Plan to kill me

It was cold and a quarter past six in the evening. 

He entered the room, hung his keys on the holder and looked around. I smiled at him and he acted as if he hasn't noticed me. I called his name, loud and clear, but it was of no use.

I stood behind him, but he acted as if I wasn't there. I sat on the couch for an hour beside him and he still did not talk to me.

The door bell rang and as soon as he opened, she flung onto him and started kissing. I then understood that she is responsible for his depraved behavior.

"Did you get all the money?" she asked.

"No. They require Karen's death certificate for transferring her money to my account" he said.

"My death certificate!" I jumped from the couch and saw myself in the mirror and I couldn't see myself.

By the time I realized, it was too late! I was just a puppet in their powerful plan to kill me and get my money. I should have know that dog and about his intentions before he married me.

The one with the proposal

Here goes my post:

"Julie, I'll be back in a couple of weeks" I said and left the place without even turning around. Not turning around was the most difficult part there.

I knew it would be practically difficult for both of us to be apart for two weeks but yeah, that was the part of the plan.

I came to my flat, packed the stuff and went to my home town to meet my family and to tell them about her. Everybody in my family were happy with my decision and they are ready to accept her into our family.

Now the most exciting thing to plan and implement is, how to propose her and that too a surprise proposal. I knew her answer but I wanted to make it special and surprise my love with my love.

I kept storming my brain for ideas and I finally found one.

But, for that plan to work I had to make a call to that person whom I wish I had never call, the dumbest one I ever met in this world. Long story short, she ate all the chocolates I sent to Julie on my last Valentine's Day, assuming that someone special sent it for her and was trying to propose her.

I made a call to her room mate and planned everything and this time I made it very clear, clear enough that you can see through it, that whatever is planned and whatever is going to happen is for Julie and not for her. Well, it had to be done because I want everything to go perfect.

I made all the arrangements and was going back to the city, the day before the Valentines's Day. It was six in the evening and she's still not back to her flat. I did not call her but I was expecting her to back to her flat any moment, so was her room mate. It was nine past and I started getting worried about her and I finally called her, pretending I was not in town and just called casually.

"Hey honey, where are you?" I asked. "I'm going home" she said. Oh my! I felt like everything I planned was going in vain. I called her room mate soon and said the same and she was surprised too because Julie informed no one.

I went back to my room and sat in despair that my plan did not work. I was trying to call her at sharp midnight to wish her a Happy Valentine's Day and she picked up and I said, "Happy Valentine' Day honey". "Happy Valentine's Day to you too" she said.

Soon my room mate asked me to come downstairs to introduce me to his Valentine and when I went down, I saw her standing in a red dress with long hair, beautiful smile and her mesmerizing eyes. It was all planned by her room mate. She called Julie back saying that I was back from my hometown with all the plans to propose her.

I went closer to her, went down on my knees and said, "Julie Grace, my love, will you marry me?"

"YES, YES, YES" she shouted and then we kissed and we made this bond even more stronger by the engagement ring on her finger.

Thanks to her room mate for making things right while everything was falling apart.

After everything, Julie's room mate came to me and said, "I loved those chocolates, by the way ;)"

By Now..!!

Every Life has a Story

I was going through the bunch of emails I received over the weekend and I'm going to share one of them.

This is not any professional email or a technical one. It conveys a message.

A message, which says that we should not judge whatever or whoever we see by the very appearance or the initial circumstances without actually knowing why is he/she/it is that particular manner.

Here goes the email:

A 24 year old guy seeing out from the train’s window shouted to his very old-looking father, “Dad, look the trees are going behind!”

Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 year old’s childish behavior with pity.

Suddenly he again exclaimed, “Dad, look the clouds are running with us!”

The couple couldn't resist and said to the old man, “Why don’t you take your son to a good doctor?”

The old man smiled and said, “I did and we are just coming from the hospital, my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today."

Every single person on the planet has a story. Don’t judge people before you truly know them. The truth might surprise you.

Thanks to my friend, Prem who blogs at Prem's Ledger for sending me this wonderful email.

Quikkrrr Quikr..!

This post is in response to It's just Quikr in Bangalore activity by Quikr - Bangalore at IndiBlogger.

You can get more information about Quikr and Quikr - Bangalore from the following link:

Here goes my post:

"Dear Ram,

Your relocation request has been approved and you are here by officially transferred to Optimized Solutions, Bangalore location.

