from previous...

....she felt her ammi and baba were  behaving  odd for quite some days,  soon  her suspicions  got cleared up after her finals,   one of tge matrimonial proposals  was accepted,  mir salik was an only brother to  his two married sisters to to two brothers in Italy,  their children were still small,   sisters were working women,  mir  salik s mother insisted they returned home  who  eagerly  expected  salik to quickly get married,  they lived in their family home  and had a sixteenth grade government job, he looked alright,  ammi showed  rahman his picture  , she looked at it carefully  to finally make a comment he didn't look a hero but  she was ready to make a hero out of him 
Bhayya naughtily  said  or she could turn the groom to zero 
Baba thought aloud he had full faith in his daughter  who  was educated  well and practical and  sensible  and definitely  deserved  happiness in life  she would work for,  baba patted  her shoulders  and rahman turned to look at her brother  and  pulled  her imaginary  collars high stiffening her neck  twenty two and  already  completed her studies  that was the most proper thing to do ammi argued 
Baju   next morning  was told who thought  rahman  was too immature to get married so soon though 
Baju wanted rahman should be given more time to enjoy  her carefree  unmarried life  at her parents house 
Rahmin  said she would enjoy life after marriage to which baju  thought otherwise  that  married life was not meant for enjoying  oneself but it was a commitment  to follow  a disciplined  life and perform  duties  and shoulder responsibilities  to make your marriage work
