When I left my house for the first time and went to my in-laws’ house

In-laws’ house is an unknown place, when I got ready to leave my house and go to my in-laws’ house, I did not like it at all when I had to leave my house.

There was a new place, new people, I was not able to understand how I would live with them.

I did not know how much I would have to change myself when I got bound by the customs and traditions there.

Earlier I used to live freely but now I had to walk with a pallu on my head.

Walk slowly, speak slowly, eat when the elders in the house have eaten, no matter how hungry you are.

I missed my home a lot. It didn’t feel right to meet anyone so soon. I missed my friends and my family a lot.
