Day of full fledged grilling

The cough was unbearable..and so was the nose ready to run a marathon...almost making her rethink on her decision on attending the wedding. But she couldnt...it was her very good friend who was getting married who wouldnt mind if she would not turn up..but she had to, coz she wanted nothing to dampen his big day :):) {murga/murgi halal hone ka din..after 3 days of marination called"HALDI"and guess what this day is celebrated...buu:(:( }
The three friends met at the macdonalds and set to go...the wedding place was very near...she was glad. she for a change (according to her friend) was quiet...and after a bit of photoshooting and talking with friends ...drinking water...and eating a nameless starter wondered what to do next...her another friend was deep in conversation and she wouldnt have like to disturb her....her eyes wandered and she saw him. dressed in a brown coat, he looked really like "halal murga" lines of weariness etched even as he smiled. she wondered if his face ached doing that...she felt bad for him. she knew what he went through since at her sister's wedding some years back...when one had to hide the weariness and smile...greeting the guests...she wondered if he would remember if he remembered half the guests his wife introduced and vice versa. she let out a deep breath...she was bored actually ...she was never fond of these occasions...they gave her hives...she glanced at him...and he gave her a million dollar smile...not that of weariness...but a genuine happy one...and for the first time in the evening she was glad that she was there...
Just then the lights went....wondering if the dinner would be a candle light affair...and like they had gone...they came back...she had already started to think about dinner
Ater having a nice dinner they all set back to go home...but the day bieng dassera...there was durga visarjan...all the people looked at the procession wearily...wondering at the traffic...but she was facinated...the idol was beautiful....and she felt like singing inspite of her horribly hoarse voice..."wheres the party tonight..."
