If that is all you want to hear..

Two siblings, a girl and a boy at the beach:
(Girl building a sand castle and boy playing cricket with his friends a few meters away)
The ball suddenly comes and hits the castle and it collapses.
(Boy comes running to get the ball)
Looks at the broken castle and his angry sister and realizes he is in trouble.
Boy: Oops, I am sorry sis.
Girl: Is it! Fine then, take this.
Girl throws the ball away into the sea.
Boy (furious): Crazy girl. I told you I am sorry. And it is not my ball.
Girl: Well it was my castle though! And oh!!! If that solves everything, then I am sorry too bro.
(Both look towards the sea and the ball raising and falling with the water)



A girl and boy (madly in love) at the restaurant:
Boy: You order, I pay
Girl: Not fair, you always do that.
Boy: I love doing that
Girl: I love you loving doing that.
(Boy smiles)
(Girls smiles back)

After some time..
Boy pays the bill, leaves a hundred rupee note as tip.
Girl: Is that much required?
Boy: That is ok, we had a lovely time. It is worth that smile of yours.
Girl (frowning) : Now?
Boy: What is wrong with you?
Girl: What is wrong with me! All I am saying is that it is exorbitant and unnecessary. And you think something is wrong with me?!? Great!!!
Boy realizes he is in trouble.
(Both leave without making a scene)

While walking back..
Boy: Sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you.
Girl: But you did.
Boy: I said I am sorry.
Girl: Fine, if that solves everything, then I am sorry too.
(Both don’t speak for the rest of the walk)



Newly wed husband and wife at market:
Wife: Bhaiyya, bhendi kaise?
Sabji waala (let us call him Ganesh): 12 Rupaiyya pav
Wife: Kya bol rahe ho bhaiyya, main kya pehlli baar lene aayi hu. Dus rupaiyye mein dete ho toh do.
Ganesh: Nahi memsaab, kahi bhi aur aapko bhendi nahi milegi. Aaloo chahiye toh lelo, dus nahi, 8 rupaiyya mein lelo.
Husband holding a heavy bag full of already bought vegetables gets impatient.
Husband: It is just 2 re yaar, just give it to him and finish it. I already had a bad day at work arguing with my boss over the sales index of our product, now I am in no mood to listen to him speak about the sales index of bhendi.
Wife: Why are you shouting at me?
Husband realizes he is in trouble.
Husband: I am sorry, let us go home please..
Wife: I didn’t come to stay with you leaving my parents to hear your loud voice.
Husband: I said I am sorry. And you should understand that after office I am generally not in a mood for such tasks.
Wife: Ok, will not ask for it in future. And yeah, if that solves everything, then I am sorry too.
(They come home, wife enters the kitchen and husband sits in front of the TV, both lost)



Shit!!! Women are unreasonable!!! Or complicated maybe..

The guy realizes he made a mistake and apologizes for it instantaneously..
But the girl fails to understand it and goes one step ahead and mocks at his sorry.

The guy is hurt. He really meant it when he said sorry. He is broken by the fact that his beloved fails to understand that.

The girl might have sounded unreasonable. But she was too hurt by the first statement to be reasonable after that. And in fact I pity the girl. Her state is so helpless that she cannot even say a meaningful sorry now!

The fact that the two still hold on to each other in spite of infinite such issues speaks in itself. Both love each other and value the relation too much to be affected by such issues.

And in the end, it is not “sorry” what one wants to hear. It is something else..



With love..
