Our story
Two buses of baraatis, one blue scooter and twenty-five winters in Dehradun.
2002
14 February, in Kotdwar. Two buses of baraatis left Dehradun and one arrived on time. The other came in time for dinner. Papa did not know it was Valentine's Day. Mummy did.
2003
A rented two-room set in Dalanwala and a blue scooter. Every Sunday they rode to Sahastradhara with a tiffin of aloo paranthe between them.
2007
Ishita came in 2004 and Aryan in 2007. The scooter retired. Nobody has slept late on a Sunday since.
2027
The same two people. Papa has a little less hair, Mummy has a few more opinions, and they still share one cup of chai at six every morning. Now it is our turn to throw the party.
