Anshu took my mobile. She browsed through the messages.

Message from Anshu Husband - Received 11:16 AM yesterday
"Ash! I left my mobile at home and I am at Anshu's."
She started speaking, "Wow! Exactly the same! From brother and sister! Looks like a wonder!".
She turned to TEJA, "Did you copy paste it?". She didn't let him answer, "How can we copy paste in different mobiles?".
Teja assured her that its just a coincidence. I smiled at myself. I could see my smile in the mirror.
Anshu turned to me, "Why did you save Ganesh's contact as Anshu Husband. See! You missed an important message. Love message!". She started thinking, "It seems you have already started the love fights. Couldn't you wait until you get .. mm..". She paused. I ignored her and showed my teeth to her.
Teja smiled at me and left the room.
All good! Anshu declared! She polished my face with makeup and I was kind of shining. I smiled. Vennela entered the room, she almost ignored me and spoke to Anshu, "It's time! Let's go".
They were dragging me and we almost entered the living room. Anvesh popped the birthday blaster and I was looking at those sparkles. I was smiling. I saw T E J A! I saw...
Mom! Dad! I ran to them!.
Happy birthday Darling! They wished me.
I saw many people gathered for my birthday party. It took few minutes to recognize everyone. Teja's parents were also there. Anshu took me to them and was introducing me to them. I just smiled and started greeting them. Many crazy things happened a few days ago. What to say? Nothing! I just smiled! They wished me a happy birthday. Teja's mom took my right hand into her hands and she said, "Good bless you!". I felt good. I smiled and thanked her. I was a bit worried if they will like me.. dislike me..
*After breakfast!
Grandma made us all sit in the living room. She started speaking. It was time to get back to the actual discussion. The duscussion which was kept on hold by me.
"Now that Teja and Ash darling like each other. We can proceed to the wedding."
Wedding..Did I hear it correctly? They said Engagement ceremony? Wasn't it?
"Teja needs to visit UK for about 1 year. So we would like to skip Engagement ceremony. We get them wedded and send them off. We can relax after that."
My mom dad went aside. They didn't involve me. I was thinking.. these people are always full of surprises! I wasn't angry this time. I was OK. I like them all. Let them do whatever they want.
*After 5 minutes!
Everyone was congratulating each other. Anshu hugged me and she said, "Finally! Welcome to the family!". We smiled at each other.
*After 10 minutes!
Let's discuss on a day for the marriage. They started the discussion.
*After Lunch
Our marriage date was decided. April 10!
