Chi took a break from work... a much deserved break at that. And decided to just laze around and enjoy the good life.
Her family had other plans. A break, for some reason, wasn't sweet music to their ears. Chi's grandparents in particular were most concerned about their deviant descendant.
Grandmother: "Chi! Have you started attending interviews? You've been sitting at home for four days now"
Chi: "Ammumma!! I'm not going for any interviews!! I don't want to work now!! I'm just gonna eat and drink and enjoy being 25!"
Grandmother to relatives: "Chi's sitting at home and trying to put on weight.. She's too thin to get married, you see.."
Grandfather to relatives: "Chi's hunting online for work.. but nothings working out. poor thing.."
(Cut to a few months later)
Grandfather: "Chi! I heard you cleared an interview. Whats the job like?"
Chi: "Ummm.. its someting to do with mobile VAS, Achacha... remember those messages from Vodafone regarding your bill or some contests they have? Something relating to that.."
Grandfather to relatives: "That girl is calling up complete strangers and asking for money!"
(Cut to a few days ago)
Grandmother: "Chi! Dont put all this on Bharat Matrimony.. We'll just tell them you are a nice school teacher or something. Dont worry, you'll get over this phase.."
Chi(undertone): "Where's a drink when you need it?"
