109 What happened to my marriage?

"Grandma, I too know nothing about her. I asked her one day because mother told me to ask her. She replied to me that she had no one in her life."

"Oh Zinu, now I am tension free. Now I am assigning you a work. John's childhood friend Henry Davidson of city D attended the party yesterday along with his grandfather. His grandfather Mr.Davidson chose Dolly for his grandson. Mr Davidson is an old friend of Oliver." Mrs Smith added, "They did not leave the city yesterday. They will stay here for a week. Today Henry will come to meet Dolly. So, you have to prepare her mentally."

"Grandma, I heard a lot about this Henry. He is a good person. Did you tell Dolly about Henry?"

"No. I did not. You have to tell her. If she had no problem with the relationship, then we can engage them within one week. So you have to talk with her."

"Grandma, Dolly is an intelligent girl. I know she will make the right decision. You don't worry. I will speak to her."

"Do you know, he is the same guy, with whom Dolly danced yesterday. I am worried about her reaction towards him yesterday."

"Grandma, that was only a competition. You should not worried about it at all."

"Ok. You inform her that Henry would come here by ten o clock."

"Ok."

Zinu left Mrs Smith's room and directly went to Dolly's room. Today is a holiday. So everyone was relaxed and at home. She knocked on the door of Dolly's room.

"Yes, come in." She heard Dolly. She entered the room and sit in the bed. Dolly was doing something on her laptop.

"Dolly, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, only chatting with an online friend."

"ok. Can I take some of your time? I am here to speak to you."

"Yes. You need not take permission to ask me something. We are friends also. If you want to ask me about yesterday, then I am telling, yesterday I was nervous. I never looked at any stranger for a long time. So, I left."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. That's the reason."

"Dolly, I am here to say you something else."

"Something else? What is it?"

"I am here to tell you about your marriage."

"What happened to my marriage?"

"Grandma send me here. She as well as we all want you to get married soon. See Dolly, you are not becoming younger anymore. It is the perfect age for your marriage."

"Is it compulsory to marry? I can live alone peacefully."

"Dolly, I know you can live alone. But in our life, we need someone who loves and cares for us. We need someone to grow old together. We need someone with whom we can create a new life. We have our family with us all the time, but we need someone, who can be our soulmate. With whom we can share everything. Dolly, our life is short. We should not waste our life without love."

"But what if there is no love in between us, to whom we marry?"

"That is possible. If we marry an unknown person, it is a normal thing that there is no love between us. But we are human. We have to learn how to love. The love between two people is not defined by what they say or do. If your partner helps you by cook food for you when you are tired, that is love. If he cares your every need, that is love. Love is not that he needs to say it aloud. It can be seen with action. It develops slowly. When we two people live together, it is more likely to develop the love between two.

You can take my example. I did not know your brother, one month before my marriage. Although we met each other earlier, I forgot everything. Now you can see I madly love with him. I would not able to live without him. Dolly, you can also love to whom you will marry."

Zinu looked at Dolly. She said nothing. She lost in deep thought.

"Dolly, can I ask you a question?"Zinu asked after some thought.

"Zinu, I said before also. You need not take permission to ask me anything," Dolly replied.

"Do you have anyone in your life?"

"No."

"Are you sure? You never loved anyone!"

"No. I loved someone. But he cheated on me."

"What! You never told me this before. How can someone cheat a girl like you? He must be blind."

Dolly sighed.

"Zinu, I loved him very much.I...I love him till now. But he left me. He promised me a lot of things, but he himself broke his promise. I tried to get him back many times, but he told me that he never loved me. He broke up the relationship between us."

Zinu sat there speechless. She can see the tears in her eyes. She kept her hand on Dolly's shoulder. Dolly smiled. She wiped her tears and said.

"Zinu, tell grandma that I am ready to get married."

"Dolly are you sure? Don't take any decision in a rush. You have got time. It is a life long decision.If.....if your ex return and asks you to marry him? You love him. So, you should give him a chance again."

"Zinu, I do not want to give him any chance. And yes. He had returned. But how can I accept a cheater? He broke my heart. How can I say that he would not do it again? "

"But Dolly, maybe he had his own reason behind his action. Have you ever tried to know the reason?"

"I... I asked. But he did not reply. I think he had no valid reason behind it. I wasted my precious time on him already. I love him, but now it is impossible for us to get together."

"Is it your final decision? "

"Yes. If I have to marry someone, then I will. For whom I will wait?For the person,who never had any courage? "
