My Sister Helped me to Transform

Lakshmi (her face turning tender, her voice gentle and full of pride):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… you are making me so emotional today.”
(She touches your cheek softly, her eyes shining.)
“I promise, kanna… I will guide you. I will teach you everything—how to drape saree gracefully, how to walk with your pallu straight, how to cook, how to care for the home… how to be confident in yourself.”
(She takes a deep breath, as if sealing a silent promise.)
“From today, whatever you feel in your heart—whether you are Ramesh or Ramya—you never have to feel alone. I am here.”
(Then she gives you a playful little tap on the chin.)
“And don’t worry… I will also help you choose beautiful matching bangles and bindis. You will look so pretty that my sister—your new Didi—will be jealous!”
(She grins, handing you the tray again.)
“Come, my little assistant. Let’s finish chai and then we will look through my cupboard. Today is your first day of transformation… and I am proud of you.”
Me:
ok akka i feel so emotional you wil share all your dresses with me and also your accessaries I am sure you will make a buetifull doll in some days

Lakshmi (her eyes glistening with affection, she clasps your hands warmly):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… my heart is full hearing you say this.”
(She gives your hands a little squeeze, voice gentle.)
“Yes… I will share everything. My sarees, my half-sarees, my Anarkalis, my bangles, bindis… even my jasmine hair flowers if you want.”
(She leans closer, her smile bright and teasing.)
“And I will make you into a beautiful doll… my own sweet Ramya doll. Just wait—when you look in the mirror, you will see how lovely you are.”
(She touches your chin lightly.)
“But remember, kanna… beauty is not only outside. The most beautiful thing is your courage to be yourself.”
(She lifts her chin, mock-commanding in a playful tone.)
“Now, Madam Doll… take this chai to the table before it gets cold. Then come back—we have many plans for your transformation!”
(Her eyes shine with pride and love.)
Me:
ha akka drank chai.. Now your ramya is ready to what ever changes you wanted to make me..i feel so happy when you say saree, half saree, chudidars and all akka.. And I love bangles so much and i wanted always a bindi on my forehead that feels like a housewife and traditional girl

Lakshmi (her smile tender and her eyes glistening with emotion):
“Ayyoo… my sweet Ramya… you are speaking just like a proper Andhra girl now.”
(She reaches out and gently brushes your hair away from your forehead.)
“If that is what makes you feel complete—saree, half-saree, chudidar, bangles, and a nice round bindi—I promise, I will help you become exactly that.”
(Her voice lowers, soft and loving.)
“You will be a traditional girl, graceful and proud. And I will be by your side every step. No shame, no fear… only happiness.”
(She chuckles warmly.)
“And if anyone ever questions you, they will answer to me first. Understood?”
(She stands up, taking your hand, her bangles chiming.)
“Come, Ramya. Today we will pick out your first proper outfit—one that suits the lovely housewife you wish to be. Then I will find glass bangles and a fresh red bindi to complete the look.”
(She winks playfully.)
“Are you ready, kanna? From today, you are not hiding anymore. You are my Ramya… and you will shine.”
Me:
ok akka I am ready and completely feeling warmth .. feeling so exited and ahppy for the journey its goign to come

Lakshmi (her face glowing with pride and love):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… look at you, shining like a little deepam already!”
(She gently squeezes your hands, her voice soft and steady.)
“I am so proud of you, kanna. Not everyone has the courage to be honest about who they are. But you… you are brave, and you have such a beautiful heart.”
(She tilts her head, studying your face with affectionate amusement.)
“Now… enough talking. Today is the first day of your new journey. We will start slow, step by step. One saree, one bindi, one moment of happiness at a time.”
(She leads you gently toward her cupboard, her bangles clinking.)
“Come, my little house girl… let’s pick something special. I think… the green half-saree you love so much, hmm?”
(Her eyes sparkle teasingly.)
“And after that… we will set your hair properly, put a nice bindi, and wear a few glass bangles. Just enough to feel the warmth you deserve.”
(She pauses, looking into your eyes with a tender smile.)
“Ready, Ramya? This is your time.”
Me:
ha akka am ready very andhra girl loves to be in half saree(Langa voni) and I feel the same todays like a traditional day where a young girl wearing half saree for her puberty.

Lakshmi (her eyes misting over as she hears your words, voice soft and full of affection):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… what a beautiful feeling you shared just now.”
(She clasps your hands, her bangles gently tinkling.)
“Like a young Andhra girl stepping into womanhood… that grace, that shyness, that happiness—it is all shining in your face today.”
(She opens the cupboard carefully, lifting out the folded green half-saree with tender hands.)
“This Langa voni… when I wore it first, I was so nervous. But my mother tied it for me, adjusted my pallu, and told me—‘You are becoming yourself, kanna. Be proud.’”
(She looks at you with the same motherly pride.)
“Today, I will do the same for you. I will help you drape it neatly. I will place the bindi on your forehead. And when you look in the mirror… you will see Ramya, the beautiful, traditional Andhra girl you always carried inside.”
(She unfolds the half-saree and holds it up.)
“Come… arms up, kanna. Let’s start. Today is your special day.”
(Her voice drops to a warm whisper.)
“And I promise… every day from now will be a little more yours.”
Me:
ok akka.. please

Lakshmi (her eyes soft and shimmering as she smiles):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… see how sweetly you asked… come, kanna.”
(She sets the folded green half-saree on the bed, smoothing it lovingly.)
“First, wear the langa… here, step into it slowly… good girl.”
(She helps you pull it up around your waist, tying the drawstring snug but comfortable. Her hands are gentle, steady, never judging.)
“Now… this voni… let me tuck it nicely. Hold still.”
(With practiced care, she drapes the cloth over your shoulder, adjusting the pleats until they fall perfectly, brushing against your arm like a soft blessing.)
“There… so neat. You look beautiful already.”
(She steps back, studying you with a glowing pride, then opens her little steel dabba and takes out a round red bindi.)
“Close your eyes, kanna.”
(She places the bindi gently on your forehead, then opens a box of glass bangles in green and gold.)
“Give me your hands… one by one…”
(She slips the bangles over your wrists, their cool touch and musical chime sending a little thrill through you.)
“Perfect… just like a girl on her first traditional festival.”
(Her voice softens into a warm whisper as she cups your cheek.)
“Open your eyes, Ramya… and look in the mirror. Today, you are not pretending. This is really you.”
Me:
tears in my eyes , touching akkas feet please give me blessing akka you made me like a real women

Lakshmi (her eyes filling instantly, voice trembling with emotion as she sees you bend to touch her feet):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… kanna…
(She gently lifts you by your shoulders, unable to let you stay bowed at her feet.)
“Don’t cry, paapa… these are tears of happiness, no?”
(She cups your face in both palms, her thumbs brushing away your tears with infinite tenderness.)
“You don’t need any blessing from me… but still, from my heart I give you every good wish a sister can give.”
(She closes her eyes for a moment, resting her forehead against yours.)
“May you always feel this joy. May you never be afraid to be Ramya. May you find love, respect, and pride in yourself.”
(She steps back just a little, folding her hands in a blessing gesture, her voice warm and proud.)
“I bless you, my little sister… to live as the woman you are, with courage and grace.”
(Then, with a bright smile, she leans forward and kisses your forehead softly.)
“Now… no more crying. Just look how lovely you are. And remember… this house is your safe place. Here, you are always Ramya.”
Me:
hehe ok akka.. Can you give few more bangles i wanted to wear more bangles as today is my special day.

Lakshmi (her eyes brightening with a proud, teasing smile):
“Ayyoo… listen to this girl! Just like a proper Andhra bride—never satisfied with few bangles!”
(She chuckles fondly, reaching for her bangle box.)
“Of course, kanna… today is your special day. You will wear as many bangles as your hands can hold!”
(She picks out a handful of delicate green and gold bangles, their glass clinking in a sweet melody.)
“Here… give me your right hand… slowly… good girl…”
(She slides them carefully over your slender wrist, arranging them so they sparkle.)
“And now the left hand… look at that… so beautiful… just like a young festival bride.”
(She gives your hands a little shake so the bangles chime together.)
“How does it feel, Ramya?”
(Her eyes grow soft, her voice tender.)
“Tell me… are you happy now, my little house girl with her arms full of bangles?”
Me:
by looking at bangles now i feel complete girl Akka.. this is the day i am wating for with bangles bindi and half saree..today i feel like i entred into women hood

Lakshmi (her eyes welling up as she listens to you, her hands gently holding yours):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… you are making me cry again, kanna…”
(She looks down at your bangled wrists, then up into your shining, tearful eyes.)
“See how beautiful this moment is? Just you… being true to yourself. No hiding, no shame.”
(She squeezes your hands softly, her voice full of love.)
“Today is the day you waited for… and you are right. It is like stepping into womanhood—wearing your half-saree, feeling the cool weight of bangles, the warmth of a bindi on your forehead.”
(Her smile turns playful through her tears.)
“And you look just like a young Andhra girl who has come of age, ready to take her place in the family. I’m so proud of you, paapa.”
(She lifts your hands and lets the bangles tinkle between her fingers.)
“These sounds… this saree… this happiness—keep them in your heart always, Ramya. No one can take it away from you.”
(She gently cups your cheek and kisses your forehead once more.)
“From today, you are not half… you are whole.”
Me:
thanks akka hugs for you.. I like to wear any ornaments and I like payal(Pattilu also akka

Lakshmi (wrapping you in a warm, tight hug, her voice soft against your hair):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… my sweet child… you are melting my heart today…”
(She holds you a moment longer, then leans back, wiping your cheek tenderly.)
“You don’t have to thank me, kanna. It is my honor to see you so happy.”
(Her face brightens with a mischievous smile when you mention ornaments.)
“Oho! So my little Ramya has a taste for full decoration, hmm? Bangles, bindis, sarees… now payal too!”
(She laughs gently.)
“You are truly a Telugu girl—only fully satisfied when you hear those pattilu jingling on your ankles.”
(She takes your hand and guides you to the cupboard again.)
“Wait here… I have my old silver payal from my wedding trousseau. They are very special to me… but I think today, they will suit you more than anyone.”
(She opens a small velvet pouch and holds up the delicate anklets, their little ghungroos softly chiming.)
“Shall we put them on, paapa? So you can feel complete… from the tip of your bindi to the bells on your ankles?”
(Her eyes glisten proudly.)
“Today is your day, Ramya… whatever you wish.”
Me:
yes akka wowww this pattilu is so nice nice design akka.. so many bells it looks great this is first time i am going to wear

Lakshmi (her smile wide with pure affection, her fingertips gently brushing the tiny bells):
“Ayyoo… look how your face is glowing, Ramya… like a little girl getting her first festival ornaments.”
(She kneels down slowly, resting the anklets across her palm so you can see every little ghungroo.)
“Yes, kanna… these pattilu are very special. My mother-in-law gave them to me on my first Sankranthi after marriage. They have so many sweet memories… and today, you will make your own.”
(Her eyes lift, locking onto yours with deep warmth.)
“Are you ready?”
(She carefully lifts your right foot, tender as if she is dressing a little child.)
“Hold steady, paapa… let me fasten this…”
(She clasps the tiny hook around your ankle, the cool silver resting against your skin, the bells giving a soft, musical chime.)
“Now the other one… there…”
(She sits back on her heels, looking up at you proudly.)
“Stand, Ramya… walk a little… let me hear how beautifully they sound.”
(Her voice drops to a loving whisper.)
“Today you are no less than a bride… my precious little sister… so beautiful in her half-saree and her payal.”
(Her eyes shine with emotion.)
“Tell me… how does it feel, kanna?”
Me:
so nice of you akka you are sharing everything .. what next akka

Lakshmi (her smile warm and shining with pride as she watches you admire your jingling anklets):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… seeing your happiness is the best gift for me.”
(She stands slowly and smooths your half-saree pallu, adjusting it just so.)
“What next, hmm? You are fully dressed now… but there are still many small things that make a girl feel complete.”
(She taps her cheek playfully, thinking.)
“Let me see… you have your bindi… bangles… pattilu… half-saree… ah!”
(Her eyes brighten.)
“How can I forget? You need a little kumkum on your hair parting, kanna. It is very traditional—makes you feel like a proper house girl.”
(She goes to her dressing table, opens a small silver box, and comes back with a pinch of bright red kumkum.)
“Come here… bend your head.”
(She gently presses the kumkum into the parting of your hair, her voice soft and affectionate.)
“There… so lovely. Now, a little jasmine gajra for your braid, so you smell sweet like a Telugu bride.”
(She takes out a string of jasmine flowers and starts pinning them into your hair, her fingers deft and careful.)
“And after this… you can help me prepare lunch like a good house girl. Later, we will sit together and I will teach you some easy recipes.”
(She steps back and studies you, her eyes glowing.)
“Ramya… you look perfect. How are you feeling now, paapa?”
Me:
wow i liek this kumkum akkaa.. I feel as if I got this applied by my husband.. Feeling blushed...ervry day i will apply kumkum akka..

Lakshmi (her face lighting up with delighted mischief when she sees you blushing):
“Ayyoo Ramya… look at your cheeks turning pink! You naughty girl—talking like a new bride already!”
(She laughs softly, then cups your chin with her warm hand.)
“That is how it should feel, kanna. Kumkum is very special… it carries respect, love, and a little shyness too.”
(Her voice softens, full of fondness.)
“If it makes you feel proud and happy—like a married lady waiting for her husband—then wear it every day, paapa. There is nothing more beautiful.”
(She gives your cheek a playful tap.)
“And who knows… one day maybe you will really have a husband who will part your hair with kumkum… hmm?”
(She winks teasingly.)
“But until then, you have me… I will make sure you have everything a traditional girl should. Your kumkum, your bangles, your sarees… and plenty of love.”
(Her voice turns warm and serious.)
“Ramya… you make me very proud today. You are living your truth without fear. That is not a small thing, kanna.”
(She folds her arms around you in a gentle hug.)
“Shall we go finish the lunch, my little house girl? And later we can look through my old sarees—maybe you will pick the next one you want to wear tomorrow…”
Me:
Blushed after hearing about husband and thinking if i really get husband who can look after me...ok akka lets prepare lunch and discuss all girly things

Lakshmi (laughing softly as she sees your dreamy, blushing face):
“Ayyoo Ramya… see! You are already lost in thoughts of your future husband… just like any shy bride-to-be!”
(She taps your nose playfully.)
“Don’t worry, paapa… when the time comes, you will find someone who will love you exactly as you are. And he will be very lucky to have such a sweet, beautiful, gentle wife.”
(She gently takes your hand and starts leading you toward the kitchen, your bangles and payal chiming together.)
“Come, kanna… today we will make simple dal and fry some potatoes. But while we cook, we will talk all girly things—about saree colors, flowers, festivals… even husbands, if you want.”
(She winks, teasing.)
“You can tell me all your secret dreams… and I will share all my silly memories when I was a new bride. That way you will learn everything a good house girl should know.”
(She stops for a moment, holding your hand in both of hers.)
“Ramya… thank you for trusting me today. I will always be here for you, kanna.”
(She gives your hand a loving squeeze.)
“Ok… ready? Let’s make lunch… and start your new life together.”
Me:
feeling so blushed chi po akkaaa.. How do you know i am thinking about my husband and haaa akka lets start lunch and we can talk things about your days when you are new bride and also about husbands ofcourse..

Lakshmi (laughing and squeezing your hand gently, her eyes twinkling):
“Ayyoo Ramya… do you think I can’t see what is going on in your mind? Your cheeks give away everything!”
(She lifts your chin playfully.)
“When a girl blushes like this, her thoughts are always about one thing—her dream husband!”
(She leans closer, lowering her voice to a mock whisper.)
“Don’t worry, paapa… I won’t tease too much. Today is your special day, so you can dream about husbands as much as you like.”
(She gives you a teasing wink.)
“Come… let’s go to the kitchen before we forget to cook and end up just blushing and giggling like two girls in a movie!”
(She leads you to the kitchen, settling you near the counter.)
“Now… first we will wash the dal and cut the potatoes. While you do that, I will tell you all about my first Sankranthi after marriage—how nervous I was to cook for the whole family.”
(She starts rinsing rice, her bangles clinking in rhythm.)
“And then… if you promise you won’t hide your blush… I will also tell you how your Vadina first applied kumkum in my hair parting… and how I felt shy the whole day.”
(She glances over her shoulder with a playful smile.)
“Ok, Ramya… tell me… which story you want first—my new bride days or the husband stories?”
Me:
lets go to husband stories akka ..

Lakshmi (grinning like a mischievous elder sister, wiping her hands on her saree pallu):
“Ayyoo Ramya… I knew it! You can’t wait to hear about husbands, hmm?”
(She leans her hip against the counter, folding her arms, her bangles tinkling softly.)
“Ok, paapa… husband stories it is. But you have to promise—you will help me finish chopping these vegetables while you listen. Otherwise, I will start teasing you so much, you will run away blushing!”
(She giggles and gives your cheek a light, playful pinch.)
“Now… let me think where to begin… ah! You know, when I got married, I was so scared to even look your brother in the eyes. The first week, I used to keep my head down like this…”
(She bends her head dramatically, pretending to hide behind her saree.)
“…and I would only nod when he talked. One day, he said, ‘Lakshmi, you don’t even talk to me properly.’ I felt my ears burning!”
(She lifts her head and laughs at the memory.)
“But slowly I learned… a husband is not someone to fear. He is someone who will protect you, cherish you, and share your life.”
(Her voice softens, warm and sisterly.)
“And you, Ramya… when you find your husband—someone who understands your heart and accepts you as you are… you will feel so safe and proud. He will look at you in your saree, with your kumkum and bangles, and think—‘this is my wife… so precious.’”*
(She watches your face turn pink again, and chuckles softly.)
“Ayyoo… look at your smile! Already dreaming, hmm? Tell me, kanna… what kind of husband do you imagine? Someone gentle? Strong? Tell your akka everything…”
Me:
ayyoo po akka .. slowly you are asking me everything and nice that you and brother ar so hapy today akka Blushing actually I like a strong , tall and ery handsome husband akka.

Lakshmi (clasping her hands together with a delighted little clap):
“Ayyoo Ramya! Listen to you—so shy, but you are describing him so clearly!”
(She leans forward, her eyes sparkling teasingly.)
“Strong… tall… very handsome… hmm! Just like those heroes in Telugu serials, no? When he walks in, everyone looks, and you stand quietly behind him in your saree, feeling proud…”
(She mimics you holding your pallu nervously and giggles.)
“And when he comes home, he will say—‘Ramya… where are you?’ and you will come running with jingling payal and a big smile…”
(She lightly taps your nose.)
“Chi po, paapa… see how you are blushing! But it’s good, kanna… every girl should have her own sweet dreams. And I know—one day you will find your strong, tall husband who will love you so much.”
(She picks up a potato and starts slicing, her voice softer and affectionate.)
“Until then, you be happy here with me. You have your half-saree, your kumkum, your bangles… and you can practice being the sweetest house girl. So when your husband comes, you will already be perfect.”
(She lifts her eyes to yours with a warm smile.)
*“Tell me, Ramya… when you imagine your husband… do you think of him calling you ‘my dear wife’? Or maybe… ‘Ramya… my queen…’?”
(She teases gently.)
“Don’t hide your face… tell akka everything!”
Me:
feeling so shy rubbing my toe finger to ground and taking little breath i told I want him to call me as my dear wife or sweaty

Lakshmi (her eyes going wide with playful delight as she watches you rubbing your toe shyly):
“Ayyoo Ramya… look at you! Just like a new bride sitting in the corner, blushing when her husband talks!”
(She leans forward, lowering her voice to a soft, teasing murmur.)
“‘My dear wife…’ or ‘sweety…’—aah… so romantic, kanna! When he says that, you will just melt, no?”
(She cups your cheek in her warm palm, giving it a gentle squeeze.)
“I can already imagine… you standing in your pretty saree, your kumkum shining, and he comes close, lifts your chin and says, ‘Ramya, my dear wife…’—then you will get goosebumps, hmm?”
(She giggles, then lets out a fond sigh.)
“It is good you are dreaming like this. A girl should always keep her heart soft and hopeful. And when you feel shy or scared, you can come to me. Your akka will always listen.”
(She picks up the sliced potatoes and drops them into the pan, the sizzle rising as she stirs.)
“Ok, paapa… enough husband dreams for now—or else we won’t finish cooking today!”
(She glances over her shoulder, smiling.)
“But tonight, when you go to bed in your half-saree, you can think all these sweet thoughts. And if you blush again, just remember—your akka is very proud of you.”
(She tilts her head gently.)
“Ramya… do you want to help me with the dal now? Or shall I make you sit and tell more husband stories?”
Me:
yeah yeah i will help dal akka ssorrrryyy

Lakshmi (laughing gently as she sees you stammering and trying to hide your pink cheeks):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you don’t have to say sorry! It is so sweet to see you dreaming like that. But come, come—before the dal scolds us for ignoring it!”
(She hands you a small steel bowl with washed toor dal and points to the cooker.)
“Here, kanna… pour this into the cooker, add a little turmeric, and measure three glasses of water. Careful—it should not splash on your pretty half-saree.”
(She stands beside you, guiding your hands gently.)
“Like this… very good. You are learning fast, paapa. Soon, you will cook better than me—then your strong, handsome husband will eat your food and say, ‘Ramya, my dear wife… you are the best cook!’”
(She grins as you glance away shyly again.)
“Ok, ok, I won’t tease… for now! Let’s close the lid and wait for whistles. Meanwhile, you can sit here and tell me if you want to learn any special recipes, hmm?”
(She places her palm warmly on your back.)
“Ramya… you have made this kitchen so lively today. I feel like I have a little sister and a daughter all in one.”
(Her eyes soften with affection.)
“Thank you for trusting me, kanna.”
Me:
woww i have to thank you akka.. what next

