Rajesh fell for Maya from day one when he joined the office. Maya took some time to reciprocate. They did not hide their feelings from the society, office or family. Everybody in the office accepted that this was an excellent pair. Every Weekend they had some programs like walking on the beach, going to a movie and having dinner together. Maya's Mom started asking about her plan of marriage. One day Mom said, "Rajesh and you have been courting for 2years now. I think you should marry now. I worry sometimes." Maya asked, "Why do you worry? I have heard, now breakups are a trend. Pairs do breakups very casually. I am concerned about you. I fear lest Rajesh should take undue advantage of you and leave. Maya consoled her mother, "Mom, Rajesh is not that type of a man. He is studying for an MBA to advance his career. His course will be completed by the end of Feb 2020 and we can marry in March The next day in the office, Maya discussed the matter with Rajesh. Rajesh held the hands of Maya and pulling her toward him said, "I can marry you any time. Even today I am ready. Maya said, "Be serious. I think we should not delay any further. My mom is worried because girls are more vulnerable." Rajesh said, " We will fix the marriage date In consultation with our parents and unburden them." Maya said "ok." The date was fixed on 30th March 2020. But destiny had to delay their wedding. The Novel Corona virus infected some people in China and then speedily spread in the world including India. This became a pandemic. Marriage became doubtful. On March 24, past midnight Rajesh called Maya and said in a dramatic style, "Ye Shadi Nahin ho Sakti and 21 dins tak Mujhse Milne ki koshish bhi mat Karna." Maya was aware of the countrywide lockdown so she said," You also don't try to meet me for the next three weeks. Mom, dad, and Maya were sitting in the drawing-room watching the news channel Aajtak on TV. A few minutes before PM Narendra Modi had announced three weeks' all India lockdown. Rajesh said to Maya," Give your phone to your mother." Maya gave her phone to mom saying, "Rajesh wants to talk to you." Rajesh said to Mayas Mom, "Mom, please don't worry, I will marry your daughter Maya after defeating and finishing this villain Coronavirus by social distancing remaining inside my home." Mom said, "Yes, God bless you son." And she returned the phone to Maya. Maya said, "Hello Rajesh. We can keep the distance and meet also." Rajesh," No, No, You don't try to come out of your house. Maya said, "No need of coming out. We can meet in cyberspace. When will the social sites be put to their better use? We can make video calls too. Rajesh said," Excellent." Maya said, "Thanks and good night." She disconnected the phone. Mom said, "We are late today We should go to bed now." They said good night to one another and went to sleep."
