Marriage is a destiny?

Some people believe that marriage is a destiny and many people in Kerala believe that it happens in heaven. Let me narrate a story of three software engineers they married almost same time.

There were three software engineers they studied together in the same college; once they graduated they decided to work for the same company. So they found a job in a software company  at Cochin, Kerala. One day one of them suggested that we should marry almost same time. Everybody agreed his suggestion and they all started looking for a bride. One of them found a girl through internet at Calicut which is almost five hours drive from his work place; they started long distance relationship and finally agreed to tie the knot. The second person was looking for a healthy or athletic girl which he found through a matchmaker site. The girl was from Kattapana which is also three hours journey from his work place. Finally they ended up in marriage. The third person approached his family to find a suitable girl for him. They recommend a girl from his local town; also she was highly educated. The third guy decided to marry the girl and he realized that she was a vegetarian person soon after the marriage.

  The three friends were married almost same time frame, one of them said " since we are friends, we should plan for a group camping, I can find a camp house somewhere in Munnar located at eastern part of Kerala". Everybody agreed his suggestion and all decided each person share the food. The person who married the girl from Kattapana said "I will bring red meat and alcohol for the gathering". The guy married the girl from Calicut said" my wife knows how to cook Biriyani and we will be responsible for Biriyani/fried rice". The guy who married vegetarian girl said "we will cook all the vegetable dishes."

They went for the camping in the following week; everyone cooked their dishes for the dinner. All women except the vegetarian dressed with night gowns for the dinner. The vegetarian dressed with a traditional Indian Sari; her husband said "you did not bring any night gowns”. She replied “you did not buy any dress for me?” The husband admitted that it was his fault. Next day they all spent time for outdoor activities, they were all exhausted at the evening. One of the husbands suggested that we need to go to a local bar and spend time over there. The husband of vegetarian woman said “they won’t serve any vegetarian food and my wife won’t able to order any food”. The vegetarian woman immediately interrupted and said “Don’t worry about me, I will find something to eat”. They all had wonderful time at the bar except the husband of vegetarian woman.

After several weeks, one of the husbands suggested that we should celebrate Onam feast and people will eat only vegetarian dishes on that day. He also suggested to Vegetarian woman’s husband “you guys are perfect for hosting the party”. The husband agreed and they call came dressed in Onam costume to his house for the lunch. The vegetarian woman and her husband hard time to prepare the dishes since both were too slow. The woman from Kattappana said "Since time is running out, we can help you in cooking”. The women from Kattappana and Calicut joined together and cooked another five vegetarian dishes in just an hour. The lunch was ready by noon and everyone enjoyed the food except the vegetarian woman’s husband. He was watching at other two wives way of cooking the dishes, at the same time he started to worry about his marital life, realized that something is falling apart.
