Selection

-Sumathi Shanmuga Sundaram

Both the sisters, Darshinin and Harini entered the famous jewellery shop along with their husbands. After much examination they selected one necklace!

Harini wore it on her neck and saw in the mirror. ‘It’s good!’ Darshini admired it. They told the man to prepare the bill for it. Then they entered the section where chains were on display.

For about half an hour they kept on examining various chains. After selecting one chain, Darshini wore it on her neck. Harini admired it.

They paid the money and came out with the jewels.

‘For selecting the jewel for your parents’ 60th wedding anniversary, you spent so much time! Had it been yours, how much time you’d have taken?’ Harini’s husband, Suresh made fun of his wife.

‘After mummy it is we who're going to inherit them. No brother is there! So we selected according to our taste!’
