of marriage preparations

Marriage with Prasad was confirmed. While giving send off to me my father asked if the boy was ok for me. Before I started to Nellore to see him, my mother told me not to say yes if I really did not like the boy.We will see other matches. THis is not the end. So I went with a free mind. I liked him and I was sure he too liked me.I answered my father in affirmative that he could proceed in that matter.I was alone at Guntur. My mother told me to buy red and green bangles in dozens. To get stitched white blouse with red border. Like that small small things which I had to do. I used to go alone after coming from bank to shops and search for bangles and other things. Tailor was making undue delay in giving the blouses, I used to sit opposite him ,like in dharna , to get my blouses stitched. He used to request me to go home and come next day.I was afraid that he would not complete by the time I had to leave for Nellore for marriage.My father bought me two big hankies--one with red checks and the other had blue design over it. H e bought me belt shoes with high heels. I purchased big ear rings and silver anklets for marriage.I felt very smart.I was afraid Prasad would be disappointed once he knew that wear glasses.I had short sight.when he came to see me I did not wear them.But he never took that issue seriously.
