She Did

She worked very hard to find the right husband, I must say. She went to temples, she went to engineering college, she learned to cook and sew and tell funny jokes. And she learnt to flutter her eyelashes just so.

And she went on a diet and she lost weight, and bought the prettiest of saris. And thought to herself, I am quite a smartie to be doing all this.

Did it work? I do not know. But a good husband she did get.
