I'm going to make this intro real quick.
Hi, I'm Sara Jothi.
I don't stick to a particular thing to write on
but if you have to shelf me, I'd like for you
to tag me a 'storyteller'. That's what I enjoy
most. And if a story is what excites you
then I may have a chance impressing you.
I'm a lover of beach, silence, love and
family. My profile reeks of it all in English
and Tamil. Smell it?

Check out the caption for my series
hastags, it'll make your search
a little easy.

Dear future hubby,
I'm sorry, I'll be late to family dinners and maynot even show up for brunches. You'd be put to make excuses for me, repeatedly. Mind you, if present I wouldn't know how to do a small talk. I wouldn't bat an eye to talk about innards and the like while forking down my meal. That'll be me, being me. But, people may cringe; which is why I'll not talk unless spoken to. Don't take it for rudeness. Know I'm concerned for your appetite and other's as well. That'll be me trying to be a good wife/daughter-in-law.

Dear future hubby,

This, I ask of you. Be the guy to hold little grudges; I'd like to woo my man, please. Be the one that hates it best to see me leave; let me treat you to angst, please. Be the one to unapologetically take what you want from me. The one to give whatever it takes to hold us strong, by whatever means. Be a little selfish, ask for most of my time. A little aloof and let me watch you in my time. Be the planner, so I could mess you a bit. Also, be a little careless with me. Because eventually I'd love to steal your heart, please!

-

Dear future hubby,

Do yourself a favor and do not compare yourself with my dad, you'll always fall short. Do me a favor and don't compare me to your mother, I'll never make it close.
Be you and let me be me in our parallel ways, bound by vows and together by choice, in love incomparable!

-

Dear future hubby,
Let's make a pact. Let's not dump each other's baggage onto the other. It's not fair to you to be treated badly and misinterpreted for my issues, just as much as it's unfair to me to bear the brunt of your issues. Also, let's just give ourselves some time to become 'us' and refrain from throwing around ultimatums. I mean, why bother when we have our whole life to fight and make up? Why rush and mess it up!

-

Dear future hubby,
I'm no fair skinned maiden. So no, don't look for crimson on my dusky cheeks when you get me in sight. Look at my eyes, watch them go dark, catch them flare in light.. I hope you to read in them, how happy I'm to come home to you. Because, wherever you are.. that'll be home!

-

To the man,
who was meant to be
my first love.

• Letters- Forever •

In the trend of writing texts and emails, I keep sending letters to him. And I admire how patiently my inamorato waits for them, every month end. I conscientiously hold my pen, dive deep into emotions and smoothly draw a few carefully chosen words for him. No, I'm not afraid of making mistakes, I'm aware that here my mistakes shall never go unnoticed but intriguingly he never said it's wrong. So, I quietly strikethrough and move on. I mention about the poems I wrote in recent years, the pictures I clicked last month, friends I met in the past week and that coffee I had the other day. He knows all I say but I still say all he knows.
Do you know what the best thing about a letter is ? The older
it gets the fresher your memories attached to it remain.
It keeps you alive. Sometimes, even gives you a new life.
My letters to him, I re-read them aloud while lying on his lap,
giggling and wondering how much more could I have poured
my heart out ?

"Each day ; dawn to dusk.
You tell me things of love.
You tell me all about us.
I know you love me.
I know you crave to know if I do.
I hear you each time.
And I gently stay hush.
Leaving you amidst the blusy chaos.
Of a maybe and a maybe not.
I smile a little. I mock a little.
And then, you see me all quiet

But;
Every night, I write of you.
There isn't any way better I find.
To love you a little more than what I do."