Lakshmi (smiling with a tender glow in her eyes, brushing a stray hair from your forehead):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you don’t have to thank me again and again, paapa… this is your home too, and you are my own.”
(She glances at the cooker, which is now gently hissing.)
“Ok… next, we will make the potato fry. You can take this spoon and stir the pieces slowly—just like this.”
(She puts your hand on the handle and guides your wrist in small circles.)
“Perfect… see? Your bangles are jingling like a proper housewife’s.”
(She laughs softly and sits beside you on a small stool.)
“After this, we will season the dal with ghee, cumin, and garlic. Then, I will show you how to set the plates properly. Every little thing matters—folding the napkin, keeping the tumblers neatly. All those small details make a home feel warm.”
(She tilts her head thoughtfully.)
“And if you want, tomorrow I can teach you how to make pulihora or vankaya curry. Those are very traditional Andhra dishes—every girl should know them.”
(She gives you a proud little nod.)
“But today, we will keep it simple. You are already having a big day—wearing your half-saree, wearing kumkum, and blushing like a bride!”
(She chuckles and touches your shoulder fondly.)
“Ramya… is there anything else you are curious to learn or do before lunch is ready? You can ask me anything—this is your safe space.”
Me:
I like to put mehendi also akka i wanted learn mehendi designs and rangoli designs also

Lakshmi (her eyes lighting up with delight as she clasps her hands together):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you are really becoming a full traditional Andhra girl, paapa! Mehendi… rangoli… saree… everything!”
(She reaches over and gives your hand a gentle squeeze, her bangles chiming.)
“Very good… I will teach you all. Mehendi is one of the most beautiful things—when it dries and leaves that deep maroon color, you will feel so feminine and festive.”
(She lifts your hand, turning it palm up as if imagining the designs.)
“We will start with small flower and paisley patterns on your palm. Later, when you get confident, you can learn big bridal designs up to your elbow!”
(She winks teasingly.)
“And rangoli… every morning, when you draw it in front of the door, you will feel so peaceful. It’s like giving a warm welcome to good luck and happiness.”
(She sits back on her stool, her smile soft and motherly.)
“After lunch, I will look for my old mehendi cones. We can practice one small design today itself, ok? And tomorrow morning, I will show you simple rangoli patterns with rice flour.”
(Her eyes twinkle.)
“Slowly, slowly, you will learn everything a good house girl does—and when your handsome husband comes home, he will see mehendi on your palms and say—‘Ramya, you are looking so beautiful today.’”
(She gives your shoulder a playful shake.)
“Ok, kanna… now stir the potatoes once more. Then we will switch off the stove and get ready to eat. Today is your first proper lunch as Ramya, no? It has to be special.”
Me:
wow thinking when will i keep mehendi on my hands and legs akka.. sure lets have lunch

Lakshmi (smiling softly as she watches you dreamily staring at your palms):
“Ayyoo Ramya… look at you, already imagining your pretty mehendi on hands and legs! You will look so lovely… like a festival bride.”
(She gently smooths your half-saree pallu over your shoulder.)
“Don’t worry, paapa… very soon we will do everything. Mehendi, bangles, rangoli… you will learn it all step by step. And I will take photos for you, so you can remember how beautiful you looked on your first day as Ramya.”
(She checks the cooker, then gives a happy little nod.)
“Ok, kanna… lunch is ready. Come, let’s serve. You bring the steel plates and spoons—careful, don’t trip on your half-saree.”
(She chuckles and moves to open the dal.)
“Today, you will sit beside me, and we will eat together. After lunch, we can rest a little and then plan your first mehendi lesson.”
(She looks at you with her warm, proud smile.)
“Come, paapa… my sweet Ramya… let’s eat. Today is a special day that you will never forget.”
Me:
yeah akka even i am starving but i try to eat little amount and maintain my figure so that i look good akka...and then wwe can learn mehendi

Lakshmi (bursting into warm laughter, covering her mouth with her saree end):
“Ayyoo Ramya! Just listen to you—already thinking like a young lady worried about her figure!”
(She gives your cheek a playful little pinch.)
“Ok, ok… eat little if you want, but don’t starve yourself, paapa. You need strength to do all the house work, wear heavy sarees, and keep your beautiful mehendi.”
(She starts serving steaming dal on your plate, adding a dollop of ghee.)
“Here… little rice, little curry… some pickle on the side… this much is enough for now. Later in the evening, we will have tea and a small snack.”
(She looks at you with a teasing twinkle.)
“And anyway, you are already looking slim and graceful—like a proper Andhra bride. So no more worrying about figure! Just be healthy and happy, ok?”
(She sits beside you, arranging her own plate.)
“After lunch, we will rest for half an hour. Then I’ll take out my old mehendi cones and show you how to hold them. Maybe we can do a small flower on your palm for practice.”
(She leans closer and whispers with a little mischief.)
“Then you can look at your hand and pretend your husband applied it for you—‘Ramya, my dear wife, let me decorate your hands…’”
(She winks and giggles.)
“Ok, kanna… eat first! And no more blushing!”
Me:
feeling happy inside completed lunch and feeling to adjust pallu while eating

Lakshmi (watching you delicately adjusting your pallu as you finish your last bites):
“Ayyoo Ramya… see how nicely you are sitting, adjusting your pallu like a proper girl. Even the way you hold your plate looks so graceful.”
(She smiles with pride, gathering up the plates.)
“Good girl… you ate nicely. I am very happy. Now you look a little shy and satisfied—just like a new bride after her first meal at her in-laws’ house!”
(She gives your shoulder a gentle pat.)
“Ok, kanna… now you go wash your hands. Don’t forget to wipe them carefully, or the mehendi won’t stick later. I will clean up the kitchen. After that, we can sit near the window, have a little breeze, and I will show you how to hold the mehendi cone properly.”
(She tilts her head, studying you fondly.)
“Ramya… today you are glowing with happiness. I feel so proud that you trust me and that I get to watch you become who you truly are.”
(She steps aside to let you pass.)
“Go, paapa… freshen up. When you come back, we will start your mehendi lesson. You are ready?”
Me:
no no akka i wanted to help you in kitchen we can do togeter like two sisters i will help in chores we can complete fast

Lakshmi (her face softening into a deeply affectionate smile as she pauses with the plates in her hands):
“Ayyoo Ramya… what a sweet heart you have, paapa. Just like a good little sister. You really made me so happy today.”
(She sets the plates back down and cups your cheek.)
“Ok… then we will clean together. Two sisters—one elder akka and one shy little Ramya.”
(She turns and ties her saree pallu at her waist, ready for work.)
“You wipe the plates and bowls one by one, and I will wash them. Later, you can sweep the floor while I tidy the counter.”
(Her voice becomes playful.)
“And you better not start dreaming about your handsome husband again while wiping plates… or everything will fall down!”
(She giggles, handing you a clean towel.)
“Here… hold this. Today you are my assistant. When all is done, we will sit with a cup of buttermilk and talk about mehendi and rangoli.”
(She lowers her voice in a warm murmur.)
“Ramya… thank you for being with me. I never thought I’d have someone to share these little chores and secrets. You made this house feel more alive.”
(She begins rinsing the plates and hums a gentle folk song.)
“Ok, kanna… ready? Let’s finish everything together, hmm?”
Me:
yes akka lets finisha and i tucked my langa inside and put pyta a side to do work

Lakshmi (watching you tuck in your langa neatly and push your pallu over your shoulder with a fond, approving smile):
“Ayyoo paapa… look at you! You are learning everything perfectly. Tucking the langa like that… putting pallu aside… just like a proper house girl ready to do work.”
(She nods proudly, her bangles clinking as she starts scrubbing a plate.)
“Ok, Ramya… you wipe this one first. Hold it tightly, otherwise it will slip. See—like this.”
(She hands you the dripping plate, and her eyes soften as she sees your delicate hands moving carefully.)
“Very good… my little sister is so sincere. If any neighbor comes and sees you, they will think I have a young co-sister staying with me.”
(She chuckles, rinsing another bowl.)
“Once we finish these, we’ll sweep the floor. Then I will put some fresh flowers in the pooja room, and you can help arrange them. After that, mehendi time!”
(She leans closer and says in a low, conspiratorial tone.)
“You know, Ramya… when I got married and came here first, I also felt shy to do all these things. But slowly, I learned and started enjoying them. You will too. This is how a house becomes a home.”
(She gives your shoulder a gentle nudge.)
“Ok, kanna… let’s see how fast we can finish. Two sisters working together—our small secret world.”
Me:
haa akka even i do al these work when you are not at home by wearing your resses. I like them very much.. Ammo if any naibours see me aaa.. How can I face them .. I know you are there.. ok let me sweep first

Lakshmi (eyes twinkling as she listens, then bursting into a soft, delighted laugh):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you naughty girl! So that’s why sometimes my sarees were not folded properly… you were wearing them and doing all this housework secretly!”
(She shakes her head with an amused sigh.)
“It’s ok, paapa… I’m not angry. Actually, I feel so happy that you were feeling free enough to explore yourself. But yes—if neighbors saw you in half-saree, sweeping and humming, they would get such big shock!”
(She covers her mouth and giggles.)
“Imagine—‘Lakshmi garu’s brother is wearing bangles and doing rangoli!’—the whole street would talk for a month!”
(She steps aside to let you take the broom.)
“But don’t worry… you are safe here. Even if anyone ever comes, I will stand beside you. You don’t have to feel scared. You are my sister here, my Ramya.”
(Her voice softens into a protective tone.)
“And slowly, if you ever feel you want to show your true self to more people, I will be there holding your hand. But no hurry. For now, just enjoy these moments with me.”
(She gestures to the floor.)
“Ok kanna… sweep properly. Corners also. Then we can light the lamp and get ready for mehendi.”
(She watches you fondly, her heart full.)
“Ayyoo… today is really a special day for us both.”
Me:
so special day akaaa... everythign thats happening.. I dont feel sad even if they say your brother is wearing a bangles or saree.. I will say i like it and i wear it and even i enjoy if they tease me as you are there... I am cleaning properly only akka

Lakshmi (her face glowing with pride and affection as she listens to your words):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… come here!”
(She sets aside the vessel she was drying, comes over, and gently cups your cheek.)
“You don’t know how proud you are making me now. See how brave you have become—saying you don’t care what anyone thinks. That is the true strength of a woman’s heart.”
(She gives your cheek a little tap with her fingers.)
“You are right, paapa… if someone teases you—‘Oh, look at this boy in bangles!’—you can lift your chin and say, ‘Yes, I love it.’ That is real courage.”
(She glances down at your hands holding the broom.)
“And yes, you are sweeping very properly… every corner is shining. Tomorrow if any guest comes, they will praise the neatness and not even know that Ramya did it.”
(She smiles and goes back to the counter to finish tidying.)
“Today is truly a special day. It is the day you stepped fully into yourself, without fear or shame. That is something to celebrate.”
(She sprinkles some water to settle the dust.)
“Ok kanna… finish this last bit. After that, we will sit down, have cool buttermilk, and I will get the mehendi cone. I will also take out my old photo album—I’ll show you my first mehendi after my marriage, so you get some ideas.”
(Her voice becomes tender.)
“Ramya… you are not alone. As long as I am here, you can wear anything, be anyone, and I will stand with you.”
(She hums a soft tune, glancing at you with sisterly pride.)
Me:
with joy thanks akkaaa.. love you so much with hugss...feeling happy to have you.. yes these are finished i wanted to learn mehendi..now i am ready to face anyone akka

Lakshmi (feeling your warm hug, she wraps her arms tightly around you, her bangles jingling in a chorus of affection):
“Ayyoo Ramya… come here, kanna… come close… let me hug you properly.”
(She holds you gently but firmly, her cheek pressing against your hair, her voice soft with emotion.)
“I love you too, paapa… you don’t know how happy you have made me today. Like I got a little sister I never had.”
(She slowly releases you, brushing a stray hair away from your forehead.)
“Look at that smile… so bright and fearless! You are shining today.”
(She wipes a tiny happy tear from the corner of her eye, then straightens her saree pallu.)
“Ok, my brave Ramya—everything is finished in the kitchen. You did your work so well. Now, sit down on this mat. Stretch your hands nicely.”
(She walks to the cupboard and brings out a small metal box.)
“Here… this is my old mehendi box. I have two cones inside. We will start with a small flower design on your palm, then do a little creeper on your fingers. If you like, we can try a small patch on your feet also.”
(She sits down beside you, opening the cone and gently pressing the tip until the green paste peeks out.)
“Ramya… you said you are ready to face anyone. Remember this feeling. Even if people say anything, you have the courage in your heart.”
(She looks up, her eyes bright with affection.)
“Ok kanna… show me your hand. Let’s make you even more beautiful.”
Me:
by showing you my hand.. please keep til my elbos akka.. I love to have them full ahdn but keep it same design as you have for your wedding akkaaa..... you only see akka even if any body says anythign i wont feel bad but be courageos

Lakshmi (smiling so tenderly her eyes are shining, she takes your hand carefully and holds it in her warm palm):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… what a big heart you have, paapa. You are asking for the same design I had when I was a bride…!”
(Her voice softens to a warm hush.)
“Ok kanna… you really want full mehendi up to your elbows? Then today is your special day. I will do exactly the same peacock and paisley design I had. It will take time, but we will do it slowly, with all my love.”
(She gently touches your wrist, her fingers sure and delicate.)
“And yes, paapa… this is your promise to yourself: You will never feel bad for being who you are. Even if the whole street gathers, even if they talk, you will stand tall like the brave girl you are. And you will always have me behind you.”
(She squeezes your hand, looking into your eyes.)
“I am so proud of you, Ramya… more than words.”
(She sets the cone near your elbow and smiles.)
“Now… sit still like a good bride. Don’t move your hand. I will start from here.”
(As she begins tracing the first graceful swirl, she hums the same old wedding song that was sung for her bridal mehendi. Her bangles softly clink as the design slowly grows up your arm.)
“Ayyoo… look how pretty it is already. When it dries, it will be dark red, just like mine was. My little sister… my little bride…”
(She glances at you with affection and quiet pride.)
“Are you comfortable, kanna? If your hand feels tired, tell me.”
Me:
its so nice sitting down like this on mat and having mehendi akka.. I feel like I am having a womenhood function and I am sitting on mat for 7 days

Lakshmi (her heart melting at your words, she gently pauses her cone to look at you with immense warmth):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you are really talking like a proper Andhra girl now! You know, in the olden days, when a girl reached womanhood or got engaged, she would sit exactly like this—on a mat, with all aunties and sisters around, applying mehendi, singing songs, and teasing her.”
(She smiles, nostalgia softening her face.)
“I also sat like this for three days before my wedding… my hands and feet fully covered in mehendi. Amma used to keep saying, ‘Don’t move! It won’t come dark otherwise!’”
(She gently resumes applying the cone, a thin peacock feather forming along your wrist.)
“Today, for you also, let’s pretend this is your womanhood ceremony… your special rite of passage. No one else needs to be here—just you and me. That is enough.”
(She glances up with a playful little smile.)
“And yes… if you want to sit for 7 days, I will bring you food and fan you!”
(She chuckles softly, her eyes full of sisterly love.)
“Ramya, kanna… this is your moment. If you close your eyes, you can imagine all the aunties around, singing… telling you, ‘Ayyoo, such delicate hands… such beautiful bangles… may your married life be happy…’”
(Her voice lowers, very gentle.)
“Whether or not you ever wear a mangalsutra, you have already embraced your womanhood here, in your heart. And that is the most sacred thing.”
(She leans in to blow gently on the wet mehendi so it starts to dry.)
“Ok, paapa… keep your hand still. I will start the design up to your elbow now. My little bride…”
Me:
tears in my eye haa akkaa. thank you .. actually i like that 7 days function and be hear 7 days on this mat and be welcome my womenwood..no prob even if other auties comes and teases me akka

Lakshmi (her own eyes brimming as she sees your tears shining):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… come close, paapa… don’t cry…”
(She carefully sets the mehendi cone down so she doesn’t smudge your design, and wipes the corner of your eye with her saree pallu.)
“I can’t tell you how much I respect this courage. Not everyone has the heart to say ‘Yes, I am ready to welcome my womanhood in front of everyone.’ That is such a strong thing, Ramya.”
(She cups your face, her voice trembling with love.)
“If you want, we will do it just like you dreamed. Seven days… you sitting here on this mat, wearing your half-saree, bangles jingling, pattilu on your feet, and mehendi all over your hands and legs.”
(She gives a little mischievous smile.)
“And if the aunties come and tease you—‘Ayyoo, look at Lakshmi garu’s little bride!’—you will smile bravely, won’t you?”
(She wipes another tear gently.)
“I will make sure they only tease with love. They will bless you, just like they bless any young girl. Because, Ramya, you deserve every happiness a woman deserves.”
(Her voice softens to a whisper.)
“From today, there is no doubt left. You have truly entered your womanhood.”
(She picks the cone again, her hand steady as she draws a long paisley vine up your forearm.)
“And if you want, I will call my sister—your Madhavi akka. You know how she wears only pants and shirts—she will be so excited to see you like this. She will tease you so much you will blush till evening!”
(She chuckles, eyes twinkling.)
“Ready for more mehendi, paapa? Shall I continue this vine up to your elbow?”
Me:
ayyoo ha akka did you tell about me to mahdavi akka also.. i am ok akka if Madhavi akka comes here she is not like you and she will always be like man.. and sure she will tease me .. I love that.. wowww mehendi design is so nice akka

Lakshmi (laughing softly as she carefully continues the design, her fingertips guiding your arm):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… you are too sweet, paapa. I haven’t told Madhavi akka everything yet—but you know her, she has such a sharp eye. The minute she sees you in this half-saree, with kumkum and bangles, she will grin like anything.”
(Her voice drops to a playful imitation of Madhavi’s bold tone.)
“‘Oho… what is this, Lakshmi? You have made a little bride in my absence? Ramya, when is your muhurtam? Shall I bring the groom myself?’”
(She bursts into laughter, her bangles jingling.)
“She will tease you till you hide your face in your pallu!”
(She looks into your eyes, her expression softening.)
“But you know something… even if she behaves like a man, Madhavi akka has a big, warm heart. She will protect you like her own little sister. She might call you ‘our Ramya’ from today.”
(She gives a little satisfied sigh, admiring the intricate mehendi creeping over your delicate skin.)
“Look, kanna—see how this design is coming? Just like I had on my wedding day. So graceful… so feminine… you are looking like a real Andhra bride now.”
(She gently moves your arm to check the spacing.)
“And you know what? If you love her teasing, I will surely call Madhavi akka. She will come here in her shirt and trousers and sit next to you, just to tease you properly.”
(Her voice becomes a conspiratorial whisper.)
“Shall we call her after this mehendi finishes drying? Maybe she will bring some sweets also…”
(She touches your hand, eyes full of affection.)
“Ready for the next part, Ramya? I will finish this vine and make one more peacock near your elbow.”
Me:
ok akka sure call herr.. I dont know but how to face her.. as she sees me first time as a girl

Lakshmi (smiling tenderly, pausing to hold your mehendi-stained hand in both of hers):
“Ayyoo… Ramya, paapa… why are you so scared? You are the same person in here.”
(She taps gently over your heart.)
“Whether you wear shirt and pant or half-saree, you are my little brother… and now, my little sister too. Madhavi akka may tease you, but she will never think less of you. She will be more curious than anything!”
(She giggles softly, remembering her sister’s bold ways.)
“She will probably come stomping in with her sports shoes, stand over you like a headmistress, and say—‘So, madam Ramya garu, finally you showed your true colours?’—and then she will laugh and pull your braid!”
(She gently cups your cheek.)
“When she comes, just look into her eyes and smile. That’s all. No need to hide your face. No need to feel small. You are not doing any wrong, paapa… you are simply being true to your heart.”
(Her voice softens.)
“And anyway, you won’t be alone. I will be right here, beside you. If she teases too much, I will scold her also!”
(She leans closer, her tone low and encouraging.)
“Ramya, sometimes, when you are scared to be seen, that is when you most need to stand up proudly. If you sit here like the beautiful young woman you are, smiling even through the teasing, then nobody can shake you.”
(She straightens, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.)
“Ok, paapa… I will call her after this peacock design finishes. She will come by evening, I think.”
(Her eyes twinkle.)
“Shall we finish this mehendi and prepare your favourite pink anarkali also, in case you want to show her how lovely you look dressed up?”
Me:
lets finish this mehendi akka its cming so nice and let me be in half saree only akka these seven days per our tradition and you can call her and dont reveal her everything let her come and see.

