Chapter 12: chapter 12

Mom chuckled, “Oh, yeah! I forgot.”Paras – Your mom is very funny!Amit – Hey, don’t say like that!Aman – Don't worry, Amit. I didn’t mind it. I know about Paras. He is a very funny guy! Hehe. Paras – Thanks for understanding!Aman – Oh my God! From where did you learn these words? Hehe. Why are you trying to be a gentleman? Haha. I know about you who you really are!Paras – Haha! Okay, okay. Now, first of all tell us how is your life going on? Aman – Life is a big trouble my bro...Paras – Trouble? Why? What happened pal? Aman – I will tell you some other day. Amit – Why on some other day? Tell us now. Aman – How can I tell you now? You have come to my home after a long time and I don’t want to talk to you these things. Let’s talk about our school and college days. Amit – No! First tell us your problem. Aman – No...Amit – We are not strangers. We are your friends. Paras – Yeah. Tell us. Aman – Oh my God, we are meeting after a long time...Paras said loudly, “No! Tell us otherwise we are leaving.”Aman – Actually, it’s my marriage problem.Paras and Amit burst into laughter, “Haha! Marriage problem!”Paras – Marriage is a heaven pal! It’s not a problem! Haha!Amit chuckled, “I am wondering how marriage can be a problem?”Aman – Guys, actually, I never knew that to find a girl for marriage is a difficult task. Paras – Difficult for you? It is difficult for us, on that, I can agree but if you say it’s difficult for you, I can never agree!Aman – Really, it’s difficult for me too. Amit – Don't lie. You are a government teacher. Aman – Actually, it's also shocking for me! You know what, I am trying to find a good match for me but I am failing. Paras – How are you trying to find a good match for you? Tell us also. Amit – Yeah. Tell us. Aman – I have hired a marriage bureau. Paras – That's good. Then where is the problem? He must be showing many matches to you. Aman – Here is the problem. Amit – Means? Aman – He has not shown even a single match to me up to now. Paras – What! Not even a single match! Did he take any registration fee from you? Aman – Yes. Paras – How much? Aman – Five hundred. Paras exclaimed with a shocked face, “Just five hundred!”Amit was also shocked, “Only five hundred for marriage!”Aman – Don't get shocked guys. Five hundred rupees is just a registration fee. If marriage happens then he will charge ten thousand rupees. Paras – Oh, then It's okay. But still, he’s very cheap. Normally, marriage bureau charge like one thousand or two thousand rupees just for showing three matches.Aman – Oh...Paras – But the problem is that he has not even shown you even a single match despite you are a government employee. Did you talk to him about it? Aman – Yeah, I did. He said the market value of boys is very low as compared to girls nowadays! In his list the ratio of boys to girls who comes to him for finding their soul mate is 10:1. That’s what he said to me. Therefore, a girl has too many options for selecting a groom whereas a groom has little option for selecting a bride. Amit – Haha! Now, really your marriage has become a problem, I mean a mathematical problem! Haha!Paras – Haha! You are explaining your problem in a mathematical language. (Giggled)Aman – Yeah, it’s the best way to explain it. According to him, in 2022 the value of boys is nothing against the value of girls. A girl chooses the best among ten and the rest nine boys get nothing. Paras – Haha, my fool pal! It may also happen that he is just making fool of you. Aman – You mean? Paras – I mean it is also possible that no good girls come to his marriage bureau and he has nothing to show you. A businessman never tells his customers his weakness. It matters not how many times you ask him. If he shows his weakness and tells the truth to his customers, then it means he is not a businessman yet!Amit – Absolutely correct. I also feel the same. How come a non-drinker, non-smoker government teacher is not getting a good match!Aman – Oh my gosh! You may be right. Uncle Mohan may be making fool of me, hiding his weakness. Amit – Uncle Mohan? Who is he? Aman – Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you. He is the owner of the marriage bureau I hired. Amit – Okay. Now, I had become curious to know more from Paras. I said to him, “Suppose for a while, Uncle Mohan is lying to me and we can’t trust him anymore. Then what else can I do for finding a soul mate for me?”Paras – It's 2022 pal! Today, you can do too many things. Aman – Like? Amit interrupted, “You can buy Saturday and Sunday Punjabi and English newspapers, you can also buy Hindi newspaper, there you will find a lot matrimonial matches for you. There are two or three big pages showing matrimonial ads. And you have to pay only five to ten rupees.” He smiled.Paras – Amit, I never thought that you are such a stupid!Amit – I gave him the best idea ever and that also very cheap.Paras made a funny face, “Very cheap! Don’t give him cheap ideas. Give him the best ideas. I mean the best ideas of 2022. Aman, don’t listen to this stupid. (Chuckled) I tell you the best ways.”Aman – Okay, you tell me Paras. Paras – Have you heard about the websites like Jeevansathi.com, shaadi.com, bharatmatrimony. Com?Aman – Yeah, once I saw their ad but I don’t know that was of which company...Paras – There are many matrimonial websites like that. Do little research and choose the best one. Buy the paid membership and directly talk to girls!Aman – There girls are directly talking to boys. Paras – Yes, pal! It’s 2022. Talk to girls directly. If you like them, then take a step ahead else find more new girls. (It will be so nice of you, if you leave at least a single word comment 🌺❇️🌹🌺❇️)
