managed to convince him after all. Confident girls can do wonders. Men simply melt before them. He moved to the same city as hers. But guys can be smart too. He made sure she didn’t have to go to the office much. 2 pregnancies and well, she was in her hometown for most of the time. Their journey continued…
