There was a girl of 15, who always
expected something in return
of everything she did.
She got good grades in the exams,
But she expected even more
and always felt sad on getting
less than she expected.
This went on and
she never got marks and grades
more than expected or even as much as expected;
It was always four to five marks less than expected.
Years rolled by and she turned 18.
She fell in love with a boy who was
six months younger than her.
The boy loved her too.
But again she started making expectations.
She expected his texts and calls,
His being online on Whatsapp,
And when he didn't show up,
Or texted or called her
At the time she expected
She came to near frustration.
She didn't express her frustration or anger
In front of the boy though,
Because she loved him very much
And his fair and handsome face
Made her to forget everything.
Months and years passed.
She still loved the boy,
And the boy loved her too.
She was 24 now and so was the boy.
Both of them were very hard working
And made good progress in their careers.
The love they shared was constructive.
Constructive in the sense,
They inspired each other to work hard
To achieve success.
At this age they had their cars and their homes,
And they got married with each other.
Even after marriage she kept expectations
From the boy, now her husband. Expectations
To come home early and take her to a restaurant
Or a romantic candle light dinner.
And when he didn't do anything of this kind,
She, again became unhappy.
One day, fed up with this every day story
Of her expectations getting shattered,
She decided that that day she won't make any expectations
And see what does she gets in return.
That very same eve, her love gave her
A soft kiss on her soft cheeks
And asked her to get ready for going
To the best restaurant of their city.
She was surprised at that
And , "Darling, you look so beautiful
When you smile with amazement",
Said her husband to her.
Always remember dear friends,
Expectations are important
But not always.
And the day you'll leave all the
Unnecessary expectations
You'll be happy
Because you look even more sweet
And handsome
And pretty
When you smile with amazement,
When you get something out of nowhere.
