India Day 3 - Two Quick Girls

The next morning I had to be up early to meet with two different girls in two different cities. The first appointment was at Ord with a girl named Pooja. When my driver took me to the place, I found myself in a Large Mansion like home. Outside sat five large men, all dressed in different attire, but one stood out as the Don. When I greeted these people, it felt has if I was walking in to the Sopranos. And the head person, Pooja’s father was Tony Soprano. Here I met with the father ‘Tony’ and the 4 different uncles. Luckily my parents and my siblings were there to help out the situation. After chit chatting with them for 5 minutes, they decided we should all leave and go to there second home where Pooja was sitting and waiting for me.

Come to find out that this family owns a large tobacco company, where they sell packets of chewing tobacco to the country of India. They had a lot of money, A LOT OF MONEY, on the way to the other home; it felt like I was in a police escort. People stopped, and stared at me from all different directions. When I finally met Pooja, we talked for about 5-10 minutes, and I realized that she wasn’t interested in helping our family grow and expand our home business. She was too use to the fact that her father had handed her everything in her life, and that she wasn’t use to manual labor. So I left knowing I was going to say no to her and her family.

The next girl I met, I actually don’t remember her name either, but we literally met 30 minutes after I met Pooja. She was nice, but I didn’t feel the click that I imagined I would feel when all this was going on. When we left, I went home and took a nap for 2-4 hours and got ready for the Vharghodo.