Please get your clearance form approved by the respective teams by the end of this week.

Your official date of joining at Optimized Solutions, Bangalore location is Monday, February 01, 2015.

Let us know if you have any concerns!

Regards,

Jaya Ramesh Sundaran

Human Resources"

The email just gave me a surprise. Finally, my relocation request has been approved and it's time to shift to a place near to my home town.

I called my wife and said, "Honey, it is about we start packing our luggage."

"Ram, if this is one of your Switzerland jokes again, you might wanna find another place to sleep tonight" she replied in her lovely sweet voice.

"No, no, no, my relocation request to Bangalore location has been approved from my office and we can shift to Bangalore in next two tot three weeks. Isn't that cool? we've been planning for this since a long time and here we are, ready for Bangalore." I said.

"That's awesome! Come home early. We can plan everything over dinner and get things done quicker." she said.

"Yep. See you!" I said and cut the call.

I am happy for getting relocated but moving has always been painful and now it is not just moving but setting up a completely new home in Bangalore.

Furniture, television, refrigerator and what not. Thank God! As we were sure of being permanently settling down in Banagalore, we barely bought things at our current place. A little luggage to move and fortunately we have quikr.com to sell and buy stuff whenever we want, wherever we want and to/from whomever we want.

Now, the most important thing is the set things right at Bangalore. I went to http://bangalore.quikr.com/ and soon filtered my choice to real estate section, 2 BHK section and found a wonderful , independent 2 BHK for living at just rupees 11000 a month at Konanakunte and it is of the kind which I was exactly looking for. I called up the owner of the house using the contact information provided and booked the house for rent. The house was ready to move and we can move in whenever we want. 

Phew! Thanks to Quikr.com, things went smoothly.

It doesn't end here. Four walls and a roof cannot make home sweet home. I narrowed down my search to Home and Lifestyle and then booked a sofa set, a dining table, a television, wardrobes and lot more. I compared all the prices for the same products online at other websites and I was happy that I bought all of them at a reasonable dearer price or equal.

I went home that night and my darling had a lot of questions to shoot at me and before she could say anything, I handed her the list of things I already purchased to make the home at Bangalore a sweet home :)

"I love you!" is all she said after she went through the complete list.

Offer he couldn't refuse

I pulled out my gun and made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

He backed off!

Gave me a look.

She thanked all heavens and collected her clothes while I made sure he left.

I then asked, "Mam, are you alright?"

Love

Dear Love!

How are you? I seem to be so formal, don't I? But, seriously, how are you? It's been a long time we met, so I thought I should ask. I hope you are doing well. 

I know you might be surprised to see this letter. Even I was, when I finished writing it.  You see, we have a lot of things in common, don't we? That is what we used to tell ourselves when we fell in love with each other. Such wonderful days they were.

What do I do now? We are so busy with our office and our work that we don't find time to talk to each other. Oh yeah! We text almost every alternate day and sometimes we even talk once or twice a week. Thank God! We are at least doing that. Surprisingly, the most frequent contact on my phone, which few months ago was your's, but now it is someone else's. Initially, I blamed my phone's software for that. But, now I know that it's not my software's fault.

Did you check the email I sent you last week? I was actually planning to take some time out of my work in this January and try spending some romantic time with you. What do you say? I know you don't like me spending money like this. But I just tried, like I always do. Please don't be mad at me for this. I was just looking for some quality time. You are right, we can do this after our wedding too and then as you always tell, no one would question us when we are married.

By the way, thank you for the present you sent me on my birthday..!! I was really surprised and there were almost tears in my eyes. Okay! Okay! No more sarcasm. But, I was a little upset at you for forgetting my birthday. I saw your apology text the next day and I then understood how busy you were with your cousin's wedding. I wore that jeans that you gifted me on my last birthday and surprisingly it still fits me!

I was actually looking at our pictures we took when we first met and the memories of our journey of love till now. Do you remember, how we used to pose for our selfies. Oh man! I miss them now. Do send me a selfie after you read this letter.

Waiting to meet you!

Lots of Love!

Start this fresh

"I was waiting for your call the whole day and I was dying to talk to you!" he said.

"I'm sorry honey, I was surrounded by people in the party and I did not notice the time." I said.

"Right! Surrounded by people." he nodded.

"Honey, I thought of calling you" he took his coat "after reaching home." I tried to explain.

"Good bye!" he said and this time he did not even give me a chance to ask if we can start this fresh.
