Family get together..All masi, mama, mami, cousins in one house..Isn’t it fun..Well I am not here exactly talking about family get together, I am talking about that loving DRAMA which happens when we all are leaving. :-D
Whenever I and mom are leaving from my masi’s, mama’s or some other relative’s house, there is this tradition in my family, that they give either money or some gift. Each and every masi, nani, mama, mami come and try to push a 500 rupee note into my pocket. And I say “ Arey nahi, aise thodi na. Iski kya zaroorat hai.", and all that. I know that I have to do this drama for 2 minutes maximum and then accept the gift, ultimately.
Sometimes, I thought this drama is pointless. So, I simply accept the money or gift at first. Whereas, my mother is busy with her drama of not willing to accept. And when my mother sees that I am not doing it, she comes and does it on my behalf as well. "Arey ek ko de diya na, kaafi hai.", and slightly pushes the gift away. Whereas I sit with my hands in the position of catching a ball from the sky. I ultimately do get the gift. So, my mom uses all her energy in vain.

This entire giving-ranting-pushing-pulling-screaming-kissing-scratching-winking-smiling-taking episode goes on for 10 whole minutes. It is fun. But pointless. Seriously.
It’s funny too. I mean, both the sides know that this ALWAYS happens. But STILL both of them do it with all their might.
Interesting, isn't it. :-)
