#StartANewLife
Marrying young has its down downfalls and comes with a lot
of responsibility. Moving out from my cozy room where I stored thousands of
books and so much space to even have a over flowing wardrobe, I just had to
marry an army officer. The house was a two bed house with a small kitchen and I
had my reservations on how my stuff will adjust anywhere at all. But I warmed a
bit and pulled my sleeves up, determined to make my bare house, a home. It
started all with a lot of gusto, getting the curtains up, the sofas set and the
new LED television in our bedroom. The kitchen where only I wipped out my
Hyderabadi recipies, I realized that moving out of my parents home was the best
thing that had happened to me. Not that I didn’t miss them, but because I had
so much to learn here. My friends in Hyderabad had already moved away and my
only friend was my husband now. Talking over the phone for hours was not my
thing anyway.
The time came when we bought brand new gadgets and life was
getting comfortable with just the two of us. But a tragedy stroked and while we
were on a vacation, our house got burgled. It wasn’t horrible to see your
things splattered all over the place and the things we bought just taken away
from us. The culprits were no where to be found. I felt naked, as if my life
was out in the open now, seen my some petty strangers. My tears were soon wiped
and my husband took me for a quick shopping outside. We couldn’t afford to buy
new stuff anymore but thanks to EMI, we did get by. I remember how strong I had
to be for both of us and because I had to forgive those people and move on with
my life.
We still had so many places to see though. And after two
years in Jalandhar, we moved to Madhopur, setting up our house again. Starting over
and cheering to new beginnings. We had our first baby here and the house became
special to me as I lovingly decorated the little teddies around the house in
blue. My writing career was taking off
too and I was a freelancer for a children’s magazine. It filled me with
happiness and anticipation when we moved again to Orissa for my husband’s study
course. The beach and the fresh air did us good and as a couple we just got
stronger and setting up a house now became a very easy process, knowing where
everything had to go. With a baby on tow, I carried him around and made sure
that no matter where we lived, our lived will always be happening and new.
