In the mood to complain:
K has always loved her coveted ‘single-and-emancipated’ status, however, there are times when she is at war with herself.
~ Times when friends can't make it to a planned pre-scheduled event, coz the hubby is out of town or mother-in-law is visiting or worse, the baby is sick.
~ Times when on an outstation holiday, she is compelled to share the spare bedroom with their nosy-parker kids.
~ Times when she sits at the tail end of the dinner table coz all the couples sit together.
~ Times when she baby sits really ill mannered screaming toddlers that she would gladly push down a flight of stairs, ( if she were guilt free).
~ Times when she is searing with anger at the cunning with which they cut her out from her plan. Poor K then makes them a meal, or checks on the house help, or just watches TV till they are ‘fully satisfied’.
~ K also does enough amount of lying for them, especially if either of them shops beyond the stipulated limit. It is to be understood that the extra is ‘gifted’ by her! The scene changes as partners complain about why they were not gifted or why was I spoiling their partner!
~ Times when her easy life, appears flippant and unstable for the married town whores.
~ Times when they criticize her for not having their problems and hence the lack of seriousness towards them.
~ Times when she is dragged into ‘him v/s her’ fight and she can not refuse to take sides. And when she does, K gets clearly blamed for the entire argument!
~ Friends don’t remain friends once they get married – they just become married people.