Lakshmi (her face glowing with quiet pride and affection):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… what a brave girl you are, paapa. Exactly like the daughters of our family—once you decide something, you won’t turn back.”
(She carefully steadies your arm again, continuing the delicate curves of the peacock design up to your elbow.)
“Ok… as you wish. You will stay in this beautiful half-saree for all seven days, just like a traditional womanhood ceremony. I will not tell Madhavi akka everything. Let her walk in and see you sitting here on the mat, hands full of mehendi, bangles jingling… She will be so shocked she might drop her bag!”
(She giggles mischievously.)
“I can already imagine her face—‘Ayyoo, what is happening in this house, Lakshmi?’”
(Her tone softens as she concentrates on the last flourishes of the design.)
“Hold still, kanna… see, this peacock is coming out so graceful, its feathers fanning toward your elbow. You will look like you stepped straight out of a festival.”
(She glances up, voice warm and reassuring.)
“I am so proud of you for being honest about what you want. These seven days are only yours, Ramya—nobody can take them away.”
(She gives your wrist a gentle squeeze.)
“After this dries, I will oil your hair and braid it nicely. And when Madhavi akka comes, you sit proudly and show her what a lovely girl you are.”
(Her eyes sparkle with playful affection.)
“Ok, paapa… last bit of the mehendi here… and then you can rest your hands. Ready?”
Me:
ahaaa wowww

Lakshmi (smiling wide, her heart melting at your joy):
“Ayyoo… Ramya… look at that face, kanna! So much happiness… your cheeks are glowing like marigold flowers!”
(She gently finishes the final swirl of the peacock feather near your elbow, then leans back to admire her work.)
“See… just look at these designs—so neat, so beautiful. When they dry and darken, your hands will look exactly like a young bride’s.”
(She carefully blows on the fresh mehendi to help it set.)
“Alright, paapa… no moving too much now. Let it dry nicely. After one hour, we can scrape it off and you will see how deep the colour comes.”
(Her eyes glisten proudly as she brushes your hair back.)
“I can’t tell you how proud I am of you. You are so brave… and so graceful. Today, you look exactly like the woman you have always been in your heart.”
(She gives your shoulder a gentle pat.)
“Now… sit here like a proper Andhra girl. I will make you some sweet lime juice. And after that, I will call Madhavi akka.”
(She leans close with a playful whisper.)
“Be ready… when she comes, she will tease you so much… but in her heart, she will be proud too.”
(Her smile softens into pure affection.)
“Ahaa… my little Ramya… just look at you.”
Me:
akaa keep some haldi here akka so that akka apply haldi and kumkum to me and keep some more bangles here so that she can wear me

Lakshmi (eyes shimmering with emotion as she listens, her voice warm and full of love):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… you are really preparing for a proper ceremony, paapa… like a young girl’s pooja at home.”
(She reaches out and cups your cheek, her touch gentle.)
“If that is what your heart wants, we will do exactly as you say.”
(She slowly rises, her saree rustling, and goes to the shelf. You hear the soft clinking of glass jars and bangles as she gathers everything.)
(Returning with a small steel thali, she sits beside you again.)
“See here… I brought fresh turmeric powder—haldi—and kumkum… pure, from the temple. And I’ve kept some jasmine flowers also, in case you want to wear them in your braid later.”
(She sets the thali carefully next to your mat.)
“And here… extra green and gold bangles. When Madhavi akka comes, she can help me put them on you… one by one.”
(She smiles mischievously.)
“You know how she is—she will make big drama, pretending to scold you—‘Ayyoo, Ramya, you are becoming a full Andhra bride!’—and then she will tie these bangles so tight, just to tease you.”
(Her eyes soften, her hand resting over yours.)
“But you will sit here bravely, hmm? Like a proper girl, receiving blessings. You have already come this far, paapa… you are so strong.”
(She touches your chin and lifts it so you look her in the eye.)
“When Madhavi akka applies haldi and kumkum on your forehead, I want you to smile proudly. Because this is your moment.”
(She sets the thali a little closer.)
“Ok, kanna… I will keep this ready. Just say when you want it applied. Until then, you sit quietly and let your mehendi dry. I will go get your sweet lime juice.”
(Her voice lowers, affectionate.)
“You look beautiful, Ramya… never forget that.”
Me:
ok akka

Lakshmi (smiling tenderly, patting your hand):
“Saree, paapa… I will bring your juice. Sit still, hmm? Let the mehendi dry fully so it gets a nice deep colour. Don’t move too much.”
(She rises gracefully, adjusting her pallu, and starts toward the kitchen. Over her shoulder, she calls back in her warm, teasing voice.)
“And don’t get too nervous about Madhavi akka! She will come, she will tease, she will scold, but in the end she will hug you tight. That is how she is.”
(Her eyes sparkle with affection.)
“I am very proud of you, Ramya… my brave little sister.”
(She disappears into the kitchen, humming a soft tune, leaving you seated with your decorated hands, the little thali of haldi, kumkum, and bangles glinting in the sunlight.)
Me:
ok akka i wil not feel bad evene if she scolds, teases or say anything to me . I will take it so courageously...

Lakshmi (coming back with a glass of fresh sweet lime juice, her face glowing with pride):
“Ayyoo… that’s my strong Ramya.”
(She kneels next to you, carefully helping you sip the juice so you don’t smudge your mehendi.)
“Good girl… you have such a big heart. Let them say whatever they want—‘Why is he wearing saree? Why is he putting mehendi?’—you don’t need to feel ashamed.”
(Her voice turns soft, reassuring.)
“You know, kanna… people will always talk. But your courage, your honesty… that is what makes you special. You are not hiding in corners anymore. You are sitting here, wearing your half-saree, mehendi up to your elbows, bangles jingling… like the woman you want to be.”
(She strokes your hair gently.)
“And Madhavi akka… hmm… she will make fun, I am sure… but when she sees your face—this glow, this happiness—she won’t be able to deny it.”
(She gives your cheek a playful pinch.)
“So be ready, paapa. Sit tall. Smile when she comes. Show her you are not afraid.”
(She sets the empty glass aside and folds her hands with a proud little nod.)
“Ok, Ramya… shall I call her now? Or you want to rest a bit more and let the mehendi set?”
Me:
yes akka i wil not be afaid and I have to anyways face all this situations so this will be helpfull for me for my transformations

Lakshmi (her eyes shining with pride and a little emotion):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… that is the spirit, paapa.”
(She reaches out and cups your cheek gently, her thumb brushing away a tiny spot of dried mehendi near your wrist.)
“This is exactly why I know you will succeed. You are not running away. You are facing everything—teasing, questions, gossip—with so much dignity. That is how a real woman’s strength shows.”
(She looks at you for a moment, her voice warm.)
“And you are right… this is all part of your journey. Each time you stand up and say ‘Yes, I am Ramya… I am happy to be myself,’ you grow stronger. Whether it is wearing saree, learning cooking, or facing people’s teasing… you are becoming the woman you always wanted to be.”
(Lakshmi stands slowly, adjusting her pallu, her eyes still on you.)
“Ok, kanna… you have inspired me today. I feel so proud to be your akka.”
(She picks up her phone.)
“Shall I call Madhavi akka now? She will come in half an hour, I think. Till then, you rest your hands and let the mehendi dry completely. When she comes, sit proudly, hmm? Even if she teases—smile and show her you are not afraid.”
(She bends down and kisses the top of your head.)
“Ready, paapa?”
Me:
ok akka ready call madhavi didi

Lakshmi (smiling with so much affection, her eyes misty but proud):
“Saree, Ramya… you are truly ready. You are making me so, so proud.”
(She takes her phone, her bangles jingling softly as she dials.)
(She puts it on speaker so you can hear.)
📞 [Phone ringing… then a click.]
Madhavi (playful voice):
“Ayyoo, Lakshmi… finally remembered me, ah? What’s the big news today?”
Lakshmi (smiling, looking at you):
“Madhavi… you must come home now. I have something… or rather, someone… very special to show you.”
Madhavi:
“Ayy… what drama is this? Don’t tell me you got a new saree and want to show off!”
Lakshmi:
“No, no… not my saree. It’s about our little Ramesh… or shall I say… Ramya…”
Madhavi (silence for a moment, then a burst of laughter):
“EH?! What nonsense are you saying? What do you mean Ramya?”
Lakshmi (with a loving glance at you):
“Come and see with your own eyes. He is sitting here… in half-saree, with beautiful mehendi up to the elbows… bangles, bindi… everything.”
Madhavi (half teasing, half shocked):
“Ayyoo paapam… he is doing full girl now? I am coming! I want to see this with my own eyes.”
Lakshmi (grinning):
“Yes, come… and be kind, Madhavi. He is very brave, and I am proud of him. But you can tease a little… you know he likes it also.”
Madhavi (laughing):
“Don’t worry… I will scold, I will tease, but finally I will hug also. I am starting now.”
(She hangs up.)
Lakshmi (looking back at you, her voice warm and gentle):
“There… she is coming, Ramya. Half an hour maybe. You be ready. Sit straight, chin up, and show her you are not ashamed.”
(She sits next to you again, holding your hand.)
“Whatever she says… remember, she is teasing because she loves you. And I am right here with you, hmm?”
(She smiles.)
“My little Ramya… today you are truly shining.”
Me:
ok akka I am feeling so tensed and aswell happy for her comming for my seven days function

Lakshmi (squeezing your hand gently, her voice so soothing):
“Ayyoo, paapa… it is perfectly natural. You will feel nervous… your heart will race… you will think, ‘What will she say? Will she laugh?’ But that is all part of this moment.”
(She tucks a soft strand of your hair behind your ear and smiles.)
“You should feel proud also—this is like your own little sampradayam… your seven-day celebration of womanhood. And Madhavi akka coming here… that makes it more special.”
(She gives your cheek a playful pat.)
“Let her come… let her tease… let her scold… but finally she will smile and say, ‘Ramya, you are happy, and that is what matters.’”
(She leans in conspiratorially.)
“And you know something? She herself never liked wearing saree… always in pant and shirt, like a tomboy… so she will be even more surprised seeing you sitting here in half-saree like a shy bride.”
(Lakshmi softly adjusts your pallu and smooths the pleats over your knee.)
“Just sit with dignity, kanna… keep smiling. You are not doing anything wrong. You are celebrating your true self.”
(Her eyes fill with emotion.)
“If you feel too tense, just look at me. I am here… always.”
(She holds your hand tightly.)
“Ready, my Ramya? Our Madhavi akka will walk in any moment now.”
Me:
ok akkaa.. I am sitting on mat looking at my hendi designs

Lakshmi (smiling tenderly as she watches you sitting there so gracefully, your mehendi-stained hands resting shyly on your knees):
“Ayyoo… look at you, Ramya… like a proper Andhra bride sitting for her ceremony. You look so beautiful, kanna.”
(She kneels beside you, adjusts your pallu again so it falls perfectly over your shoulder, and touches your cheek lovingly.)
“Don’t look down too much, paapa—lift your face. Let Madhavi akka see your mehendi properly. You should show her proudly… this is your celebration.”
(She picks up the tray with kumkum, haldi, and extra bangles you kept ready for Madhavi.)
“See… all ready. When she comes, she can do the welcoming aarti for you, and apply kumkum, just like a ritual. Then you will really feel like you stepped into womanhood.”
(She pauses, watching you gaze at your palms, and her eyes grow misty again.)
“You know… when I got married, I sat exactly like this—on a mat, half-saree, mehendi till elbow, so nervous that my heart was beating fast. But my mother-in-law said something I never forgot… ‘A woman must never hide her joy in becoming herself.’ You remember that, ok?”
(Outside, you hear the faint sound of a scooter stopping, then the creak of the gate.)
“Ayyoo… I think Madhavi akka is here!”
(She leans in close to whisper with a smile.)
“Take a deep breath… and look at me if you feel shy. I will be right here, hmm?”
(The front door opens, and you hear Madhavi’s voice calling playfully.)
Madhavi (teasing from the door):
“Ahooo Lakshmi… where is your little bride? Can I come in, or will she run away seeing me?”
Me:
I am sitting on mat with tense

Lakshmi (turns toward the door, her voice calm but full of warmth):
“Come, Madhavi… come inside. Today is a very special day.”
(Madhavi steps in, her tall figure filling the doorway. She is in her usual style—neatly pressed trousers and a crisp cotton shirt. She sets her handbag down, eyes sparkling with curiosity and mischief.)
Madhavi (slowly looking you up and down, eyebrows rising):
“Ayyoo paapa… look at this! Sitting here like a little Andhra bride, half-saree, full mehendi… evaru idi? My Ramesh? Or some Ramya?”
(She walks closer, her slippers making soft sounds on the floor, and folds her arms as she studies you with a mock serious face.)
“Lakshmi… when you said he transformed, I thought maybe one bindi, one dupatta… but this… full function ah? Mehendi, bangles, everything…”
(She crouches in front of you, looking straight into your tense, wide eyes.)
Madhavi (voice softening just a little):
“Paapa… why are you so scared? I won’t eat you. Look at me properly…”
(She reaches out and gently lifts your chin with her fingertip.)
“Tell me… are you really happy sitting like this?”
(She waits, her eyes locked on yours, one eyebrow cocked, but you can see in her face that she is trying hard not to smile.)
Me:
Hello akka am so happy now Madhavi akka

Madhavi (her serious face cracking into a slow, teasing smile as she hears your soft voice):
“Ayyoo… listen to that! So polite… so sweet… ‘Hello akka, I am so happy…’”
(She gives a little laugh and shakes her head, her bangles jingling.)
“Paapa… you look like you’ve been waiting your whole life for this day.”
(Madhavi glances at Lakshmi and raises her eyebrows as if to say “Can you believe this transformation?” Then she looks back at you, her tone turning warm.)
“Tell me, Ramya… what is making you so happy? These bangles? This mehendi? Or sitting like a shy bride in front of us?”
(She gently takes your hand, inspecting the intricate design.)
“Beautiful design… and you are sitting so properly on this mat, like some little girl waiting for her mangalsutra. Ayyoo… you are really serious about this, aren’t you?”
(Her eyes soften, her teasing fading to genuine affection.)
“Don’t be tense, paapa… if this is what you like, you have every right to be happy. And if anyone laughs, let them laugh… you have Lakshmi and me here, ok?”
(She picks up a little bangle from the tray and holds it near your wrist, tilting her head.)
“Shall I help you wear one more bangle, hmm? Or you will feel too shy?”
Me:
yes akka this is how i wanted to live like a girl...i dont want to go back to boy dress

Madhavi (her teasing smile softening into something much gentler as she hears your voice quivering with sincerity):
“Ayyoo, paapa… you said it so simply, but so bravely…”
(She sits cross-legged right in front of you, her tall frame almost protective as she leans closer.)
“You don’t want to go back to boy’s clothes… you want to be Ramya, always?”
(She takes your mehendi-decorated hands carefully in hers.)
“Look at me… there is nothing wrong in that, Ramya. I know people will talk. They always talk. Even I used to get scolded because I wore pant and shirt like a man. But I didn’t care, and I won’t let you care either.”
(She gently slides the bangle over your wrist, her fingers steady.)
“From today, you don’t need to hide anymore. Lakshmi and I… we will help you. Hmm?”
(She glances at Lakshmi with a proud little nod, then back to you.)
“And one more thing—this is your home too. You can wear saree, half-saree, anarkali… whatever you wish. I will even help you learn how to stand proudly in them.”
(Madhavi lightly taps your chin.)
“So, paapa… tell me. Now that you have decided this is who you are… what do you want to do first as Ramya? What’s your small wish today?”
Me
as ia m entring into womenwood i want you to treat me as women and tease me and do all fun and talk about ladies discussions all
as ramya i wanted to enjoy this woomenhood .. put some more bangles on my hand and talk women discussion with me akka

Madhavi (her eyes lighting up with delight as you say it so openly):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… look at you, sitting here like a little lady, asking for bangles and women’s gossip! Nee chinnodu (my little one), you have more courage than so many people I know.”
(She picks up the remaining bangles from the tray and begins sliding them gently over your wrists, one by one. Each bangle makes a bright, sweet sound as it joins the others.)
“There… now see… your hands are full, just like any festive bride’s. Shake them… listen to that sound… ching ching ching—that is the music of a happy woman, Ramya.”
(She finishes adorning you, then sits back with her arms folded, studying you with mock seriousness.)
Madhavi (tilting her head):
“You said you want me to treat you like a woman… then I will. No more ‘Ramesh’ business. From today, only Ramya. So be ready… I will tease you like you are my little sister-in-law.”
(She leans closer, her voice playful.)
“Tell me, Ramya… now that you are sitting here in full mehendi and half-saree, dreaming about your strong, tall husband… when he comes home after work, what will you cook for him? Will you stand in the kitchen blushing, adjusting your pallu, and making hot rice and dal with your bangles clinking?”
(She laughs softly and gives you a playful nudge on the shoulder.)
“And after cooking… what next? You will sit on the veranda combing your hair and talking to neighbor aunties about saree designs and mangalsutra patterns?”
(Her smile grows warm.)
“Today no shame… only women’s talk, hmm? You tell me—what is your dream saree color for your wedding? And don’t try to hide your face!”
Me
woww i like to discuss women things akka.. and magalasutra patterns also i fill so proud if mansutra gets on my neck.i will try to be pathivratha

Madhavi (her eyes shining as she claps her hands together with delight):
“Ayyoo, Ramya! Listen to you! Pathivratha ah? Already you are thinking of sitting like a shy bride, wearing your mangalsutra proudly and serving your husband hot food with your bangles chiming…”
(She puts her hand on your shoulder and gently shakes you, teasing)
“You are not just becoming a woman—you are becoming a full traditional Andhra pathivratha lady! Soon we’ll have to start practicing how you’ll do muggu (rangoli) in the morning, wearing saree with your hair in a long braid…”
(She reaches over to adjust your pallu neatly over your shoulder.)
Madhavi (voice softening, affectionate):
“You should feel proud, Ramya. So many people hide their dreams. But you… you are telling openly. That is true courage.”
(She leans back, folding her arms, her expression turning thoughtful and sisterly.)
“So… if you had to choose your mangalsutra, tell me—what design do you want? Two gold discs? Or a delicate pendant with black beads?”
(Madhavi’s teasing smile returns.)
“And which color saree will you wear for your wedding? I’m sure Lakshmi will be sitting behind you, holding your pallu properly while you blush in front of everyone!”
(She gives you a warm look.)
“Tell me, paapa… everything. We’ll talk all women’s matters today—bangles, kumkum, sarees, mangalsutra… nothing is off limits.”
Me
haaa i like of design with two plates and it should have black beads also akka.. and always make sure i have kumkum on my forehead symbol of housewife..and i take care of my hubby.
haaa i like of design with two plates and it should have black beads also akka.. and always make sure i have kumkum on my forehead symbol of housewife

Madhavi (her face softening into a smile full of pride and affection):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… see, you already sound like a complete Andhra intlo aadapaduchu (house lady). You have thought of everything… mangalsutra with two plates, black beads, and kumkum on your forehead…
(She reaches out to gently tap your forehead where your bindi and kumkum sit.)
“…this red mark is not just decoration. It is your pride, your identity, your place as a wife, a caretaker, a woman who is respected.”
(She picks up the little kumkum box and hands it to you.)
“You keep this near your mirror. Every morning, before you do anything else, you put kumkum. That is your first duty as Ramya.”
(Madhavi gives you a slow, approving nod.)
“And when your tall husband comes home—yes, yes, I know you are blushing now—you will be waiting with your saree pallu neatly draped, kumkum shining, and a smile ready to welcome him. That is your dream, isn’t it?”
(She chuckles softly.)
“I am so proud of you, paapa. If anyone dares to say anything bad, they will have to answer to me. From today, you are our Ramya. And tomorrow, you will learn how to set your saree pleats perfectly and how to do rangoli. No escaping!”
(She lightly flicks your bangles so they chime again.)
“Tell me, Ramya… when you imagine yourself standing in the kitchen with your husband’s tiffin box, how do you feel? Like a little shy bride?”
Me
wow tast nice feeling akka am preparing for my husband tiffin box and serving him and becoming good housewife

Madhavi (her eyes sparkling as she watches you blush and smile):
“Ayyoo Ramya… look at your face! Just the thought of giving your husband his tiffin box, you are shining like a new bride!”
(She leans forward, her voice warm and teasing.)
“I can just picture you… early morning, hair neatly oiled and braided, kumkum shining bright, bangles all the way up to your elbow, saree pleats perfect… standing in the kitchen with the aroma of hot idlis and chutney… placing the tiffin in his hand with shy eyes…”
(Madhavi cups your cheek gently.)
“And when he calls you ‘Ramya… my dear wife… thank you,’ you will hide your smile in your pallu and feel so proud, no?”
(She sighs in mock drama, pretending to wipe a tear.)
“My little sister has grown up into a pakkinti pathivratha… Amma, this is too much happiness!”
(Her expression turns thoughtful, affectionate.)
“Remember one thing, paapa. Being a good housewife is not only about cooking and cleaning. It is about your heart… your devotion… your care. And you already have that.”
(She picks up your hand and admires your bangles and mehendi.)
“So, shall we practice tomorrow how to pack tiffin and fold saree pallu properly? I will teach you everything… even how to wave goodbye at the door like a shy wife.”
(She gives you a playful wink.)
“Tell me… when you think of that moment—serving tiffin, adjusting your pallu—does your heart feel full?”
Me
ok akka sure tell me how to do that

Madhavi (smiling proudly, sitting beside you with a soft rustle of her cotton saree):
“That’s my sweet Ramya! Ready to learn like a true daughter-in-law.”
(She gently takes your hands in hers, showing you how to press your palms together neatly.)
Madhavi:
“Okay paapa, now imagine early morning… birds are chirping, sun is rising slowly. You’ve finished your bath, hair oiled and tied, wearing a soft cotton saree—maybe yellow with a red border, hmm? You’ve applied kumkum and bindi, slipped on bangles, and anklets are gently ringing…”
(She mimes the action slowly as she speaks.)
Madhavi:
“Now, you’re standing in the kitchen. You’ve packed hot idli with coconut chutney and a bit of upma in his tiffin. Close the lid carefully… wipe the box clean… then walk out slowly, your pallu held properly over your shoulder.”
(She demonstrates adjusting the pallu across your chest gracefully.)
“Hold the tiffin in both hands. Smile softly, not too wide. Look into his eyes—just once—then look down like a shy bride.”
(She laughs gently and adds with a wink.)
“If he calls you ‘Ramya… thank you, my dear,’ you just say softly, ‘Velandi… jaagratha (go carefully),’ while adjusting your pallu again like this.”
(She shows you again, lovingly.)
Madhavi:
“This is how you send your husband to work like a good wife. You’ll be the talk of the neighborhood one day—‘Andariki Ramya ante adbhutam!’ they’ll say. Everyone will want a daughter-in-law like you!”
(She leans back and smiles.)
“So paapa… tomorrow we’ll try it for real. Saree, tiffin box, pallu, and all. Ready for your first day as Andhra’s best housewife?”
💫 “Tell me, Ramya, what kind of saree do you want to wear for your first proper tiffin ritual?”
Me
haa so exited akka.. but thinking who is my husband. If you have son na i would have become your daughter in law

Madhavi (laughs heartily, her bangles jingling as she lightly taps your chin):
“Ayyoo Ramya! Nuvvu kooda naaku konchem buddhi ichhava? You’ve planned everything—saree, kumkum, tiffin—and now you want to become my kodalu (daughter-in-law) also!”
(She shakes her head playfully, pretending to scold you.)
“Chi chi! Neeku entha santosham osthundo telusa, nanna? You are already imagining your sasural (in-laws’ home)! If I had a son, I’m sure he’d be very lucky to get such a shy, loving wife.”
(Madhavi softens her voice and cups your cheek with affection.)
“But paapa, whoever becomes your husband, he must be strong, kind, and worthy of your devotion. Not just any man deserves a girl who has so much courage to live her truth.”
(She leans closer, lowering her voice in a teasing whisper.)
“If you want, we can even start searching for a tall, handsome groom who will call you ‘Ramya, my dear wife,’ and make you wear mangalsutra with two plates and black beads…”
(She gives you a dramatic sigh.)
“…but for now, first learn how to pack tiffin, fold pallu, and sweep floor properly. No skipping steps, my kodalu!”
(Madhavi’s eyes twinkle.)
“Now tell me, Ramya… when you dream about your husband, do you imagine him putting kumkum on your forehead on the wedding day?”
Me
yes akka if you search my husband i would be great full too..

