My mother called me back to tell me the real reason she called!
Gori Foi had phoned to say her say that her neighbour was looking for a 'nice girl' for her son.
"Ettlo haro pooiro che!, kurta, beard ne hando!", Gori foi had said to mummy.
So the lovely boy wants to meet Sabera.
Sabera however, is just not interested!
Mummy said that after much persuasion Sabera had relented and agreed to atleast meet him, she even got curious about his name and surname and mummy had thought she was finally coming around. Then all of a sudden she flew of the handle and changed her mind. She was refusing to meet him.
Mummy and Gori Foi decided that telling the boys family not to come now was just rude, so they arranged for them to meet at my home!
Sabers is going to be furious! I begged mummy not to put me in the middle of this. My mother somehow talked me into agreeing and I just had a nasty feeling.
My mother thinks Sabera is just being difficult, this boy was from a respected family, he was a hafiz, he is an accountant and already has a job...in my mothers eyes, it was already a match.
Once I got of the phone with my mother, I too was thinking that no harm could come from them just meeting. Nobody was asking Sabera to marry him on the spot, or even like him...but she could at least meet him.
Imraan didn't like my mothers sneaky idea about ambushing Sabera into meeting this guy. Imraan felt like Sabera probably had a good reason to refuse...
"A good reason like what!", I challenged him.
" like maybe she already has somebody else in her life or on her mind.", Imraan suggested.
WHAT!!!!
How could Imraan even suggest that!
I was so mad at him.
He smiled slyly..." Maybe her big sister thought her a thing or too...!", he winked.
I couldn't help but laugh!
"Well, if it doesn't work out with this guy, there is somebody I would like to introduce her too...", Imraan said offhandedly.
Whaaaaat! Who?!;!
Imraan that monkey...he just winked again and left for work.
