the folder on the desktop

it says "boys for t", and i can't remember if i named it that or someone else did. surely it is the sort of thing i would remember?, she asks. i don't want to be looking at profiles of good indian boys looking for a life partner. i don't want anybody but you. there, i said it. sure, i'm stupid, and crazy, and that's possibly the worst idea i've ever had - wanting someone i've never seen, met or spoken to. and my sister asked about you, she said what about him, and i regret that everyone knows everyone knows everyone knows.
(it's not a pure saying, but it's true)

oh, woe. in a year i will be settled with a husband and a house and all my regrets. what will you have?