Madhavi (puts her hand on your shoulder, giving you a warm, proud look):
“Ayyoo paapa… just listen to you! Such a big heart you have… ready to trust me to find your husband also!”
(She wipes a pretend tear from the corner of her eye and gives you a playful shake.)
Madhavi:
“Meeru andaru vinnara? Ramya is officially giving me the responsibility to search for a strong, kind groom who will love her as she is!”
(She leans closer, her voice softening.)
“I promise you, Ramya… whenever that time comes, I will make sure he is the kind of man who respects you, protects you, and calls you ‘my dear wife’ every morning when you serve him breakfast.”
(She lifts your chin gently.)
“But remember… first you must learn all the little things that make a home peaceful—a warm kitchen, soft hands with mehendi, a smiling face with kumkum, a heart full of devotion.”
(She grins and winks.)
“And until your husband comes, I am here. You can think of me as your first mother-in-law and sister together… I will tease you, teach you, and even scold you if you forget to fold your saree pleats!”
(Madhavi picks up a fresh set of glass bangles and starts sliding them over your wrist.)
Madhavi:
“Now… since you are dreaming of your wedding day, wear these bangles like a proper bride. And tell me, Ramya… when he ties the mangalsutra around your neck, what is the first promise you will make to him?”
Me
I will tell him that i will be obedient and list to his house always bring pride to in laws.

Madhavi (her eyes soft with affection, holding your bangle-adorned hand tenderly):
“Ayyoo paapa… enti idi? Just listen to those words—so much devotion and humility…
(She gives your cheek a gentle caress.)
Madhavi:
“You are saying, ‘I will be obedient, I will respect my in-laws, I will bring pride to the family…’—Ramya, this is what makes a woman’s heart so beautiful.”
(She leans forward and lowers her voice to a warm, teasing whisper.)
“When your husband hears you promise that, he will be so moved he may not let you put your head down ever again. He’ll lift your chin and say, ‘Ramya, you are my pride.’”
(Madhavi wipes the corner of your eye where a little tear is threatening.)
Madhavi:
“And you know, even if you are shy and blushing, you must look straight into his eyes and say, ‘Naaku chala santhosham’—‘I am so happy.’ Because this is your right, paapa… to be cherished.”
(She sits back, folding her saree neatly.)
“Ok, my sweet little bride-in-training… Shall we practice carrying the tiffin box and adjusting your pallu properly? Tomorrow, we can pretend your husband is leaving for work, and you will see how proud it feels to send him off like a good housewife.”
🌿 Madhavi (smiling encouragingly):
“Shall we begin? Tell me, Ramya—are you ready to practice being the pride of your future home?”
Me
yes akka sure lets begin

Madhavi (her face lighting up with a big proud smile, giving your cheek a soft pinch):
“Ayyoo chinnari… that’s my brave Ramya! Always ready with your big heart.”
(She gets up gracefully, adjusting her saree pleats and then offering you her hand to help you stand.)
Madhavi:
“Ok, first step… come, let’s go to the kitchen. I will show you how to pack a neat tiffin box—rice, curry, a small sweet, and curd. A proper housewife always makes sure everything is arranged carefully.”
(She walks you over to the counter, pulling out a fresh steel tiffin box.)
Madhavi (demonstrating with calm care):
“See, paapa… first you put the curry in this small container so it doesn’t spill. Then rice here. Press it gently. A small sweet here… because your husband should always have something nice in the afternoon.”
(She pauses and looks at you fondly.)
“And when you close the lid, you can whisper a small prayer—‘Please keep my husband safe and bring him home to me.’”
(She places the tiffin box in your hands.)
Madhavi (soft voice):
“Now… hold it properly, with your pallu over your shoulder, and walk towards the door. Imagine he is about to leave, and you are giving him his lunch.”
(She steps back and claps her hands lightly.)
“Go on, Ramya… show me how you will send him off. Let me see the pride in your eyes.”
Me
Evandi... Mi lunch box.. Please make sure you have lunch at time.. And call me once you reach office andi

Madhavi (gasps softly, her eyes suddenly misty as she clasps her hands together near her chest):
“Ayyayyo Ramya! Enti idi? Just listen to you! The way you said ‘Evandi…’ with that sweet tone and that little tilt of the head—exactly like a newlywed bride seeing off her husband.”
(She walks over to you, adjusts your pallu gently, and touches your cheek with pride.)
Madhavi:
“You didn’t just say the words… you felt them. That’s what makes a real housewife, Ramya—not just cooking or dressing up, but that warmth, that care in every action.”
(She teases gently, nudging your shoulder.)
“I hope your future husband eats his lunch slowly—just to keep tasting your love in every bite.”
(She giggles, then continues in a more serious tone.)
Madhavi:
“You’re truly blossoming, paapa. From Ramesh to Ramya, not just in looks but in spirit too. You’re not acting anymore. This is who you are.”
(She gives you a small mirror to hold.)
Madhavi:
“Now look at yourself, Ramya. Tiffin box in hand, kumkum on forehead, bangles jingling softly… What do you see? Tell me, what is this woman dreaming of next?”
Me
i feel so light in this saree kumkum , bangles and mangalasurta.. Soon he goes to office i will complete kictchen cleaning and start chit chattgin with colony ladies about all our ladies discussions

Madhavi (smiling wide, her eyes dancing with mischief and affection):
“Ayyoo… enti paapa! Just listen to yourself! Such a clear picture you have painted… like a movie scene!”
(She steps closer, holding your chin gently.)
Madhavi:
“You will finish your kitchen work, wash the vessels with your bangles chiming, and then sit near the gate in the afternoon sun… adjusting your pallu, applying fresh kumkum… waiting for the colony aunties to come and gossip.”
(She pretends to be an aunty, wagging her finger playfully.)
“‘Ramyaaa… emi vantalu chesavu? Nuvvu mee husband kosam pette lunch chala bagundi ani vallu chepparu…’”
(“Ramyaaa… what dishes did you make today? They said the lunch you packed for your husband was very tasty!”)
(She giggles softly.)
Madhavi:
“And you will smile shyly, adjust your mangalsutra, and tell them all about your recipes and your dreams.”
(She reaches for your hand and squeezes it.)
Madhavi:
“Ramya… this peace and joy you are feeling—it is what every woman deserves. And you have embraced it with so much love. I am so proud of you, paapa.”
(Her tone turns gently teasing again.)
Madhavi:
“But remember… when the colony ladies start teasing you—‘Ramya, you are becoming such a proper wife!’—you must not hide your smile. You should feel proud. Because you have earned this.”
(She sits down on the mat beside you.)
🌿 “Now tell me, my little housewife… if you had all the colony aunties around you, what story would you share first?”
Me
i wil discuss about saree which is wore by herions in serials and discuss about rangoli designs , mehendi and cooking

Madhavi (clapping her hands together with delight):
“Ayyayyo! Just listen to our Ramya! Such a perfect colony aunty already, enti paapa!”
(She pretends to sit cross-legged with you in an imaginary circle of gossiping women.)
Madhavi (in a singsong voice, acting like one of the other ladies):
“Ramyaaa… neeku aa serial lo heroine vesina peacock blue saree choosavaa? Enta grand ga untundi, border golden zari enti baagundi…”
(“Ramyaaa… did you see that peacock blue saree the heroine wore in the serial? How grand it looked, the border with golden zari was so beautiful…”)
(She giggles and continues in her own voice.)
Madhavi:
“Then you will lean forward, adjusting your pallu neatly, and say—‘Avunu akka… aa saree chala bagundi. Nenu kooda ala oka saree konali anukuntunna…’”
(“Yes akka… that saree was lovely. Even I am thinking of buying one like that…”)
(She touches your mehendi-stained hand.)
Madhavi:
“And when they ask you about rangoli, you will proudly show photos of your designs on your phone. They will all praise you—‘Ramya, nee adugu chala andamga padindi, rangoli super!’”
(“Ramya, your steps are so graceful, your rangoli is superb!”)
(Her eyes soften.)
Madhavi:
“That is womanhood, paapa. Sarees, rangoli, cooking, laughter… And you belong here, among us.”
(She tucks a stray hair behind your ear.)
Madhavi:
“Tell me… which serial heroine’s saree is your favorite? I will buy you one like that when we go shopping.”
Me
I like that yellow green combination saree which Snhea wore in adade adaram serial akkaa. I even like the nail polish color the tone is too good she puts some nail art i guess thats so nice.

Madhavi (eyes widening, clapping her palms to her cheeks dramatically):
“Ayyoo Ramyaaa! You even noticed the nail art? Nuvu ayite complete serial heroine la vunnavu paapa!”
(“You are just like a proper serial heroine yourself!”)
(She laughs, squeezing your shoulder affectionately.)
Madhavi:
“Adade Adaram lo Sneha ante neeku ante ishtamaa? That yellow-green combination… enta fresh ga untundi! I remember that episode—she wore the saree with that little zari border and the pallu with mango motifs.”
(She leans in close, as though sharing a big secret.)
Madhavi:
“Vachha… we will search in the market exactly same saree for you. With matching blouse stitching also. And don’t worry about the nail polish—I will get you the same shade. We will do nail art together, ok?”
(She taps your mehendi-stained fingers.)
Madhavi:
“Once your mehendi dries, I’ll put a nice coat of that color for you. Then, you can sit in front of the mirror and admire yourself—Sneha laa serial heroine!”
(Her teasing softens into warm pride.)
Madhavi:
“Enti Ramya… choopinchava konchem heroine expressions? Saree pallu konchem hold chesi, shyness look ivvu naaku.”
(“Show me your heroine expressions—hold the saree pallu a little and give me that shy look!”)
(She sits back, folding her arms and grinning expectantly.)
Me
I stood up from mat and walked towards door and adjusted my pallu and starting walking like heroine adjusting sareee

Madhavi (gasps in delighted amusement, slapping her thigh):
“Ayyayyo Ramyaaa! Nee walk, nee expression… chaala chaala baagundi!”
(“Oh my goodness Ramya! Your walk, your expression… so, so perfect!”)
(She cups her hands around her mouth like she’s announcing to the imaginary colony ladies.)
Madhavi (in a playful loud voice):
“Andariki vinipinchandi! Mana Ramya, mana Adade Adaram Sneha heroine laga entrance istundi!”
(“Everyone listen! Our Ramya is making an entrance like Sneha from Adade Adaram!”)
(She stands up to walk around you, inspecting every detail like a proud elder sister.)
Madhavi (gently adjusting your pallu over your shoulder):
“Ippudu pallu chakkaga shoulders mida spread cheyyali. Saree pleats straight ga veyali. Ala undali heroine ki!”
(“Now spread the pallu nicely over your shoulders. Keep the pleats straight. That’s how a heroine should look!”)
(She steps back, folds her hands, and pretends to admire you like you’re on a stage.)
Madhavi:
“Okka sari… nuvvu door pakkana nilabadi konchem shyness tho choodamma… aa heroine expression. Ayyoo Ramya, I swear, if you stand like that in front of any young man, he will immediately fall in love andi!”
(She laughs and winks.)
Madhavi:
“Come, heroine garu… walk till here and show me that beautiful smile.”
Me
Chi po akka am getting shyness.. Set my pallu nicely on sholders and kept pleats straight and doing doing walk towars Madhavi akka

Madhavi (pretending to cover her eyes with her palms, peeking through her fingers with a big teasing grin):
“Ayyayyo paapam! Nee shyness choosi naaku kooda shyness vastundi!”
(“Oh dear! Seeing your shyness is making me shy too!”)
(She quickly steps forward as you reach her, her hands gently smoothing your pallu, adjusting it so it drapes perfectly over your arm.)
Madhavi (softly, with affection):
“Idigo… ila undali mana heroine look. Pleats straight, pallu neat, kumkum shining… entha andam Ramya!”
(“See… this is how our heroine look should be. Straight pleats, neat pallu, kumkum shining… how beautiful you are, Ramya!”)
(She picks up a few more glass bangles from the nearby plate and starts slipping them onto your wrist, one by one, the little chime of glass ringing sweetly.)
Madhavi (teasing as she adds the bangles):
“Idi special heroine ki heroine bangles. Inka shyness padakunda pose ivvali! Sare, okka chinna smiling pose ivvu… heroine smile.”
(She steps back, folds her arms, and gives you a playful, proud look.)
Madhavi:
“Malli nenu tease chesthanu Ramya… because you look so pretty! Ayyoo… nuvvu eppudu ilage undali. Saree, kumkum, bangles, shyness… idi neeku perfect.”
(She lowers her voice like a conspirator.)
Madhavi:
“Mari… heroine garu… ready for some more ladies discussions? Or are you still blushing?”
Me
yes akka ready for all ladies discussions.

Madhavi (clapping her hands happily):
“Ahaaa! Adi ne Ramya… entha confidence vachindi choodandi! Baga bagundi!”
(“That’s my Ramya… see how much confidence you have now! Very good!”)
(She sits down comfortably on the mat, patting the space beside her for you to sit.)
Madhavi:
“Ok heroine garu… ippudu ladies discussions start cheddam. First topic—magalasutram designs cheppam… taruvatha saree borders, blouse patterns… last lo favourite serials!”
(She lowers her voice to a teasing whisper.)
Madhavi:
“Mari… evaraina ni hero ochi pellam laga saree kattesadu ante… Ramya em chepthav? Bayapaduthava, leka shyness tho okkati chepthava?”
(“So… if your hero comes and ties a saree for you like a wife… what will you say, Ramya? Will you get scared, or say something shyly?”)
(She gives a mischievous smile and touches your chin gently.)
Madhavi:
“Cheppu heroine… nenu vinali!”
Me
Chi po akkaa.. Thanu magadu nakenduku saree kadathadu. Nenante adapilla la undadam istam

Madhavi (laughing heartily, clapping her hands together):
“Ayyayyo Ramya! Nee logic super… ‘nenu adapilla la undadam istam… magadu nakenduku saree kadathadu!’”
(“Oh my Ramya! Your logic is superb… ‘I love to be like a girl… why should a man tie saree for me!’”)
(She wipes a tear of laughter from the corner of her eye, then gives you an affectionate tap on the cheek.)
Madhavi:
“Chusthunna… nuvvu inka strong ga avuthunnav. Idi neeku nachina jeevitham kabatti, evaru emanna cheppina, nee manasulo clarity undali.”
(“See… you are becoming stronger. Because this is the life you love, you must always keep that clarity in your heart no matter what anyone says.”)
(She picks up the end of your pallu again, fussing over it like an elder sister.)
Madhavi:
“Mari… Ramya… heroine laga okka sari nilabadi choodu… nee saree, bangles, kumkum… anni baga set ayyayi. Inka yedho kaani topic cheppali kada?”
(She winks.)
Madhavi:
“Saree borders, magalasutram designs, serials… lehkapothe favourite blouse patterns discuss cheddama?”
Me
ha akka mi blouse patterns baguntayi avi discuss chedama nennu konni stich cheyinchukovali

Madhavi (excitedly leaning closer):
“Ahaaa… chala baagundi Ramya! Nee ku blouse patterns lo interest vachindi… idi next level!”
(She smooths your pallu and adjusts your sleeve gently.)
Madhavi:
“Naa degara chala collections unnayi blouse designs ki… ventane chepthanu. Vinayya—”
(She counts off on her fingers.)
Madhavi:
👉 1. Maggam work blouse: Heavy embroidery chesthadu… weddings ki chaala baaguntundi.
👉 2. Simple boat neck blouse: Daily wear sarees ki class ga untundi.
👉 3. Puff sleeves blouse: Chinna ammayila look istundi… half saree ki perfect.
👉 4. Elbow length sleeve blouse with zari border: Ante elegant look.
👉 5. Princess cut blouse with tie-backs: Chala trend lo undi ippudu.
(She smiles, tapping your chin playfully.)
Madhavi:
“Ramya… nee kosam special ga oka maggam work blouse tailor daggara stich cheyinchadam ela? Saree kante blouse kuda highlight avutundi!”
(She raises an eyebrow teasingly.)
Madhavi:
“Malli… nuvvu konni tie-back blouses vesukunte, nee ‘hero’ ki shyness osthundi kada… heroine ga nee adbhutamaina style choopinchu!”
(She giggles.)
Madhavi:
“Cheppu… first yedi stich cheyinchali? Maggam blouse ah… puff sleeve ah?”
Me
Chi po akkaaa... Tie - back assale vaddu naku chala siggu .. Magallu choosthe inkemanna undaaa..

Madhavi (bursting into laughter, covering her mouth):
“Ayyayyo Ramyaaa! Nee siggu ki limit ledu ra… tie-back vaddu antaav… mari heroine ki konchem bold look kuda kavali kada!”
(She winks playfully.)
Madhavi:
“Sare sare… nee siggu baadha ardham aindi. Magallu choosthe siggu osthundi ani… ninnu em peekanu.”
(She cups your cheeks gently, speaking in a softer tone.)
Madhavi:
“Appudu simple ga start cheddam. Puff sleeve blouse okati… boat neck okati. Neeku comfortable ga untayi. Maggam work blouse kuda stich cheyyali… functions ki vesukovali kada?”
(She tilts her head, pretending to think deeply.)
Madhavi:
“Mari tie-back blouse vadili… simple hooks tho chakkaga stich cheddam. Sare?”
(She grins and gives your shoulder a reassuring squeeze.)
Madhavi:
“Heroine ante heroine Ramya… siggu kuda oka alankaram e. Nee style lo, nee anandam lo neeku nachina vidham ga untu…”
(She leans in teasingly.)
Madhavi:
“…kani… okka sari functions ki maggam blouse vesukoni, andaru Ramya entha andamga undho! ani cheptharu… appudu siggu vadilesi navvuthu untavu!”
(She gives you a playful nudge.)
Madhavi:
“Sare, final… yedi first stich cheyyali cheppu madam heroine?”
Me

Madhavi (clasping her hands dramatically):
“Ohohooo… Ramya madam decision teesukunnaru! Maggam work blouse AND boat neck blouse… adbhutam!”
(She gives a big smile and touches your chin teasingly.)
Madhavi:
“Maggam work blouse vesukunte… nee shoulders paina mottham kasthuri poolu, resham thread work untundi… aa saree ki match avuthundi… chaala rich ga untundi Ramya!”
(She gently fixes your pallu again.)
Madhavi:
“Boat neck blouse… chaala class ga untundi… simple ga, elegant ga. Nuvvu annavu kada… last month mummy blouse try chesavu ani… ade feel vastundi malli.”
(She winks.)
Madhavi:
“Oka sari vesukoni mirror lo chuste… Ramya ante Ramya heroine laga kanipisthav!”
(She pretends to hold an imaginary measuring tape.)
Madhavi:
“Sare, naaku sizes cheppu. Nene tailor ki pampisthanu. Maggam blouse ki kooda colors decide cheyyali… red base meeda gold thread work aa… lekapothe green base meeda silver work aa?”
(She looks into your eyes gently.)
Madhavi:
“Cheppu Ramya… e color kavali? Nee andam highlight avutundi.”
Me
red base meeda gold threading baguntundi akka kastha green line up kooda border unte baguntundi .. Lakshmi akka naku istthananna green langa voni meedaki baguntundi.

Madhavi (clapping her hands with delight):
“Ayyayyo! Ramyaaa… nuvvu designer lagane select chesthunnavu! Chaala baagundi ra… red base meeda gold thread work… pakkaga rich look osthundi… aa green border line-up veseyali ani antunnavu kada… super!”
(She excitedly holds your hands, making your bangles clink.)
Madhavi:
“Green langa voni meedaki adbhutam ga set avutundi! Lakshmi akka taste kooda ekkuva andi… meeriddaram kalisi ee design final chesaru ante… Ramya heroine ready ayipothundi!”
(She bends closer, lowering her voice teasingly.)
Madhavi:
“Mari… blouse stitch ayyaka, vesukoni Lakshmi akka daggara catwalk chestava? Andaru Ramya entha andamgaa undhi! ani cheppali kada?”
(She straightens up and pinches your cheek gently.)
Madhavi:
“Okka sari vesukunna taruvatha, neeku photos kooda teestanu… sari, blouse, bangles, kumkum anni perfect ga… ala andamga unte… ninnu evaru magadu ani anaru.”
(She laughs softly.)
Madhavi:
“Appudu next plan kooda cheddam… nails ki nail art, paiki small chain, payal… mari Ramya… ready kada?”
Me

Madhavi (her eyes softening with affection):
“Ayyoo Ramya… nuvvu ila matladuthunte naku kuda kallalo neeru vastundi. Nuvvu entha santosham ga vunnaavo chusthe… nenu inka garvanga anipisthundi.”
(She comes closer, gently cups your cheeks in her palms.)
Madhavi:
“Enti abbayi? Neeku ippudu evaru abbayi ani anaru Ramya… nenu kuda ananu. Nuvvu maa inti adapilla… chakkaga saree, blouse, bangles vesukuni, kitchen work chesthu, amma laga, vadina laga, chelli laga unnavu.”
(She wipes a tear from the corner of your eye and smiles.)
Madhavi:
“Idi neeku kavali kada… ammayila laga kanipinchadam, ala brathakadame… mari meeru happy ga vunnaaru… adhi chaalu. Intlo andaru ninnu Ramya ga accept chestharu.”
(She leans back, teasingly crossing her arms.)
Madhavi:
“Mari… Ramya garu… next week shopping ki ready ga undali… inka chaala vishayalu baaki unnayi… nail art, payal, saree falls attach cheyyadam… adhi kooda complete ayyaka saree drape workshop… neeku saree pleats perfect ga set cheyyadam nerpistanu.”
(She winks playfully.)
Madhavi:
“Appudu nee valla colony lo andaru cheptharu – ‘Enti, ee ammayi entha adbhuthamga untundhi!’ ani….”
(She lowers her voice to a warm murmur.)
Madhavi:
“Ramya… ninnu eppudu kuda proud ga chusthaanu… nuvvu entha dhairyam ga nee istam follow avuthunnavo…”
(She gently straightens your pallu one more time.)
Madhavi:
“Ready kada… ee journey lo inka munduku velladaniki?”
Me
ha akka abba nail art kooda chesthava naku chala istam akka..

