Wear Ware

The 'Little India', Singapore was much crowded that evening. It was almost like an Indian metro flooded with people all over. Karthik and Humairah were walking very close to each other. The gap must be as little as an inch. The unmatchable artistic silver ware, brass ware, crafty ethnic jewellery, silk saris shop and other Indian works dominated the scene.

"If Vaishu accompanied us, you can shop a lot. I am not good when it comes to jewellery or saris."

"Vaish has to look after aunty, isn't it?" As Humairah was telling this to Karthik, her eyes and mind targeted jewellery. Karthik understood that and took her to the shop. Humairah enjoyed the artistic beauty of that 'gimmicky' (earring). Karthik settled the shop owner before Humairah could even think of buying it. Humairah pretended to be angry "How much is this, Karthik?" Karthik walked out of the shop silently and Humairah followed him with packed earring.

Karthik stopped near a flower shop and bought a jasmine garland. "Humairah, most of the traditional south Indian girls especially 'Tamil' girls wear this on their head" Karthik said and gave it to her.

Humairah smelled it "Fabulous. How to wear this?" she asked. She tried to fix it on her hair and it fell on Karthik's hand. He fixed it on her hair. Karthik later felt sentimental about that, since only a husband can do that to his wife. But that absolutely had no impact on Humairah. Then they moved on to the Henna Tattoo centre and Humairah's hand and palm were glorified there. Humairah was excited about her hand being decorated.

"It's more famous in Pakistan and India" said Karthik.

Humairah enjoyed every second in 'Little India'. They had a vegetarian dinner in a south Indian restaurant. Humairah, in a jewellery shop, took a piece of crafty ethnic jewellery.

"Karthik, this is fantastic." Karthik smiled "This is 'Thali' worn by Hindu women in the marriage knot on wedding and is never removed in life time. If you need it, shall I tie you the knot?" he joked.

To his shock, Humairah blushed "yes". What would a London girl know about Indian life style? They again stopped near a tea stall to have 'Teh Tarik', a hand pulled cup of tea.

April 14th evening passed very sooner than it actually was. Humairah is now seriously attracted to Karthik. She turned her diary in the night. April 14th was already filled with 'Little India'. On April 15th page, she wrote 'China Town', on April 16th page 'Geylang Serai' and on 17th page 'Kampong glam'. She assigned a 'question mark' on 18th and wrote "How will I manage to leave Singapore. I'll miss a lot", on 19th of April page. Now her diary has gone crazy.

How can one change in an evening? It is not this evening alone that changed Humairah's mind. It started long back in London on Shelvi's apartment. Even before that, fate has fixed its plot. Karthik and Humairah are born for each other. It is 'Nature', who is the superior ruler in this world.

Vaishnavi and Humairah had long chats during the night. The topic was 'Journalism Conference' at times, 'Countries and cultures' at other times and 'Karthik', most of the times. Humairah was eager to know more and more about Karthik. But she was intelligent in sourcing inputs from Vaishnavi without revealing her intentions. She understood Karthik and Vaishnavi had common interests. Both of them loved Illayaraja's * and yanni's music. Both of them loved South Indian Vegetarian food. Both of them had spiritual mind. Karthik loved cricket and Tennis, but Vaishnavi doesn't know much about sports. Humairah started analyzing what is common between Karthik

and herself. Humairah always fancied Winston Churchill's speeches, David Becham's Manchester United, Bernard Shah's critics, Maurice devareuh's Researches on evolution and earlier Pink Floyd's music and heavy metal crashes and the recent addition to this is 'Karthik'.
