Chapter 26 - Be strict

The alarm was an ear-splitting wail. It rose to a peak and then ebbed and rose to a peak again, undulating like a wave and all the while ringing her brain out like a sponge. The glare of the morning sun hit her eyelids to awaken her.

Turning of the alarm Ananya moved closed to her husband and snuggled into his chest.

The metallic clatter of pots and vessels, the aroma of seasoning from the kitchen next door. These are the usual morning greetings when the houses are too close to each other.

Mornings are not as cold as you would probably wake up to, you clutching and holding onto a cuddle worthy human. Ananya's hand moved around Vivek's, warm and soft body. In seconds, her body is moulded to his, sharing her body heat.

"I don't want to wake up," Ananya mumbled, pulling the comforter closer.

My Husband Chapter 1 - 10

Once upon a time, men and women entered marriage with very clear policies regarding the division of labour: he would go to work and "bring home the bacon," while she would stay at home and cook, clean, and raise the children. Things aren't the same as they used to be. Modern Indian romance, intimacies, and marriages are far more complicated than assessments and reality television shows portray. In India, arranged marriages are an unique and complex process. People seek a 'soulmate' with whom they can spend the rest of their lives, but they also have specific expectations of the potential bride or groom. There is a strong narrative about finding love, compatibility, and connection, but what stands out is a real intent to replicate class identities beneath all of this. In a country that depends on a spending population, "middle class" is a necessary armour, a shared language, a value system, and, more importantly, a way of life. Life may be unjust, irritating, and disarmingly disappointing on most days. Being middle class, on the other hand, creates character in a culture obsessed with the need to be a part of the rat race. Marriage also places the onus of making sacrifices, concessions, and making the marriage work on the couple. This tale illuminates the unseen and underappreciated aspects of an Indian arranged marriage, the life of a middle-class wife and husband and their shared responsibilities as they navigate through life. Immense amount of desi tadka awaiting your way. *I don't own the illustration on the poster.*