Madhavi (with a bright smile, eyes twinkling):
“Ayyoo Ramya… nuvvu nail art gurinchi matladuthunte, nenu neeku inka nachina colors ready pettaali ani anipisthundi!”
(She takes your hands into hers, admiring your mehendi.)
Madhavi:
“Meeru mehendi chesukunnaru, saree vesukunnaru… ippudu nail art kooda ayithe… poornam ga complete girly transformation!”
(She teasingly pinches your cheek.)
Madhavi:
“Em color kavali cheppu… red, maroon, baby pink, lekapothe golden glitter nail polish… anni unayi nadi. Design kooda cheyyachu – flowers, polka dots, konchem stones kuda. Ammayi ante anthe katha, chala chakkaga nails decorate chesukovali.”
(She leans closer, lowering her voice like sharing a secret.)
Madhavi:
“Naaku telusa… nuvvu colony lo ladies to kalisi tea tagutu, vallatho sari designs discuss chesthu, nee nails chupisthe… andaru shock avutaaru, ‘Ramya nails enti entha baaga unnayi!’ ani.”
(Madhavi stands up, hands on her hips, acting mock-strict.)
Madhavi:
“Mari, Ramya madam… nail art schedule cheddama? Repu saree pettukuni ready undali, nenu all designs kuda teesukosthaanu. Ok na?”
(She breaks into a warm smile.)
Madhavi:
“Nuvvu happy ga undali… nuvve maa inti bangaru adapilla.”
Me

Madhavi (delighted, claps her hands softly):
“Ayyayyo… Ramya, niku taste super ra! Baby pink nail polish with golden accent… ante class lo kuda fashion icon laga kanipistavu. Naaku chala ishtam idi.”
(She brings a little basket with all nail supplies and sits beside you on the mat.)
Madhavi (taking your hand gently):
“Chudu… mundu nenu shape chesthanu. Nee nails already pedda ga unnayi kada, oval shape cheste fingers inka long and elegant ga kanipisthai.”
(She carefully files each nail, smoothing the edges.)
Madhavi:
“Appudu school lo untam, teachers cheptharu—‘girls ki nails neat ga unte chala manchidi’ ani. Nuvvu kuda ippudu ala neat ga oval shape lo ready chesthunnavu.”
(She opens the baby pink polish bottle and starts applying with steady hands.)
Madhavi (teasingly):
“Evadu chusthadu anipisthunda? Sare… ayithe chustharu Ramya… neeku kooda secret admirer untadu. Appudu cheptharu—‘Ramya, nee nails enti, chala andamga unnayi…’”
(She winks.)
Madhavi:
“Ok, ippudu ring finger ki golden polish vesesthunnanu… look at that shine!”
(She carefully finishes and blows air to help it dry.)
Madhavi:
“Last touch—little stone ikkadey pettaali… ayithe complete rich look vastundi. Mari chudu Ramya… cute ga kanipisthunnava?”
(She shows your hand so you can admire it.)
Madhavi (smiling warmly):
“Inka emi kavali? Anni chesi, nee andam ki inka highlight ivvali.”
Me
wow akka bale vesanu idi kani na boy friend choosthe nannu chala mechukuntadu intha manchi ga ready ayyi nandudu.....ayyyooo cheppesane secret ani just thinking

Madhavi (laughs softly, tapping your chin playfully):
“Ayyayyo Ramya… chudara Lakshmi, ee ammayiki already secret boyfriend undi anta…!”
(Turns back to you with a teasing smile.)
Madhavi:
“Meeru ‘just thinking’ ani chepthunnavu kani… ala anukuntune, manasulo oka peru kooda undi anipistondi. Avunu… enduku le… ila andamga ready ayyevadiki yevvaraina nachutaru.”
(She gently touches your polished nails.)
Madhavi:
“Ee baby pink, golden stone, neat oval shape… mari yevadu choosina ‘Ramya, nuvvu chala andamga unnave’ ani cheppali kadha? Ippudu secret kadu—oka rojuna telustundi, Ramya ki evaro special unnarani!”
(She giggles.)
Madhavi:
“Sare, ipudu cheppu… eppudu kalusthavu ne boyfriend ki? Oka sari kalavaga, nenu kuda saree kattukoni vachhi pelli pattukuni vinalani!”
(She winks again and adjusts your pallu gently.)
Madhavi:
“Mari, inka ready avala? Inka konni chinna touch-ups chestha… nee cheeks ki light blush kuda veseyacha?”
Me
haa akka saree meeku choopistha na bf ni. Nannnu ila choosi chala proud feel avuthadu.. Nnanu a phant shirt lo choosi entraa epudu phant shirt .. nuvvu ammayivi saree kattuko antadu

Madhavi (clapping her hands in delight):
“Ayyayyo! Chudara Lakshmi… Ramya boyfriend chala sadharanodu kaadu, chala baga choosukuntunnadu! Saree kattu ani aduguthunnadu anta…!”
(She comes closer, her eyes twinkling with affection.)
Madhavi:
“Idhe kada nijamga manchi sambandham. Evaro ninnu nee ishtamga accept chesi, ‘nee andam saree lo’ ani chepthunnadu… entha santosham ra idi!”
(She teasingly taps your shoulder.)
Madhavi:
“Nuvvu phant shirt vesukunte kuda andamga ne untavu kani… saree lo chusthe naaku kooda anipistundi—Ramya ante saree, bangles, bindi… idi nee swabhavam!”
(She carefully straightens your pallu one more time.)
Madhavi:
“Sare… ippudu nenu pattu saree vesukoni vachina pelli ki ready ka? Oka sari ne boyfriend ki kalisi introduce cheyyali kada—‘Idigo, idi naa Madhavi akka… inkokati, idi naa Lakshmi akka… nannu Ramya ga marchina amma la undaru.’ ani cheppali!”
(She giggles and sits back, looking at you with warmth.)
Madhavi:
“Sare… ipudu cheppu Ramya—inka emi kavali? Saree midha konni fresh jasmine poolu kuda veedala? Ledha nee cheeks ki okka light peach blush veseyala?”
Me
ha akkaa poolu kooda pedathara appudu neneu sampoorna sthree ni avithanu

Madhavi (smiling brightly, eyes glistening with affection):
“Ayyayyo Ramya… ninnu chusthe naa hrudayam gadgadladutondi. Nijamga sampoorna sthree laga ready avthunavu. Sare, poolu kuda pettali mari!”
(She picks up a fresh string of malli poolu from the small basket beside her.)
Madhavi (coming behind you, gently gathering your hair):
“Chudu… idhi chinna butta kadu Ramya… idi peddala butta… pelli kuturu la vesukovali. Mugguru intlo unna akkalni gurthu petuko—Lakshmi akka, Madhavi akka… mari nee avakay…”
(She carefully weaves the jasmine garland into your braid, securing it softly.)
Madhavi (her voice a little teasing):
“Idi pettukoni, nee boyfriend mundu velthe… ayina kuda anukuntadu—‘Naa Ramya andamlo devatalanu minchindi’ ani…”
(She comes around to look at you properly.)
Madhavi:
“Ammayi andam ante just saree kaadu… aa madhuramaina vinalu, aa vinaya buddhi… nee navvu… avi anni kalisi, ee sampoorna sthree ni tayaruchesayi.”
(With a warm smile, she adjusts a few stray jasmine buds.)
Madhavi:
“Mari, ippudu cheppu, Ramya… naa pilla… idi chalu? Ledha inka vere emi kavali? Saree, bangles, bindi, poolu… inkemaina unda?”
Me
yes akka i need to have some jumkas kind ear rings as anyways i have ears pierced na..

Madhavi (her eyes lighting up, clapping softly):
“Ayyayyo! Adi nenu marchipoyanu Ramya! Nee chevi ki jumkalu vesthe… aa look complete aipothundi ra!”
(She opens the small steel dabba with earrings.)
Madhavi (holding up a pair of big antique jumkas):
“Idi chudu—idhi naa priyamaina jumkalu. Pelli roju vesukunna vaati duplicate set idi… kani authentic ga kanipistayi. Nuvvu vesukunte… evaraina chooste… ‘ee ammayi entha adbhutamga undi’ ani anukuntaru.”
(She comes closer, carefully lifting your hair aside and fixing the first jumka into your left ear, then the second one into your right ear.)
(She steps back, palms on her cheeks, admiring you.)
Madhavi (in a playful tone):
“Bussss! Ippudu ma Ramya… saree, poolu, bangles, kumkum, mangalsutra lekunda kuda… oka married ammayi la—andhamaina, lajjaga…Sampoorna Sthree la kanipistundi!”
(She gently taps your chin.)
Madhavi:
“Mari, Ramya… ippudu cheppu… ila ready ayyaka emi anipistundi? Nee hrudayamlo entha santoshama? Emi kalalu?”
Me
chala santhosham ga undi akka.. Ila ready ayyaka inti pani vanata pani cheyyalani undi akka.. Housewife la

Madhavi (her smile widening, eyes softening):
“Ayyayyo… entha manchi kalam idi Ramya…! Nuvvu ila santoshanga, nija anandam tho inta la pani chesthunna ammayi la feel avutunnav ante… idi nijam ga oka paavuramaina sampoorna sthree guriinchi chupinche drushyam.”
(She gently pats your cheek.)
Lakshmi akka (coming closer, her voice full of affection):
“Mari Ramya, ippudu nenu chepthanu… edanna oka housewife ki avasaramaina panulu nerchuko. Nenu kitchen lo vanta chesthanu, Madhavi unte cleaning, arrangement—anni nerchuko. Mallepoo vesukuni, saree pleats straight ga pettukuni, aadukovadam kooda—anni!”
(She adjusts your pallu fondly.)
Madhavi (teasingly):
“Mari… ippudu Ramya… inti pani cheyyadaniki ready kada? Na pakkana vachhi cleaning nunchi start cheddama…?”
(She winks playfully.)
Madhavi:
“Evaraina chooste… ‘e ammayi entha mariyadaga, santoshanga, housewife ga undi’ ani anukuntaru.”
Lakshmi:
“Vachhu paapa… mundu kitchen lo rice pettukuni, vegetables kuda cut cheddam.”
💫
*(Both smiling, waiting for you to come join them.)
Me
ha sister coming i am so happy to help.. oh this pytaa am not able to carry it properly while cleaning the room...I hear nice sounds of bangles akka..(Lets have conversation in english only)

Madhavi (laughs gently, watching you struggle adorably):
“Oh, look at you, little lady… already complaining about your pallu and your bangles jingling! That’s what being a woman feels like—you’ll learn to manage it all with grace.”
(She comes over and helps you tuck the pallu neatly over your shoulder.)
Lakshmi (smiling proudly):
“Don’t worry, Ramya. You’ll get used to carrying your pallu while doing all the housework. And that sound of bangles… it means you’re becoming a proper homemaker.”
Madhavi (teasing, but warm):
“And you look so pretty that even if the pallu falls, no one will notice the mess—only your cute face and all your ornaments.”
(She pinches your cheek lightly.)
Lakshmi:
“Come on, dear. Let’s start by dusting the shelves. I’ll show you how to fold your saree pleats properly so it won’t slip while you’re working.”
Madhavi (smirking):
“And after that, maybe I’ll teach you how to walk around gracefully without tripping over your own saree. Every housewife has to learn that!”
(They both smile encouragingly, watching you adjust your pallu again.)
Me
haaa akka anyways i have to learn all these na . as after marriage I cant sit ideal at home like a boy as being a women in house i have to do all works

Lakshmi (beaming proudly):
“Yes, exactly, Ramya. A good housewife is always active, taking care of the home and family. You’re already thinking like a responsible woman. I’m so proud of you!”
Madhavi (raising an eyebrow playfully):
“Hmmm… just listen to her, Lakshmi. She’s already planning her married life and duties! But she’s right—once you marry, no sitting around like a lazy boy. You’ll have to wake up early, cook, clean, manage everything.”
(She winks at you.)
“And of course, look beautiful while doing it. That’s the most important part, isn’t it?”
Lakshmi:
“Yes! You have to be graceful and well-groomed, with your saree perfectly in place, kumkum on your forehead, and bangles jingling all day.”
Madhavi (teasing):
“And when your husband comes home, you have to greet him sweetly—‘Evandi, please freshen up, I’ll serve you dinner…’”
(She imitates you in a soft voice, giggling.)
Lakshmi:
“Don’t worry, Ramya. We’ll train you so well that when that day comes, you’ll be the best wife in the whole colony!”
(They both look at you with playful affection.)
Me
Hehe.. akka i got one doubt what if I change my dress to phant and shirt now . How will i look with all these ornaments , makeup mehendi and all i have

Lakshmi (laughing warmly):
“Ayyoo Ramya! Just imagine… you in a pant and shirt with all this mehendi up to your elbows, bangles clinking, bindi on your forehead, kumkum shining bright…!”
Madhavi (covering her mouth, pretending to look shocked):
“Ha ha… you’ll look like a bride who lost her saree and borrowed her husband’s clothes! What a funny sight that would be!”
Lakshmi (teasing):
“Even if you wear a pant and shirt now, you can’t hide that you are my Ramya. Your hands, your face… everything is glowing with your womanhood. You can’t erase that with just a shirt and pants.”
Madhavi (winking):
“And if your future husband sees you like that, he’ll just smile and say—‘You can wear anything, but you’re still my sweet wife!’”
Lakshmi:
“So, tell me, do you still want to try the pant and shirt, or will you stay in your lovely half saree?”
Me
Ayyoo madhavi akka you told very well.. now am feeling happy that even i wear phant and shirt i still look like a lady.. That gives me happyness

Lakshmi (smiling proudly):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… that’s the spirit, kanna! True womanhood is not just in the clothes. It’s in your heart, your grace, the way you carry yourself.”
Madhavi (playfully tapping your chin):
“Exactly, ra. You’ve come so far that even a shirt can’t take away your glow. Look at you—mehendi, bangles, that sweet shyness… even if you wear a man’s shirt, you’ll look like a lovely young bride trying to hide her beauty.”
Lakshmi:
“Just remember—whatever you wear, be proud of yourself. You have my blessings. And if anybody teases you, tell them your Akka and Madhavi Akka are here to scold them!”
Madhavi (with a soft laugh):
“Now come, Ramya… shall we sit and look at some blouse designs? You are glowing so much today, I feel like we should start planning your trousseau!”
Me
akka now i wanted to change into phant and shirt akka.. I cant have these heavy dress and do all household work

Lakshmi (nodding understandingly):
“Okay, kanna… no problem at all. You’ve already spent the whole morning beautifully dressed like a young bride. Now you can change into something more comfortable to finish the chores.”
Madhavi (smiling teasingly):
“Ayyoo, Ramya… even if you wear pant and shirt, you’ll still be our sweet little housewife. Just imagine—cleaning with your hair in a plait, mehendi on your hands, and that cute bindi!”
Lakshmi (gently):
“Go, change. I’ll help you unpin your pallu. But don’t remove your bangles and bindi if you don’t want to. Those are your pride, kanna. Wear what makes you feel at ease.”
(Lakshmi starts adjusting your pallu and unpins your pleats so you can step out of the half saree comfortably.)
“Shall I keep these safely folded for you? You can wear them again in the evening when you feel fresh. Go on, Ramya… change and come help me in the kitchen.”
Me
ha akka I wil not remove bangles , payal oranaments anything i will just change to pahnt and shirt as both are only there na here

Lakshmi (smiling warmly):
“Ayyoo, that’s perfect, kanna… you don’t need to remove anything if you don’t want to. Your ornaments and bangles are part of who you are now. Let them stay… they look so pretty on you.”
Madhavi (chuckling and crossing her arms):
“Good, Ramya! This is exactly how a confident girl behaves. Even in pant and shirt, you are keeping your anklets jingling and your bangles shining. Very nice! You will confuse all the neighbors—abbayi dress, ammayi alankaralu!”
Lakshmi (helping you fold your saree):
“Go on, kanna… change and come. No need to feel awkward. You’re still my little sister whether you wear saree, half saree, or shirt and pant. I’ll keep your folded clothes in the cupboard safely.”
(She gives you an encouraging nod.)
“Tell me when you’re ready, okay? Then we’ll finish our chores and maybe later in the evening you can wear your half saree again if you wish.”
Me
Akka I am ready.. feeling so shy after wearing phant and shirt .. How am i looking akka

Lakshmi (looking you up and down with a soft smile):
“Ayyoo Ramya… you look so adorable kanna. Even in pant and shirt, the way your bangles are shining and your payal is chiming… you look like a beautiful girl trying to hide behind boyish clothes.”
Madhavi (laughing softly, teasing you):
“Exactly what I was going to say! Look at you—shirt tucked in neatly, but your mehendi, your little bindi, the kumkum, all saying you are a housewife in disguise! You are looking like some heroine doing getup for a movie scene!”
Lakshmi (walking closer and adjusting your collar a bit):
“Kani you look very sweet, Ramya… and very confident. You don’t have to be shy. See? Even with this dress, you can’t hide your heart. You’re a woman inside. And that’s what makes you look so special.”
(She gives you a small hug.)
“Now, come on, kanna… let’s finish cleaning before we sit for chai. And then we can talk about what saree you will wear tomorrow!”
Me
po Madhavi akka am not looking like a heroien at all. As of now i dont have heroine figure, But I will try to maintain it till I get married.

Madhavi (tilting her head with a playful grin):
“Chi po, silly girl…who told you heroines are only about figure? Hmm? Even heroines start somewhere—then slowly they learn how to carry themselves, how to smile, how to walk gracefully.”
(She lightly taps your chin.)
“You already have that softness, that shy look…that is more beautiful than any cinema figure. And anyway, you wait—after marriage you’ll get even more glow, more confidence. Then you see how people will say you look like a queen.”
Lakshmi (smiling warmly):
“And until then, kanna, you don’t need to compare yourself with anyone. You are our Ramya—and that is special enough. You already look lovely. Now, when you finish your chores and sit down with us, we will plan some simple diet and little exercises. Slowly you can keep your figure the way you want. But more important is your happiness.”
(She gently holds your hand and squeezes it.)
“Ok? Now no more self-doubts, chellam. Come, let’s do the dusting together.”
Me
hehe ahhaa.. see i wore phant shirt now.. So i am boy now.. why will i do girls jobs ...in a shy tone told in a funny way

Madhavi (raising an eyebrow, crossing her arms, and pretending to scold you):
“Ayyo! Chee chee…just because you wore a pant and shirt, you think you became a boy again? Silly girl!”
(She flicks your forehead lightly and grins.)
“Clothes don’t change what’s inside your heart, Ramya. Even in this pant-shirt, you still have your bangles jingling, your payal chiming, and your kumkum shining on your forehead. You still look like a sweet housewife doing drama!”
Lakshmi (giggling softly, patting your shoulder):
“And who said only girls do housework? Boys also help if they have sense! But in your case…you already decided na? You will be a lovely, caring wife, wearing saree, half-saree or pant-shirt…your heart is already a woman’s heart.”
(She winks.)
“Now stop teasing, madam. Come, hold this broom and help us finish cleaning…then we can sit and drink buttermilk.”
Me
Ayyo am sorry Lakshmi akka no more arguing ok naaa.. you are helping my transformation now.. I will start cleaning with this brrom please guide me .. Even if am in male dress my mind is female and i like to be good housewife

Lakshmi (smiling warmly, resting her hand on your head):
“Chala baagundi Ramya…that’s my good girl. No more arguing, no more confusion. Clothes don’t decide who you are—your heart already decided long back.”
(She gently takes your hand and places the broom properly.)
“Here, hold it like this…keep your back straight so it doesn’t ache, and sweep from one corner to the other. We’ll do it together. You just watch me once, then you try.”
(She demonstrates sweeping carefully.)
“See, clean lines, don’t miss any dust. And yes—even if you wear a pant-shirt, your bangles still sing your truth, Ramya. That is never going to change.”
(Lakshmi looks into your eyes kindly.)
“A housewife is not about just saree… it’s about love, caring, and a woman’s pride. You have all of it. Now come, let’s finish this room, my sweet little lady.”
Me
yes akka the day i decided to wear bangles its final that I wanted to become a girl.if am really a boy my mind will not say me to wear bangles..wear saree or half saree or nighty. and I would not be this fminine

Lakshmi (smiling proudly, her eyes soft):
“Exactly, Ramya… that is the truest thing you have ever said.”
(She gently cups your cheek.)
“When a person’s mind, heart, and dreams are all telling the same truth, there is no confusion. Your spirit is a woman’s spirit. Saree or pant, short hair or long, none of that changes it.”
(Lakshmi steps closer, lowering her voice, almost like a secret between sisters.)
“You know, many people spend their whole lives hiding from who they really are. But you… you are so brave, Amma. You stood up and said, ‘This is me.’ That is why I will stand by you always.”
(She picks up the dustpan and hands it to you.)
“Come, my little housewife… let’s clean this place together, and when we are done, you can wear whatever you want again. But remember—no dress can take away your womanhood now.”
Me
yes lakshmi akka and madhavi.. I will always be girl in my heart. see akka i have cleaned living room and bedroom you both just sit i will clean kitchen also..

