Recently i went to home to do my sister's Engagement, a day before ( My dad and uncles did almost all the arrangements) .
When i reached home, not even a second mom told me you have to go to each houses of the area around us and invite them to the Engagement. As usual i said No. ( who born last in house will be having lesser responsibilities eg; Me)
No not only you , go with kakki(Uncle's wife) and Atti(Dad's sister) mom told me .
I said okay (It was at 8 am). Mom told , by 9.30 am you should be ready to go with them . But kakki and atti had different plan . Since morning i was waiting ....
at-last ! 6 pm they said lets go . First they trained me ,
1. you should tell to gents and we will tell to ladies .
2.you should tell like " my sister's engagement tomorrow in Virashaiva Kalyana Manthapa @ 12.30 pm please come along with your family " and at last give a smile .
3. respectively ask them to come.
Problem with me is
1. I don't know much people around my house.
2.I don't call uncle ,aunt , brother etc.(Except my family members )
3.I never been to their houses which i am going for and I am weak in communicating specially to my neighborhood people they thought that i am the simplest lad in the area .

First we went to "Gongadis" house there vishwanath mom was there ,i never used to call Atti . But that day i called (she was smiling) and invited "my sister's engagement tomorrow in Virashaiva Kalyana Manthapa @ 12.30 pm please come along with your family " and at last gave a smile .
she told me Nagesha Change aagidane ( Nagesh is changed!).
Next went to other houses of Gongadis Vathara . Remembered my childhood once i was playing with those people who were all grown .
One girl came to A & K and started asking them to put Kumkum to her forehead (As it was a routine to invite ladies ).
But I felt something or someone was missing.
*******
Later went to HaalBhavi's house , in their house more than humans Buffaloes were there in the house . Atti and kakki stopped me , we will tell . And asked them Gandasaru idaraa ? (Any males are there ?) . No one was there . then we moved to other houses in same Haal Bhavi's Vathara .Few asked kakki who is he ? (!!!) .