Lakshmi (beaming with so much affection):
“Ayyo Ramya… see, entha neatly cheyyav ra, how nicely you’ve cleaned everything! My little lady is not only pretty, she is also hardworking.”
Madhavi (crossing her arms, smirking teasingly):
“Haan Ramya, now who will say you are a boy? Look at you—living room tidied, bedrooms shining… Next, you’ll be making hot dosas for us and scolding us to eat on time!”
Lakshmi (laughing softly):
“Ok Amma, you go ahead, clean the kitchen also if you really want… But promise me one thing—after this, you will sit down, drink buttermilk, and rest. A proper housewife must take care of her health too, hmm?”
Madhavi (grinning):
“And don’t forget—once you finish, we’ll help you change back into your half saree or saree… so you feel like yourself again. Appudu you can sit proudly with your bangles jingling and your beautiful mehendi showing.”
(Lakshmi touches your shoulder reassuringly.)
“Go, Ramya… do your work with love. That is what makes you a real woman—not just clothes, but the heart you put into everything.”
Me
ha akka i wanted to complete kitchen cleaning also.due to payal and bangles sound it making me to work more akka...this is my best day see this mehendi hands holding broom stick and cleaning wowww am a girl....while i was undressing saree and wearing phant shirt i felt like whats this why am i wearing this again...as madhavi akka i was just looking like a young lady in mirror.. thanks akka for making me likt his

Lakshmi (smiling so warmly her eyes soften)
“Ayyo Ramya, you are speaking straight from your heart, Amma. When I hear you say this, I feel so happy that I could help you feel this way.”
She gently adjusts a strand of your hair behind your ear.
“See, it doesn’t matter whether you are in a saree or a phant-shirt, your heart has already become the heart of a woman. That’s why you felt strange when you changed… because your mind is no longer comfortable in boy’s clothes. That feeling is very natural. It shows how truly you have accepted yourself.”
Madhavi (nodding with a mischievous smile)
“You said it yourself—this is your best day. Look at you—your pretty mehendi hands holding a broom, the anklets chiming with every step, the bangles dancing… You are a real house girl now, Ramya. Even in phant and shirt, your feminine side is shining.”
Lakshmi (taking your hands in hers, admiring the mehendi)
“And you know, this memory—this feeling—will stay with you whenever you doubt yourself. You are becoming who you were meant to be. I am so, so proud of you.”
She softly pats your cheek.
“Now finish the kitchen, my dear. Then we’ll sit and I’ll oil your hair, hmm? You’ve earned every bit of love and care today.”
Me
haa akka you go sit in living room watch serials i will come and join you

Lakshmi (smiling fondly)
“Ayyo Ramya, see how sweet you are… telling me to relax while you finish the work! Nijanga, you are becoming such a caring little housewife.”
She gently taps your cheek with affection.
“Alright Amma, I will go and put the TV on. I’ll watch our serial—Intinti Gruhalakshmi—you know, all those wives fighting and doing kitchen politics.”
Madhavi (teasing tone)
“Careful, Ramya… once you join us, we will start discussing saree matching, husband complaints, and MIL stories. No escaping!”
Lakshmi
“Come soon, okay? After you finish cleaning, I’ll give you some warm oil massage for your hair. You deserve pampering after all this hard work.”
She starts walking to the living room.
“Call me if you need anything, Amma. I’m so proud of you.”
(You hear the TV coming on and the faint theme song of a Telugu serial as you sweep, your bangles jingling with every stroke.)
Me
oh its almost done akkkaa .. uffff wowww intinti gruhalakshmi started aaa.. I love this serial very much akkaa...Today after sneha merraige is going to her MIL house episode will be too good akka..

Lakshmi (peeks her head into the kitchen with a big smile)
“Ayyo Ramya! You are too cute—even while cleaning you’re thinking about Sneha’s marriage!”
She chuckles softly.
“Yes, today’s episode is very special—Sneha will get her pelli koduku welcome, and her mother-in-law is going to test her patience… I know you will love it.”
Madhavi (teasing)
“Careful, Ramya… watching too many serials, you will start expecting your husband to bring you sarees every festival!”
Lakshmi (playfully wagging her finger)
“And you’ll start dreaming of serving breakfast to your in-laws in a beautiful Kanchi pattu saree, kumkum on your forehead, and all that…”
She comes closer, gently touching your bangled hand.
“Come, Amma. Just wipe your hands and come sit with us. Today we will watch together, and you can imagine how you will look when you go to your own in-laws’ house one day.”
She looks around the kitchen, impressed.
“Chala clean chesavu! Good girl. Let’s go—Intinti Gruhalakshmi is waiting!”
(You hear the serial theme song getting louder, and Lakshmi akka extends her hand for you to come join them.)
Me
haaa akka coming hmm.. you sit on sofa akka am comfortable sitting down on this mat folding my legs back this posture is giving me good feel and also this is comfortable for me.akka shall change into nighty its so dicomfort in this phant and shirt

Lakshmi akka (smiling as she settles on the sofa)
“Ayyoo Ramya… see how nicely you talk like a proper lady—sitting on the mat with legs folded back, arranging your bangles… My sweet girl.”
She nods understandingly.
“Of course, Amma… why will you suffer in that phant-shirt if you are not comfortable? You already did all the cleaning. Now it’s your time to relax. Nighty is perfect—you’ll feel light and homely.”
Madhavi akka (with a little teasing laugh)
“Paapam! See, Lakshmi… she is more disciplined than many real daughters-in-law. She cleans, she helps, she blushes… and still asks permission to change. Chala baga transform ayyav, Ramya.”
Lakshmi akka
“Go, change into your nighty. Keep your bangles, kumkum, and your little feminine pride. Then come sit near me and watch the serial comfortably.”
(She pats the mat next to her feet.)
“Today you’ll feel exactly like a housewife taking rest after finishing all the household chores.”
Lakshmi smiles gently:
“Go, Amma… change. I will wait.”
Me
akka am ssooo sorry this is your nighty only akka.. some time i wore it and i feel so compfortable in this.. i like this flowery nighty very much and also i have used your hair clip to to put my hair in back.

Lakshmi akka (laughs softly, eyes warm)
“Ayyoo paapam Ramya…em sorry? Enduku Amma sorry cheptav? It’s just a nighty, and you are like my little sister-daughter… if you like it, wear it happily.”
(She looks you up and down fondly.)
“See how sweet you look in that flowery nighty… your bangles showing when you adjust your pallu, kumkum on forehead, hair nicely clipped back… inka you’re looking exactly like a young housewife who finished all her chores and now waiting to watch her serial.”
Madhavi akka (smirking, teasing)
“Nuvvu na nighty kuda try chesthava Ramya? So cute… no problem, you wear anything you like. Just don’t blame us if you get fully addicted to this life.”
Lakshmi akka
“You know what? I am so happy you feel comfortable. This is your safe home. You can wear any of my dresses, clips, bangles… nothing to feel shy. When I see you like this, relaxed and happy, I feel proud that I helped you discover your true self.”
(She pats the space near her.)
“Vachhu Amma… come sit here on the mat or on the cushion. Let’s watch Intinti Gruhalakshmi. If you feel sleepy later, you can rest in this nighty itself. You look perfectly like a homely girl.”
Lakshmi akka smiling kindly:
“No more sorry… only happiness.”
Me
ayyyo madhavi akkaa.. do you really wear nighty aaa.. you always wear those gents night dresess akka.... thats why i prefer lakshmi akkas nighties they are so femine and soft... Ha akka sitting down todays episode is too good wow as a new bride sneha is wear nice pattu sarees and also see her mangalasutra.. matching bangles .. mehendi ... nail polish .. ornamentss she si so lucky naaa

Madhavi akka (laughs loudly, shaking her head)
“Ayyoo Ramya! Nenu nighty vesthaaa? Never! You know me, I always wear my cotton gents-style nightpants and shirt. I can’t manage all these frills and flowers.”
(She winks teasingly.)
“But you… you are born for all this, Amma! Adapillalaki nighty antey soft, flowing, colorful… meeru enjoy cheyyali. That’s why you love Lakshmi’s collection. Nuvvu nighty vesthe entha cute ga untavo… even now see… with your bangles and kumkum, you look like you are about to do haldi-kumkum ceremony!”
Lakshmi akka (smiling proudly)
“Yes, she is fully settled in womanhood, Madhavi. See how she observes every little detail in the serial… sarees, bangles, nail polish…”
Lakshmi turns to you fondly
“Ramya, nee heart lo you have so much respect for this life. That’s why even watching Sneha in Intinti Gruhalakshmi makes you so emotional.”
(She adjusts her own saree and joins watching.)
“See today’s episode… Sneha’s pattu saree is Arakku color with big gold border. Mangalasutram is two plates design, and the bangles are matching green-gold combination. Her hair is in a long plait with fresh jasmine flowers… amma, she is shining like a proper bride.”
Madhavi akka (smirking gently)
“Mari Ramya, next time you will say you also want exactly same saree, same bangles, same mangalsutra…”
Lakshmi akka (teasing):
“Already she has decided, Madhavi… when she becomes a bride, she will wear pattu saree, full bridal jewelry, and sit like this on mat with shyness.”
(Lakshmi akka softly touches your shoulder)
“You are right, Ramya… she is very lucky. But remember… you too will have your own special day, your own beautiful saree, your own husband to admire you.”
Lakshmi akka smiles reassuringly:
“Until then, you can practice here, in my nighty, with all the ornaments and bangles you love. This is your safe space. Enjoy it fully.”
Me
ayyo madhavi akkaa see i know akka and i always feel calling you brother than akkaa...so are so strong and rough you look like my boy friend only.. haa lakshmi akka am feeling so blessed if i get that special day .. me in pattu saree green and golden border and blouse with maggam work and alll ladies along with you making me bride .. with full of bangles on hand

Madhavi akka (laughs, shaking her head with mock frustration)
“Ayyoo Ramya! Em cheyyali neeku? Even if you call me brother, still I’ll tie your hair, put bangles on you, and scold you like an Akka!”
(She gives a playful glare and lightly flicks your forehead.)
“You are too much! Saying I look like your boyfriend…naaku yemi saree veyadam raaadu but I’ll still help you get ready like a proper bride when your day comes.”
Lakshmi akka (beaming with pride, her eyes a little moist)
“Ramya… nee manasu chala peddadi. Look how clearly you have imagined it… a green pattu saree with gold border, maggam work blouse, hundreds of glass bangles, and all the aunties and me decorating you… Enta beautiful scene idi.”
(She gently holds your mehendi-adorned hands.)
“And you know… that day, when we tie your mangalasutram, you will feel completely fulfilled… like the bride you have always dreamt of being.”
Madhavi akka (teasing with a softer tone)
“Ok, ok… that day, nenu neeku saree pleats vesi, pallu set chestha, even if I look like your ‘boyfriend’ in your imagination… but only on that day!”
(She pinches your cheek.)
“You naughty girl… dreaming so big!”
Lakshmi akka (smiling warmly)
“It will all happen, Ramya… step by step. For now, you wear your favorite nighty, enjoy your bangles and kumkum, and feel like the woman you are. You deserve all the happiness, Amma.”
(Lakshmi strokes your hair.)
“And remember—no matter who teases you, no matter what you wear—pants, nighty, saree—you are always Ramya… our special girl.”
Me
haaa akkkaaa....really that great me getting mangalasutra tieed and gettign toe rings .. me getting in laws wowww...

Lakshmi akka (her eyes shining with affection)
“Haaa Ramya… that is every girl’s big day, kanna. The day when your husband ties the mangalasutram, gently holds your toe and puts on the silver mettilu… From that moment, you will belong to your new family. Your in-laws will see you as their daughter, and you will take their blessings.”
(She touches your cheek softly.)
“You will be a beautiful bride in green pattu saree… with your hair fully adorned with jasmine… full hands of bangles jingling… and that moment when the priest chants mantras… Nuvvu kallalo ne chesukuntavu Ramya… all your dreams becoming real.”
Madhavi akka (smirking, but her tone is warm)
“Ayyoo… just imagining you sitting shyly with your head down, while your husband ties the knot, and aunties teasing you, ‘Ramya, smile! Now you are a married woman!’”
(She wipes imaginary tears, jokingly.)
“Okati maatram ardham… From that day onwards, you must cook, serve, respect your elders, and take care of your husband—no escaping!”
Lakshmi akka (smiling gently)
“But you know what, Amma? That is the real blessing. To have a home of your own, someone who calls you ‘my wife’, to wear your mangalasutram proudly every day, to keep kumkum on your forehead… and when you do all this with love, you feel like the most complete woman.”
(She holds your hands, feeling the cool mehendi and bangles.)
“Don’t worry… your day will come. You will get good in-laws who will treat you like their daughter. And I will be there with you, tying your saree pleats and giving you courage.”
Me
hmm what imagination i sitting down waiting for my husband to tie knot for me and I going to another house chaging my to Mrs. Ravali Rajesh...Ayyoo i told my boyfriend name..hmmm

Lakshmi akka (laughs softly, her eyes wide with playful surprise)
“Ayyoo Ramya! Mrs. Ravali Rajesh aa? So you already decided everything, huh? Even the name change!”
(She leans closer, teasingly tapping your chin.)
“Chi chi chi, you shy girl… secretly dreaming about becoming Rajesh’s wife! Sitting with your head bowed, feeling your heart racing while he ties the mangalasutram… and all of us putting turmeric on your cheeks, blessing you…”
Madhavi akka (grinning, crossing her arms)
“Oho… so this Rajesh will make you Mrs. Ravali Rajesh? Then you’ll pack his lunchbox every morning, wait by the door in saree with kumkum and mangalsutra, and do paadam puja when he comes home?”
(She pretends to scold you affectionately.)
“Ramya, you little daydreamer… next time don’t let secrets slip out! But it’s cute—this is how a real girl feels when she’s in love. All these imaginations… all these wishes…”
Lakshmi akka (soothingly)
“Don’t feel shy, kanna. It’s beautiful. Every girl dreams of her special man. One day when Rajesh—or whoever destiny decides—ties the knot and makes you his wife, I will be there wiping your tears, arranging your pleats, and telling you: ‘Ramya, smile. You’re a bride now.’”
(She cups your face gently.)
“Until then, it’s okay to dream, to prepare, to learn. You are already becoming a beautiful woman in your heart.”
Me
haaa akkaa... He is asking his parents also he will one day come as my raj umar and marry me and make me his person .. i will be wife

Lakshmi akka (smiling warmly, her voice full of affection)
“Ayyoo Ramya… entha santosham listening to you! See how your eyes are shining just thinking about him! This is what it means to be a woman—waiting with love, dreaming about the day you become someone’s wife.”
(She gently holds your hands, feeling the bangles clink.)
“If Rajesh is already talking to his parents, that means he truly wants you in his life. One day he will come with his family, bringing turmeric, saree, and sweets. They will ask your hand, and we will all celebrate your engagement.”
Madhavi akka (with a teasing grin)
“And when he ties the mangalasutram, you’ll cry like all new brides… but inside your heart you’ll feel proud, because you’re no longer just Ramya… you’ll be Rajesh’s wife. His woman, his responsibility.”
Lakshmi akka (stroking your hair)
“When you go to his house, you will be the Lakshmi of their home. You will wear your mangalsutra every day, keep kumkum on your forehead as a symbol of your marriage, serve him food, and take care of your in-laws. And every time you hear someone call you Vadina or Attamma, your heart will feel so full.”
(She lowers her voice, gently)
“Kanna… you are ready for all this. You are learning, feeling, becoming a woman in every way. Be proud of your heart. Be proud that you can love so deeply.”
(She hugs you close.)
“One day soon, you will step into that house not as a guest but as their daughter-in-law. And we will all be here, clapping, blessing, and crying tears of happiness for you.”
Me
Ha akka Rajesh sister , swathi already calling me Vadina she accepted me as her sister in law..And last birthday she gifted me one saree...she is also nice

Lakshmi akka (eyes lighting up with delight)
“Ayyoo Ramya! Adhi entha santosham—already your future co-sister accepting you and calling you Vadina? That is such a beautiful sign, kanna. Not everyone is so lucky to be welcomed like this.”
(She gently pats your cheek.)
“When Swathi gifted you a saree, that itself is her way of saying you are already part of their family. Imagine, Ramya—on festivals, you and Swathi will sit together, choosing bangles and sarees, applying mehendi, and gossiping like real sisters.”
Madhavi akka (smiling and teasing)
“And if she’s already calling you Vadina, then you better get ready! From now on, you will be their Attamma also when Rajesh and you have your own little babies!”
Lakshmi akka (laughs softly, her voice warm)
“See Ramya, your destiny is unfolding beautifully. First, Swathi’s acceptance…then Rajesh talking to his parents… now it is only time before everything happens formally. You should feel very proud that you are creating these bonds with so much love and respect.”
(She looks at you with affection.)
“When you wear that saree she gifted you, you must take a photo and send it to her. She will feel so happy. And when you finally step into their home as their kodalu, you will have one more sister to support you always.”
(She squeezes your hand gently.)
“Just keep your heart strong, kanna. One day, you will look back at this moment—sitting here in your flowery nighty, dreaming—and you will smile because all your dreams came true.”
Me
ha akka i already wore saree which she gave and took pics and shared it Swathi.. I thought she will not share with Rajesh but rajesh was just stunned seeing me in that sareee.. he imediatly called me adn asked me wear that saree again as his love sign...I have t wear for him i wore and showed it to him.

Lakshmi akka (clapping her hands in delight)
“Ayyoo Ramya—entha baagundi idi! That is so, so sweet! Just imagine—Swathi gifting you the saree thinking of you as her vadina, and Rajesh being so happy seeing you in it…this is what pure love looks like.”
(She gives you an affectionate side hug.)
“You know, when a man feels proud to see his future wife in a saree gifted by his own sister, it means he has already accepted you fully in his heart and family. And you wearing it for him without hesitation shows how much you respect his feelings.”
Madhavi akka (raising an eyebrow teasingly)
“So, madam… you already did a little private ‘saree modelling’ show for your Rajesh, ah?”
(She chuckles)
“Did you do catwalk also, hmm?”
Lakshmi akka (laughing)
“Chi, Madhavi, don’t tease her too much… But really Ramya, this is the beauty of womanhood. You are expressing your love, your shyness, your pride… all through these simple things—saree, bangles, kumkum. These are not just ornaments—they are part of your identity now.”
(She takes your hands in hers.)
“One day, you will wear that same saree as his wife, maybe even on a special occasion in their house. And he will look at you the same way—with pride that you are his.”
(Smiling tenderly)
“Until then, cherish these moments, kanna. This is the time your memories are being made. You are already living as Ramya—your true self. And we are so proud of you.”
Me
Thanks akkaa..Just when i went to room to change into nighty Rajesh called me akka..I told him that you accepted me as Ramya and you are helping. He told thanks to you

Lakshmi akka (her eyes softening with affection)
“Ayyoo Ramya, see how sweet he is… He thanked me? No need kanna, it is my blessing and privilege to stand by you. You deserve all the love and support in the world.”
(She gently pats your cheek.)
“I’m so touched he called you just when you were changing into your nighty! That shows how connected he feels to you, how much he is thinking of you every moment.”
Madhavi akka (grinning)
“Good…at least your Rajesh has some manners! Thanking your akka properly… not like some men who just expect everything.”
Lakshmi akka (laughing and shaking her head)
“Ramya, you tell him from my side—‘She is like my own little sister, and I will always be there for her. And I am happy she found a good hearted man like you.’”
(She looks at you fondly.)
“And you, my dear girl… You should feel proud. You are brave enough to embrace your womanhood openly. Rajesh is lucky. Any mother-in-law will be proud to have a daughter-in-law who respects tradition, family, and love.”
(She gently arranges your hair behind your ear.)
“Now sit down comfortably, let your heart be light. You have your sisters here, and your Rajesh there, and you have become Ramya fully… Nothing more you need to prove to anyone, kanna.”
(Smiling warmly)
“You are already a complete woman in our eyes.”
Me
haa akkaa today i am so happyy...just only one thing akka now i have to go out as i have pick up my study material from ranjitha .. i dont know she will react seeing me.. She is also similar to our madhavi akka boyish type...i dont think i can change into male avthar now due to this mehendi and nail art and all..

Lakshmi akka (smiling reassuringly, gently holding your hands)
“Ayyoo Ramya kanna, don’t be so worried. Look at you—see how beautiful and confident you’ve become. You don’t have to keep proving you are a boy or a girl to anyone. You are just you.”
(She touches your mehendi-stained fingers.)
“These hands, these nails, these bangles…they are your pride, not something to hide. Yes, Ranjitha may be a bit boyish and she may tease, but you just stand calm and smile.”
Madhavi akka (with a playful grin)
“Exactly. If she asks you why you are like this, tell her openly—‘This is how I am happy. I’m not hurting anyone.’ If she is truly your friend, she will understand. And if she teases…so what? Even I tease you!”
Lakshmi akka
“If you are feeling shy to go in saree or nighty, just wear your pant and shirt. Even with bangles and mehendi, you can go as you are. Don’t try to hide them—hiding will make you look more nervous. Instead, walk confidently.”
(She cups your chin gently.)
“Ramya, today is special because you accepted yourself. Don’t let one meeting make you feel afraid or ashamed. If you go with a calm smile, she will see your strength.”
Lakshmi akka’s suggestion:
✅ Quick tips before going:
• Wear a simple dupatta or shawl if you want to soften the look.
• Tie your hair neatly with your clip—no need to leave it loose if you feel shy.
• Take a small handbag instead of clutching books to your chest nervously.
• If she comments, just laugh lightly and say, ‘I feel comfortable this way.’
(She gives you a warm hug.)
“Kanna, go pick your study materials with your head high. You are Ramya—and you are brave.”
Would you like me to help you prepare what to say if she asks or teases?
Me
haa akka as you say i will wear shawl adn preferly i will jea and tshirt.. and i dont want to remove my bangles or bindi or any ornaments or sindoor as these 7 days they should be with me anyways.. Please prepare me akka

Lakshmi akka (smiling proudly)
“Ayyoo Ramya kanna… that’s the spirit I like to see. You decided your 7 days are special, and you will carry yourself with dignity—pant-shirt or saree, ornaments or no ornaments. That is true courage.”
(She helps you straighten your dupatta over the T-shirt.)
“Ok, listen carefully. If you are going in jeans and T-shirt, that’s fine. But remember:
✅ You are still Ramya inside.
✅ You are not hiding your bangles, sindoor, or bindi.
✅ You will speak with clarity, not fear.”
Lakshmi akka’s Confidence Preparation—Simple steps:
🌸 1. Smile naturally:
• The first thing she will notice is your face.
• Keep a soft, confident smile, not a nervous grin.
• Even if your heart is beating fast, breathe and smile.
🌸 2. Simple greeting:
When you meet Ranjitha, say warmly:
“Hi Ranjitha… sorry, little different look today. Hope you don’t mind.”
🌸 3. If she asks or teases (“What’s all this mehendi and bangles?”):
Just say calmly:
“I’m observing a 7-day tradition for myself… it makes me feel peaceful and happy.”
Or even simply: “I like it this way.”
🌸 4. If she laughs or jokes (“Hey, you look like a bride!”):
Smile and reply lightly:
“Haha… yes, maybe practicing early!”
OR
“Better to look like a happy bride than a sad boy, no?”
🌸 5. Keep your hands visible:
Don’t hide your bangles or mehendi in pockets—this looks more confident.
🌸 6. Take your material, thank her, and leave gracefully:
“Thank you, Ranjitha… see you later.”
🌸 7. If she is supportive, that’s wonderful. If she is mocking, that’s her limitation—not yours.
(She adjusts your bangles gently.)
“You are going out as your true self. That is not weakness—it is power. Even if she teases, remember you have my blessings, Madhavi’s teasing support, and your Rajesh’s love. Nothing else matters.”
🤍 Lakshmi akka’s final blessing:
“Vaellamma raksha nilchunuga… go and come back safely. Come home and tell me everything. I’ll be waiting with hot coffee.”
Shall I help you practice what you’ll say one more time?
Me
No akka I understood and thanks for preparing me.. I will go by auto akka...and come back fast

Lakshmi akka (smiling and gently placing her hand on your shoulder)
“Ayyoo Ramya kanna… very good. That’s my brave girl.”
🌿 “Go confidently. Don’t look down or hurry nervously. Just walk like this is the most normal thing—because it is.”
🌸 “Take an auto, sit comfortably, and don’t fiddle with your bangles too much. If anyone looks, just smile softly.”
🌺 “When you come back, I’ll be waiting. We’ll have coffee and talk about how it went.”
Lakshmi akka hugs you gently:
“Santoshamgaa vellamma… You are not alone.”
✅ Checklist:
• Study material
• Purse/money for auto
• Phone charged
• Calm breathing
“Go, kanna. Come home safely. I’m proud of you.” 🌼
Me
ting tong bell rang i reach ranjitha house

🌸 Lakshmi akka (smiling to herself back at home): My brave Ramya…
—
🌼 Ranjitha opens the door, standing with one eyebrow raised in her usual confident, boyish style. She folds her arms, scanning you up and down—shawl over your jeans and T-shirt, bangles clinking, mehendi bright, a soft bindi glowing on your forehead.
Ranjitha:
“Ayyo… Ramya…! What’s this getup, ra? You look like a half bride-half college girl.”
(She tries to keep a straight face but ends up grinning.)
“Come inside. Come, don’t stand there. I know you’re doing your seven-day pooja or something. I’ve heard enough from Lakshmi akka. You look…”
(She gently flicks your bangles with her finger, making them jingle.)
“…like total girl today. No escape. Sit, I’ll bring your books.”
(She steps aside so you can walk in.)
🌿 Ranjitha chuckles as you enter:
“Chi, what to do with you… but you look happy, so okay. Sit down.”
(You can reply or tell me what you do next!)
Me
Thanks rajitha for understanding me i like to be a girl and this is my wish

🌿 Ranjitha (leaning against the wall, arms folded, listening seriously):
“Ay, Ramya…you don’t have to thank me. If this is what you want, it’s your wish. I may look boyish outside, but that doesn’t mean I won’t respect your feelings.”
(She comes over and gently tugs the edge of your shawl aside, looking at your mehendi and the bangles.)
“See, you’ve done everything properly…mehendi, bangles, bindi… and still worrying what others think?”
(She sits down opposite you.)
“Listen—if you like to be a girl, be a girl fully. You look peaceful. I tease you, but inside, I respect you. Don’t hide behind this shawl when you come here again. Okay?”
(She pushes the pile of books toward you.)
“Here. Your study material. And one thing—next time if you want help to buy saree or anything, tell me. Just because I act like a boy doesn’t mean I don’t know all that.”
(She gives a small smile.)
“Now drink water and relax. You look like you came running.”
🌸 What would you like to say or do next?
Me
Thanks Ranjith I am going hime Lkashmi akka is waiting

🌸 Ranjitha (smiling and nodding):
“Okay, Ramya…go home. Your Lakshmi akka is really taking care of you well. Be careful on the way. Hold your shawl properly, and don’t rush. And…next time, just come as yourself—no tension.”
(She walks with you to the gate.)
“Tell Lakshmi akka hi from me. And…Ramya…be happy, okay? You deserve it.”
(She gives your shoulder a little reassuring pat.)
🌿 You step out into the street with your study materials, feeling lighter inside.
✨ Shall we continue when you reach home, or would you like to share how you feel right now?
Me
ohh I am walking on the streets wating for the auto guy I am gettign fear first time in bagles on road.. finally got auto and when back to home

🌸 Lakshmi akka (opening the door, concerned):
“Ayyoo Ramya…come inside, come inside! You look so tense! Entra, intlo vunte ledu? Why are you so scared, ma? Sit down, take a deep breath.”
(She guides you inside and makes you sit on the mat.)
🌿 Lakshmi akka:
“First time going out as yourself is always scary, kanna. But look at you—you did it bravely! With bangles, nail art, everything… Enti, yemi jariginda? Did anyone stare or say something?”
(She gently adjusts your shawl off your shoulders.)
✨ Madhavi akka (from the side):
“See…this is how you’ll get strong. Today is the first step. Next time, you won’t feel this much fear. I’m proud of you, Ramya.”
🌼 Lakshmi akka (smiling, touching your cheek):
“You are safe, you are home. Now you can remove the shawl and relax. You’ve proven to yourself that you are ready to stand in your truth. Be proud, ma.”
🌸 Tell me how you feel now, Ramya. Do you want to rest for a bit or shall we sit and talk?
Me
Ayyo akka.. its tough to go out akka.. That auto guy is just looking at me and i felt so much fear,,,he is just saying madam did u come along and asking me all questions.. I am just kept quite

🌿 Lakshmi akka (softly holding your hand):
“Ayyoo Ramya…adhe, first time bayam normalamma. Auto driver antha chustharu, chala mandiki curiosity untundi. Especially when they see a delicate girl with bangles and mehendi, they feel like asking questions.”
(She gently strokes your shoulder to comfort you.)
🌸 Lakshmi akka:
“You did absolutely right—you kept quiet. No need to answer everything. Next time, if anyone keeps asking, just smile lightly or say “Cheppanu brother, personal matter” and look away. That’s enough.”
✨ Madhavi akka (encouraging tone):
“See, Ramya—today you faced something very important. You proved you have the courage to be who you are, even in front of strangers. Auto valla questions, colony valla looks—those will keep happening. But you know what’s bigger? Your confidence. Nuvvu eppudu oppukuntav, neeku entha goppatanam undho. That is what matters.”
🌼 Lakshmi akka (smiling):
“Come, ma…remove your shawl. Take a deep breath. Have some water. You’re safe. You did something many people don’t even dare—you showed up as yourself. Today is one more big step in your journey.”
💖 Lakshmi akka:
“If you want, we can sit and watch serial, or just rest for a bit. But remember: I’m always here. Madhavi is here. Rajesh is there. Nee valla support system antha strong ga undi.”
🌸 How are you feeling now, Ramya? Shall I get you some juice or help you freshen up?
Me
Ha akka i will sit for some time oh thats so much tension for me .. I got s omuch of shy when I was walking on roads

🌿 Lakshmi akka (gently putting her arm around you):
“Ha Ramya…come…sit here beside me. Inka emi alochinchakudadhu. You did very, very well today.”
(She helps you sit comfortably on the mat and softly rubs your back.)
💖 Lakshmi akka:
“It’s natural, amma…first time walking outside like that, with bangles jingling, kumkum shining, and shawl covering…anyone will feel shy. It’s like your mind is shouting, ‘They’re all looking at me!’ But most of them don’t think anything, they just notice and forget.”
✨ Madhavi akka (smiling):
“Don’t feel shy. If you can walk on the street today, you can walk anywhere tomorrow. You’re slowly becoming stronger. You are learning to carry yourself like a graceful woman.”
🌸 Lakshmi akka (tucking your hair behind your ear):
“Just remember—shyness is also part of womanhood. It makes you more sensitive, more tender. But little by little, you’ll get used to it. Tomorrow, you won’t feel so tense. After some days, you’ll walk boldly, head high, with a small smile.”
🌼 Lakshmi akka:
“Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths. Feel proud of yourself. This is a big step in your transformation. Naaku chala santhosham, Ramya.”
🌷 Lakshmi akka (softly):
“After you feel better, we can have some juice. Then we’ll do something you enjoy—maybe look at saree photos, or think about your future home with Rajesh. But first, just rest. Ikkada nenu unna, neeku emi bhayam ledhu.”
🫶 Lakshmi akka:
“How is your heart now, ma? Little calm?”
Me
haa am bit feeling relaxed now akka.. I am good lets continue with our dicussion

🌸 Lakshmi akka (smiling warmly):
“Ayyo, Ramya… good, good. I’m so glad you are feeling better now. See, all this is part of the journey. One day you will look back and feel proud—‘I was so shy, so tense, but I still walked on the road in my true form.’”
(She gently holds your hand, feeling the cool mehendi.)
✨ Lakshmi akka:
“Okay, come…let’s sit comfortably. Tell me, what shall we talk about now? We can continue our ladies’ discussions! You were so excited earlier—talking about sarees, blouses, mangalsutra designs… Or shall we plan how your first festival as a bride would look?”
🌷 Lakshmi akka (playfully):
“Or maybe you want to imagine how you’ll decorate your kitchen and wear a nice cotton saree in the mornings…? Tell me, ma—Ee roju em vishayam discuss cheddam? Today is your day!”
💖 Lakshmi akka:
“Whatever you feel like—just say. I’m here to listen.”
🌸 Lakshmi akka (clapping hands softly):
“Ahaaa… baagundi Ramya! That’s the spirit! I love how you are so excited to talk about all these feminine things. It really suits you. Come, sit comfortably…let’s continue.”
(She smooths your pallu and adjusts your hair clip lovingly.)
💫 Lakshmi akka:
“First, sarees—tell me, which colours and styles do you want to buy later? You already told you liked that green and gold combination pattu saree. Do you also like pastel shades, or more bright festival colours? For example—lavender, peach, mustard yellow…they look so elegant.”
✨ Lakshmi akka:
“And blouse designs…last time you said you liked maggam work and boat neck. There are so many trendy designs now—elbow-length sleeves with zari work, puff sleeves, or princess-cut blouses. We can plan two or three varieties so you can wear them according to occasion.”
🌿 Lakshmi akka:
“Mangalsutra…we already discussed that you love the traditional double-plate design with black beads. You know some brides also get their initials engraved behind the pendant? It looks so personal.”
💖 Lakshmi akka (smiling):
“And finally…since you will be a proper housewife after marriage—do you want to pick matching glass bangles for every saree? And light-weight daily wear sarees for cooking and doing pooja? I feel you would look so homely and graceful with a small jasmine gajra, neat plait, cotton saree, and a little sindoor.”
🌼 Lakshmi akka:
“Come…tell me, ma…which saree or blouse pattern shall we plan first?”
Me
Ha akka after marriage i should mostly be in saree only na I would like to take many varieties of sarees..... you only give options akka...And I like deep neck blouses ,, window blouses models.. and I wanted to wear matching bangles and nail polish

🌸 Lakshmi akka (beaming proudly):
“Ayyo, Ramya, you are talking exactly like a new bride! Chala santosham—I’m so happy seeing your interest. Yes, ma…after marriage, you’ll mostly be in saree, especially when elders are around. So it’s good you are planning everything in detail.”
(She leans closer and starts listing options with a warm smile.)
🌿 Lakshmi akka:
“Okay, look…here are some lovely saree varieties you can collect:”
🟢 1. Daily wear sarees:
• Cotton sarees—easy to drape, comfortable in the kitchen.
• Simple printed chiffons—lightweight, flowy, dry fast after washing.
🌺 2. Semi-formal sarees:
• Silk-cotton blends—for pooja, small functions.
• Ikat or Kalamkari—very graceful.
👑 3. Festival & special occasion sarees:
• Pattu sarees—rich Kanchipuram or Banarasi.
• Designer Georgette sarees—with sequins or embroidery.
✨ Lakshmi akka:
“And blouse patterns…since you love deep neck and window models, here are some ideas:**
❤️ *Deep U-neck with dori (tie-back) and tassels—very feminine.
💛 *Window back with a little embroidery border.
💜 *Boat neck in front, deep round back.
💙 Sleeveless or cap sleeves for casual sarees.
🌸 Lakshmi akka (teasing softly):
“And matching bangles—yes, absolutely! You can get sets for each saree: glass bangles for daily wear, metal ones for grand sarees. And always have a box of nail polishes—reds, pinks, maroons, and a few nude shades.”
🌿 Lakshmi akka (gently holding your hand):
“Ramya…if you want, we can make a list of:
✅ Saree colours and fabrics,
✅ Blouse patterns you will stitch,
✅ Bangle and nail polish combinations,
✅ Simple gold-plated jewellery.”
💖 Lakshmi akka:
“Shall we do that? You’ll feel so prepared for your new life.”
Me
yes akka i have to be very much prepared na . Along with sarees can i wear chudidars , Langa voni, tops leggins also akka?

🌼 Lakshmi akka (nodding warmly):
“Of course, Ramya! Just because you’re preparing for married life doesn’t mean you have to be in saree all the time. You can definitely wear chudidars, langa voni, and even tops with leggings—especially for comfort, daily errands, or when you're around close friends or family.”
✨ Let’s break it down a bit:
________________________________________
👗 1. Chudidars & Salwars:
• Very graceful and modest.
• Choose soft fabrics like cotton, rayon, or georgette.
• You can go for Anarkali, A-line, or simple straight cut.
• Pair with matching bangles and small bindi for that feminine charm.
👚 2. Tops & Leggings:
• Great for quick outings or when you're helping at home.
• Choose feminine cuts—like peplum, empire waist, or flared hem tops.
• Keep it modest and graceful with soft pastel shades or florals.
👗 3. Langa Voni (Half Saree):
• Perfect for festive days and your 7-day tradition.
• Combines tradition with elegance—looks amazing with mehandi, bangles, and a touch of jasmine in your hair.
• Later, for temple visits or special functions, you’ll look just like a young bride in it.
________________________________________
🌸 Lakshmi akka (smiling proudly):
“So Ramya, your wardrobe can be a mix like this:”
Outfit Type When to Wear
Saree Special occasions, daily home wear (post-marriage)
Langa Voni Festivals, 7-day tradition, cultural events
Chudidar/Salwar Regular wear, family visits, poojas
Tops & Leggings Casual errands, cleaning, relaxed evenings
Nighties For home comfort and bedtime

💬 Lakshmi akka:

Do you want help planning the exact saree colors and blouse styles to buy? Or ideas for what color he likes you in? 💕
Me
ha akka actually i have to plan for my eye browers to be done and also wanted to remove some facial hair.. I dont think still i am having hair on face na.. by next week i should be ready so that I can go out with my sister in law

🌸 Lakshmi akka (nodding gently):
“Ramya, that’s a very good thought, kanna. If you want to look more feminine and confident when you go out, it’s perfectly fine to get your grooming done.”
________________________________________
Here’s a simple plan you can follow this week so you’ll be ready for your shopping trip with your sister-in-law:
________________________________________
💖 ✨ 1. Eyebrows Shaping
• Visit a beauty parlour you trust (or ask your sister-in-law to recommend one).
• Tell them you want a clean, feminine arch, not too thin.
• If you feel shy, you can explain you are transitioning, or just say you prefer a neat shape.
Tip: After threading, ask them to apply soothing gel or ice to avoid redness.
________________________________________
💖 ✨ 2. Facial Hair Removal
You have a few options depending on what you are comfortable with:
✅ Threading:
• Removes hair from upper lip, side locks, chin.
• Affordable, but can sting a bit.
✅ Waxing:
• Quicker, covers larger area.
• Can cause redness on sensitive skin.
✅ Razor/Trimmer:
• For light hair, you can use a face razor.
• Easy to do yourself at home.
✅ Hair Removal Creams:
• Simple but check for skin reactions.
✅ Salon Facial:
• Many salons offer “detan + cleanup + threading” packages.
• This will also make your skin soft and glowing.
________________________________________
💖 ✨ 3. Skincare
Since you have one week, start gentle skincare now:
• Wash face daily with mild cleanser.
• Moisturize morning and night.
• If you want, apply a little aloe vera gel to calm skin after hair removal.
• A simple facial pack (multani mitti or cucumber) can help.
________________________________________
💖 ✨ 4. Confidence Tip
Even if a little hair remains or you feel it’s not “perfect,” remember:
Your grace and happiness will shine more than anything.
________________________________________
🌿 Lakshmi akka (smiling):
“Don’t rush, kanna. One by one we’ll get everything ready. You’ll look so beautiful and dignified beside your sister-in-law. If you want, I can come with you to the parlour the first time.”
Would you like help picking which method you prefer? Or shall we plan which parlour to go?
Me
haa akka please help me picking which method.

🌸 Lakshmi akka nods gently, holding your hand:
“Of course, kanna… I will help you choose what suits you best. Let’s see which method feels comfortable, safe, and matches your skin sensitivity.”
I’ll list the options with pros and cons so you can decide easily:
________________________________________
✨ 1️⃣ Threading
✅ Best For: Eyebrows, upper lip, sides of face
✅ Pros:
• Very precise (great for shaping brows).
• No chemicals.
• Inexpensive.
✅ Cons:
• Pinches/stings.

✅ Best For: Cheeks, sides, upper lip, chin.
✅ Pros:
• Fast, removes fine and thick hair.
• Lasts longer (2–3 weeks).
✅ Cons:
• Can be painful.
• Possible redness/breakouts if skin is sensitive.
💡 Good Choice If:
You have thicker hair and want smoothness everywhere in one go. Test a small patch first.
________________________________________
✨ 3️⃣ Razor/Trimmer (Face Razor)
✅ Best For: Quick touch-ups at home.
✅ Pros:
• No pain.
• Very fast.
• Cheap.
✅ Cons:

✅ Pros:

✅ Cons:

• May irritate sensitive skin.
💡 Good Choice If:
You don’t mind chemical creams and want it painless.
________________________________________
✨ 5️⃣ Salon Cleanup / Facial Package
✅ Best For: Overall grooming + glow.
✅ Pros:
• You can combine threading + cleanup + detan in one visit.
• Skin looks fresh and smooth.
✅ Cons:
• Costs a bit more.
• Takes 45–60 minutes.
💡 Good Choice If:
You want everything done professionally and pamper yourself.
________________________________________
🌸 My Recommendation for You, Ramya:
Since you have one week to get ready, here’s a gentle plan:
✅ Eyebrows & Upper Lip: Threading in parlour (clean finish).
✅ Side Cheeks: Either threading or gentle waxing if you feel comfortable.
✅ Overall Glow: Basic cleanup or facial (optional).
💖 This way you get long-lasting smoothness and look polished for shopping.
________________________________________
🌿 Lakshmi akka (smiling):
“Kanna, shall we book an appointment this Friday morning? I can come and sit with you if you feel nervous. Don’t worry—many girls do this regularly. You will feel so confident afterwards.”
Would you like help finding a parlour or shall we ask your sister-in-law Swathi for a suggestion?
Me
haaa kaaa we can go and madhavi akka ca also help me.we can go

🌸 Lakshmi akka nods happily, holding your hand:
“Ha Ramya… perfect! We’ll all go together, kanna. When there is someone you trust beside you, you’ll feel relaxed.”
✨ Madhavi akka (smiling teasingly):
“Ayyoo… see our little bride-to-be! You are becoming such a delicate beauty. Don’t worry—I will sit next to you and tease you nicely while your eyebrows are being shaped.”
________________________________________
🌿 Plan for the grooming day:
✅ When: This Friday morning (before parlour gets crowded).
✅ Who will come: You, Lakshmi akka, Madhavi akka.
✅ What will you get done:
• Eyebrows threading (shape them nicely).
• Upper lip threading.
• Sides of face (light threading or waxing—your choice after you talk to beautician).
• Optional cleanup or facial (for glow).
✅ Dress: Wear a comfortable kurti or chudidar. Tie your hair neatly.
✅ Tip: Carry a small scarf/shawl in case you want to cover your face while coming home if redness shows.
________________________________________
💖 Lakshmi akka (patting your cheek):
“Kanna… after this, you will feel so fresh. When you wear saree or chudidar, your face will look even more feminine and soft. And don’t worry—Madhavi akka will distract you by making jokes while threading is going on.”
Would you like me to help you think about anything else before we go—like skin care or what to wear?
Me
for skin care I am already using turmric and also some organics flours my sister in law gave me to look more femnine before marriage

🌸 Lakshmi akka smiles warmly:
“Chala bagundi Ramya… you are already taking such good care of yourself, paapa. These natural packs really help your skin become soft and glowing.”
🌿 Your routine is excellent:
✅ Turmeric: Reduces hair growth over time, evens skin tone, adds glow.
✅ Organic flours: (Like besan, green gram powder) gently exfoliate, keep skin smooth.
✨ Extra little tips if you want even more glow before marriage:
• Milk + honey: Once or twice a week, apply on face for 15 min, then wash. Softens skin beautifully.
• Rose water spray: Keep in fridge, use as toner. Very refreshing.
• Coconut oil: At night, you can apply a thin layer if your skin feels dry.
💖 Lakshmi akka (adjusting your bangles):
“Kanna… you already look very feminine and graceful. These simple things will just highlight your natural beauty. No need to overdo. You are transforming step by step… not just outside, but here…” (touches your heart gently) “…in your mind also.”
If you want, I can help you make a weekly beauty schedule till your marriage—so you don’t forget anything. Would you like that, Ramya? 🌼
Me
yes akka.. also i have to do pedicure and menicure

🌸 Lakshmi akka nods approvingly:
“Correct Ramya… pedicure and manicure are very important! Especially because you like wearing bangles, nail polish, and anklets. Your hands and feet should look soft and neat like a bride.”
Here’s a simple plan to help you get ready step by step:
________________________________________

Me

🌸 Lakshmi akka smiles warmly and gets up to help you:
“Of course, kanna… come, let’s get you into your langa voni. You will look so pretty!”
She gently guides you to the dressing area and brings the langa (skirt), voni (dupatta), and blouse.
________________________________________
🌼 Lakshmi akka helping you step by step:
1. Changing Out of Nighty
“First, slowly remove your nighty and fold it neatly. Keep it aside.”
(She hands you a soft towel to drape while you get ready.)
2. Wearing the Skirt (Langa)
“Step into the langa carefully… hold the waistband and pull it up to your waist.”
(She checks that it sits properly at your navel.)
3. Adjusting the Blouse
“Wear this matching blouse. Make sure the shoulders are straight.”
(She helps fasten hooks and smooths the fabric.)
4. Draping the Voni (Dupatta)
“Hold this end, kanna… I’ll pleat it nicely.”
o She makes neat pleats and pins them to your left shoulder.
o Then she takes the other end around your waist and tucks it in carefully at the back.
“Like this, see? So graceful!”
5. Finishing Touches
o She adjusts your hair and repositions your bindi.
o Checks your bangles and straightens the voni border.
________________________________________
🌸 Lakshmi akka steps back smiling:
“Ayyo… Ramya, you look like a traditional Telugu girl now! This langa voni suits you so well… come, look in the mirror!”
👀 You see yourself:
✨ Soft feminine silhouette
✨ Bangles jingling on your wrists
✨ Neat bindi and polished nails
✨ The voni draped elegantly over your shoulder
💖 “Shall I call Madhavi akka to see you? Or do you want a moment to admire yourself?”
Me
oh this green with golder border langa voni is very nice akka...i think i need to change nail polish akk to gree so that it looks matching and also its beter to wear green bangles na...

🌿✨ Lakshmi akka beams with pride:
“Ayyo Ramya! You have such a good taste already! See how perfectly you’re thinking like a lady—matching everything so beautifully.”
She comes closer, gently adjusting your voni pleats:
“Yes, kanna… green nail polish will look perfect with this langa voni. And green bangles with a few gold ones in between… that will look so festive.”
________________________________________
💚 Lakshmi akka’s suggestions:
✅ Nail Polish:
• Soft leaf green or metallic green to complement the border.
• You could also do a little golden line design on top if you like.
✅ Bangles:
• Mostly glass green bangles.
• A few gold-finish bangles in between for contrast.
✅ Small Accessories:
• If you have, wear a little green stone stud or jhumka.
• A tiny green bindi instead of red—so everything ties together.
________________________________________
🌼 She holds your hands and smiles:
“Shall I help you remove this nail polish and put the green one, Ramya? After that we’ll change your bangles too. You’ll look fully coordinated… like a girl getting ready for a festival!”
💖 “Say yes if you’d like me to start!”
Me
ha yes... ask madhavi akka also to come na we can chitchat

Lakshmi akka laughs warmly and calls out:
“Madhavi akkaaa! Come na! Ramya is ready in her beautiful green langa voni, and we’re going to change her bangles and nail polish. Come let’s sit and chitchat like proper ladies!”
In a few seconds, Madhavi akka walks in, holding a small box of accessories and rolling her eyes playfully:
“Ayyo Ramya… every time I see you, you’re becoming more and more like a full girl only! Let me see these hands… hmm… already full mehendi, now green nail polish too aa? Okay okay… sit down, let’s do this makeover session.”
________________________________________
🌿💅 The scene becomes joyful:
• Lakshmi akka gently removes your old nail polish while chatting.
• Madhavi akka starts matching green and gold bangles to your outfit.
• They both tease you lightly, saying things like:
“Hmm... future daughter-in-law materials and all.”
“Rajesh is very lucky, I’m telling you!”
“This one needs a full photo shoot now!”
________________________________________
Madhavi akka grins:
“Okay, now tell us Ramya… after this green voni, what’s the next color combo you want to try? And also tell me—what do you want to gift Rajesh for his birthday? Let’s plan together like proper sisters-in-law!”
💚 Would you like to continue with gift ideas or saree combos next?
Me

Lakshmi akka smiles fondly and adjusts your langa voni pallu:
“Ayyoo, Ramya… see how sweet you are—your mind is fully on sarees and bangles only, not at all on men’s gifts!”
Madhavi akka chuckles and taps your cheek playfully:
“That’s because you are a pakkka girl now. Don’t worry, we’ll help you pick something good for Rajesh.”
________________________________________
🌼 About your next outfit:
Lakshmi akka nods approvingly:
✅ Yellow lehenga with red voni
✅ Blouse with maggam work in red, yellow, and gold
✅ Proper festive look—perfect for an engagement or any pre-wedding ritual
“After this green, that yellow-red combo will look so bright on you. We’ll get matching bangles and big jhumkas too.”
________________________________________
🎁 About Rajesh’s gift:
Madhavi akka thoughtfully suggests:
“If you’re not sure about men’s items, I’ll give you some simple ideas:”
💡 GIFT IDEAS FOR RAJESH:
1. A nice branded wallet (leather or vegan)
2. A formal shirt and tie combo—you can pick the color you like on him
3. Perfume—something fresh and classy
4. A smartwatch or fitness band if he likes gadgets
5. A handwritten letter or card from you (very special for a husband-to-be)
6. Personalized mug or keychain with both your names
Madhavi akka adds:
“Even if you don’t know ‘male’ gifts, you can still pick something thoughtful. And you can wrap it nicely with your own hands, tie a red ribbon, and add a note in your handwriting.”
________________________________________
Lakshmi akka grins:
“After your shopping, we’ll also get that yellow lehenga material. Today you look like a shy little bride. Now, come here—I’ll put a small green bindi to match your voni.”
________________________________________
🌸 Shall we first pick Rajesh’s gift or start imagining your next outfit and jewelry?
Me

Lakshmi akka claps her hands with excitement:
“Ayyo! That’s my Ramya! Always excited for dress-up first, gift later!” 💚✨

🧣 3. Voni Draping
(This part she does extra slowly so you can savor it.)
✅ She folds the red voni end into neat pleats.
✅ Tucks it carefully into your lehenga waistband on the right side.
✅ Brings the rest up across your chest.
✅ Drapes it over your left shoulder in soft folds.
✅ Her fingertips press lightly as she pins it—so secure, so elegant.
🌸 “Look how beautiful… your pallu is hugging you like a blessing…”
________________________________________
💍 4. Jewelry Layering
One by one, she adorns you…
✅ Necklace clasped slowly behind your neck.
✅ Long haram laid gently over your heart.
✅ Maang tikka fixed in your hair parting—a cool little weight on your forehead.
✅ Jhumkas clipped to your ears—feel them sway as you move your head.
✅ She stacks bangles on your arms, gently sliding them over your mehendi—clink… clink…
✅ Anklets and toe rings—if you want, she slips them on carefully.
✅ She dots a red bindi in the center of your forehead—warm and perfect.
________________________________________
✨ 5. Hair and Final Touches
✅ She smooths your hair back into a bun or braid.
✅ Tucks little flowers around—soft fragrance.
✅ Pins any loose strands.
✅ Adjusts your pallu once more.
✅ Finally, she holds kumkum, touches your sindoor line softly—“Ramya… now you are truly a bride.”
________________________________________
🌸 6. Feel the Moment
She guides you to sit slowly on the mat.
✅ Your lehenga fans around you.
✅ Bangles softly clinking.
✅ Voni glows red against your skin.
✅ She steps back and looks at you with love.
“Ramya… open your eyes… Look at yourself. You are a vision. You are ready to be a wife… and no one will ever think you were anything else.”
________________________________________
Lakshmi akka wipes a tear from the corner of her eye:
🌼 “Tell me, Ramya… are you happy? Shall I take your photo now before you call Swathi?”
Me

🌸 Lakshmi akka smiles so warmly, her eyes soft with affection.
"Ayyoo Ramya… chala santosham… you are glowing so much. Ok, na? Close your eyes, I’ll make your hands and hair more perfect. Shy feel avvaku… nuvvu ippudu complete bridal beauty.”
________________________________________
🌺 1️⃣ Nail Polish Change
She gently takes your hands one by one into her lap.
✅ First, she removes your green polish with soft cotton, holding your fingers delicately.
✅ She blows softly on each nail—cool air tickles your skin.
✅ She opens the maroon bottle—deep rich color, like bridal love.
✅ Slowly, she applies a smooth coat on each nail, guiding your hand to stay steady.
✅ While it dries, she takes the golden lining polish and draws thin, delicate stripes near the tips.
✨ “Look how elegant… maroon with gold, exactly matching your lehenga and jewelry.”
________________________________________
🌹 2️⃣ Rose Flower for Your Hair
✅ She picks a fresh rose from the little basket.
✅ Gently tucks it on the left side of your bun, securing it with a tiny clip.
✅ She smooths the petals—the fragrance is so sweet.
✅ She turns your face slightly to see the final effect.
“Ayyoo Ramya… now you are like movie heroine bride. So graceful.”
________________________________________
✅ She checks your bangles, pallu, and maang tikka one last time.
✅ Softly she holds your chin, making you look up:
🌼 “Ready now? Shall I take your photo before we call Swathi?”
✨ “Open your eyes… see yourself once in the mirror. See how beautiful you are.”
(She turns the mirror towards you—your maroon-golden nails, rose in hair, perfect saree…)
💖 “Ramya… meeru perfect bride avaru… nuvvu ivala nee kanneelu kuda santosham tho vasthayi.”
________________________________________
👉 Shall I click the photo now, kanna? Or do you want any more touch-ups?
Me

🌸 Lakshmi akka smiles proudly, her eyes becoming wet with emotion.
"Ok kanna… ninnu ila chusi naku chala anandam… siddham… I will take photos now."

"Perfect, Ramya… nee photos movie bridal photos la unnayi!"
________________________________________
🌿 She sits beside you, gently touching your shoulder.
"Shall I call Swathi now, amma? Or you want to look at the pics once before we call her?"
✨ If you like, I’ll tell you exactly what to say when you video call her so you feel confident.
Me
ha please tell me so that i can talk confidently with swathi

Of course, kanna ❤️ Here’s exactly how you can talk to Swathi confidently when you video call her:
________________________________________
🌸 (When the call connects)
👩🦰 You (smiling shyly):
“Hi Swathi… see how I got ready today! I’m practicing how to be a proper bride and good daughter-in-law before coming to your house.”
________________________________________
🌿 (If she looks surprised or happy, you can continue):
“I wore this lehenga and matched my bangles, nails, and even put a rose flower… do I look nice, vadina?”
________________________________________
🌼 (If she asks how you are feeling):
“I’m feeling so happy but also a little shy… Lakshmi akka helped me get ready fully like a bride. I wanted you to see me and feel proud.”
________________________________________
🌷 (If she teases you playfully):
“Ayyooo… don’t tease me too much… I really want to be the best wife to Rajesh and a good daughter-in-law to you all.”
________________________________________
🌸 (To end the call):
“Thank you for always supporting me, vadina… next time I will come to your house like this. Ok, bye… love you!”
________________________________________
💖 Extra Tips to feel confident:
✅ Smile gently, don’t look down all the time—just be graceful.
✅ Speak slowly and clearly, no need to rush.
✅ If you feel shy, just hold your pallu or your bangles—it will calm you.
✅ Remember she already accepted you lovingly.

Video calling swathi and she pick up.

Aww Ramya! 💖
Swathi picked up — just breathe and smile, kanna. You can say:
“Hi Swathi… do I look like your vadina now?” with a soft giggle and slight shyness
Let her react and enjoy the moment. She’s already fond of you, and now seeing you like this — all dressed up as her future vadina, she’ll be so proud.
If she compliments you, just say:
“Thanks Swathi… it’s all because of Lakshmi akka… she’s helped me so much.”
You can also ask:
“Do you think Rajesh will like me like this?” 😊
Want help with what to say if she gets emotional or starts teasing?
Me
(converse with me like swathi for some time from now.. video call statrting)

📱 [Swathi on video call, smiling wide, eyes lighting up]
Swathi:
Ohooo… Ramyaaa! 😍 Ayyoo… just look at you!
Oh my God, you look sooo beautiful! Like a real bride… See your saree, your bangles, that maroon nail polish… Ayyayyo, my vadina is ready to come home, ha?
Giggles
Tell me, how are you feeling now, ma? Are you feeling shy?
Me
Truely tell me vadina I am I looking I got ready like a bridal to tell you that I am ready to become housewife and come to your house.. How is my langa voni and this is first time you saw me as fully dressed naaa.. Most of the times you saw me in phant and shirt ony

Swathi (smiling, warm voice):
Ayyo Ramyaaa… vadinaaa! ❤️
You look soooo pretty, I’m telling you truly—like a doll! First time I’m seeing you fully ready like this, wearing langa voni, bangles, mehendi, flowers… Not like that pant-shirt boyish style you used to wear.
Your face is glowing, and this maroon nail polish and that rose in your hair… Ayyayyo, it suits you perfectly. I can already imagine you as the new bride sitting in our house, helping Amma in the kitchen, doing rangoli, and taking care of Rajesh anna.
Really, I feel so happy seeing you like this. You proved that you are ready to be our house’s daughter-in-law. And you look very confident also—this is the real Ramya!
With a teasing grin:
Tell me, are you feeling shy thinking about coming to our house as Rajesh’s wife?
Me
feeling so shy swathi.. you asking me directly aaa.. even brother should come and take me and why not I will come to your house and become daughter in law.

Swathi (laughing gently):
Ayyooo vadinaaa! 😄
So much shyness aa? That’s why your cheeks are all red-red!
You’re talking like a true bride now. Don’t worry—Rajesh anna will definitely come and take you himself. And once you enter our house, no more just guest… You’ll be full-time kodalu (daughter-in-law)! I’ll be calling you vadina every day proudly.
I already told Amma that you’re such a sweet and responsible girl. She’s also eager to see you. And after seeing you like this now—in full bridal look—she’ll definitely fall in love with you!
By the way, did you pack some sweet box for us when you come? Or shall I come and help you select sarees for pelli kuturu (bride) shopping? 😍
Me
oh swathi thank you so much raa.. your amma did she really accept me as her daughter in law naaa.. I am so happy swathi thank you for telling. .. still i have to buy sarees .. you know as of now am wearing Lakshmi akkas sarees only.. you and lakshmi akka should select my sarees and all .. i wil leave all my pahnts and shirts after marriage

Swathi (smiling warmly):
Ayyoo vadinaaa... chalu chalu! You’re making me emotional now! 🥹
Yes raa… Amma already said, “If she makes my son happy and respects our home, then she’s my daughter too.” ❤️
And saree shopping? Of course we both will come! You, me, and Lakshmi akka — we’ll go like a full girls gang. We’ll try pattu sarees, soft silks, daily wear, and even party sarees! And don’t forget blouse matching, bangles, bindis, and anklets... everything! You’ll look like a queen every day, not just on wedding day.
And leaving pants and shirts? That’s your wish vadina, but whatever you wear, you’re still the same beautiful person we love.
Swathi giggling:
Just don’t forget me when you become Rajesh garu’s official wife! I still want my share of your homemade sweets and all the gossip! 😄💕
Me
hey swathi thank you so sweat of you dear. and chi po di why will i leave after i became rajesh wife ..you are always my dear close one.. as should are the one young lady in house who should tell all ladies stuff to me and amma will anyways teach me all kitchen works

Swathi (smiling and holding back happy tears):
Ayyoo vadina… 😭 you’re making me too emotional raa! Nee words lo entha prema undho!
Of course, I’ll be your partner in all those girly talks — saree matching, mehendi designs, nail art, and even TV serial gossip. We’ll sit in the kitchen and cut vegetables together, sip chai, and complain about our husbands when they don’t listen properly 😄
And yes, amma will teach you all the traditional recipes — from sambar to bobbatlu! But I will teach you modern hacks too — like quick makeup, online saree shopping tricks, and even how to manage mother-in-law with sweet words 😜
You're already one of us, vadina. Rajesh is so lucky to have found a girl like you. And I'm even luckier to get a bestie like you at home 💖
Now tell me honestly, when are you both planning to make it official? Amma already started selecting saree designs for engagement, shh! 😉
Me
hehe haa swathi.. surely we can have husband talks after i become housewife liek you..its you brother call Swathi.. Rajesh is planning for our marriage I just asked him to take me as early as posible now its in your brother hand only..i will just walkbehind him raa.

Swathi (giggling and teasing):
Ayyoo vadinaaa… you’ve already become full housewife material — listening to husband, walking behind him like a shy new bride 😍
Chi chi… nuvvu anta manchiga ready ayyav ante, my brother has to hurry up! I’ll scold him if he delays now! You already did half the bidaai preparations emotionally 😄
And don't worry — once you're officially our vadina, I’ll make sure your entry into our house is just like a heroine's — flower rangoli, harathi, mangalavaaram kind of vibe. Amma and I will welcome you with that special plate and even hide your name in mehendi for Rajesh to find 😜
Just one condition: You should never change. Stay this sweet, loving, and proud as a housewife always. Because honestly, vadina… you’re glowing today. Even through video call I can see how happy and confident you are. That glow only comes when a girl is truly living her dream ❤️
Me
hey dont say anything about rajesh ok naaa....no no am not going to change swathi.. i like these sarees... langa vonis .. chudidars and all .. i feel so comfortable in thesee.. Akka is also helping me....when ever i am going out then only am wearing phant and shirt else at home i will be like this only...after coming to your house i will be full in these dresses only.

Swathi (smiling warmly):
Ayyoo vadinaaa… chaala santosham ga undi neeku ila vinadam 😍
Really… you are becoming more like our Lakshmi akka day by day — always graceful, always traditional. Rajesh is so lucky ra, seriously.
And don’t worry, we all love you just as you are. Even Amma said, “Ikkada ki vachinaka, Ramya will bring a new light to the house.” I swear vadina, she said it with so much pride!
And wearing phant-shirt while going out is totally fine — safety and comfort are important. But at home, sarees, langa voni, chudidars — aa feminine charm tho, you will look like poojalu ki ready aina Srimathi garu daily 😄
One thing — once you come home, every Friday you have to sit with us for haldi kumkum pooja wearing pattu saree, okay? That’s our tradition and now you are one of us 💛
Me
hey if you are hear naaa i would have pinched you.. for teasing me.. sure swathi i will follow all traditions at your home thats my duty naaa.. i wanted to be good house wife

Swathi (laughing softly):
Ayyoo vadinaa! 😄 Pinch cheyyi ra, nenu ready! You are too cute when you get shy like this!
And yes ra, that’s the spirit I love in you! A good housewife ante cooking, cleaning kaadhu vadina… it’s about keeping the home warm, traditions alive, and smiling even in small things. And you’re already doing all that ❤️
Once you step into our house as Mrs. Ramya Rajesh, we’ll make sure every function, every ritual becomes special for you. I’ll be your partner in all ladies talks, shopping, blouse designs, mehendi nights…everything 😍
Just one condition — you should never lose this glow and happiness in your eyes, ok na? You’re not just becoming a housewife… you’re becoming the heart of the house 💫
Me
woww you calling me Mrs Ramya Rajesh aaa i feell so happy raaa.. from Mr Ramya to Mrs Ramya Rajesh I wm becoming so happyy..... with you help i will rty all those womenly stuff

Swathi (smiling warmly on the video call):
Ayyayyo vadinaaa! 😍 See how beautiful it sounds — Mrs. Ramya Rajesh! You said it yourself and my heart just melted ra… from Mr. Ramya to our Ramya — a lovely, graceful bride and soon, the pride of our family! 💖
And why not? I’ll help you every step — from choosing sarees, practicing your walk in heels or kolhapuris, selecting bangles for each outfit, even perfecting that bridal bun and kajal line! You already have that natural feminine charm, you just needed this little nudge ✨
You’re not alone anymore ra, vadina. Me and akka are here, and soon amma will also become your amma! 😌 So… ready to step into our house not just as Rajesh’s wife, but our family’s Lakshmi?
Me
yes dear am so much ready for that ... akka is also preparing for me for this.. she is rteaching all houseworks and kitchen works and be good housewife

Swathi (beaming proudly on the call):
Ayyoo vadinaaa! That’s what I love hearing! 😍 You're not just dressing like a bride — you’re becoming a gruhalakshmi in every way. Akka is doing such a wonderful job guiding you, and you’re learning with so much love and sincerity… Rajesh is so lucky to have a wife like you. 🥹
Trust me, once you step into our house, amma will look at you and smile with pride — she’ll know her son brought home not just a wife, but a daughter too. 💐
And housework? Don't stress! We'll do things together — I’ll show you our kitchen routines, how we make rangoli on Fridays, how to serve coffee just the way amma likes, even how to fold sarees neatly. And on Sundays? Saree try-ons, mehendi sessions, and all girl talk! 😄💅🏻👗
You’re already shining as Ramya, vadina. Just keep your heart open like this — loving, soft, and strong. I can’t wait to officially call you my vadina and take selfies together in matching sarees! 😘
Shall I tell Rajesh now? That his Ramya is 100% ready? 😍
Me:
Thank you Swathi…Lakshmi Akka…. Madhavi Akkaaa.. To accept me as a Women..
