Adultery Divorced mom

"I see, you like this soap very much," Vipin uncle interrupted.

"Oh yes, I watch it everyday. Just this one, not all," mom said with a smile.

"You ladies, love to watch these romantic TV series. These are purely emotional stuff, which just make you laugh or weep. Pretty mindless. Nothing sensible in those," Vipin uncle said with a flourish of his hand.

"I agree. But after watching a few episodes, one gets addicted and there is no way to get out. You have to watch every episode," mom replied laughing.

"Aah! So that's it. You are addicted to this thing. But if you love this serial so much, you must also behave like the characters."

"How? Run around trees, singing like the heroine?" mom asked laughing.

"Oh no. That would be stupid. I meant you could have a romantic affair like the heroine. Besides, you are no less attractive than the heroine in that TV series. I am sure you have scores of male admirers. They would love to have a roaring affair with you."

"I am really flattered Vipin. But I don't have an hour glass figure like that heroine. And she must be half my age."

"I am not flattering you Shobha. I am just telling you the truth. In real life, men don't desire skinny models as companions. They prefer fleshy, plump women like you. And as for your age, well I would always go for a middle aged, experienced lady ten times out of ten," Vipin uncle poured more whiskey into the empty glasses.

"Thanks for the compliments Vipin. About what you said, I can only say that it would look extremely foolish if a woman with a grown up son suddenly started a romantic affair. Besides, Sandip would be the target of ridicule from his friends. He might be angry with me," mom said somewhat thoughtfully.

Vipin uncle had found a point to dwell on. "That is all the more reason to have an affair. Sandip is now employed in a far away town. No friend of his would know whether you are having an affair or not from that far. Sandip is hardly likely to return here. Now that he has a good job, he will marry Swapna very soon and settle there permanently. Maybe he will come occasionally to see you, but that is all. He will be having a lot of enjoyment with Swapna there. He would hardly have any time to even think about you. You will be left all alone. And some undesirable elements might try to take advantage of your loneliness by pestering you. But if you have a husband or a reliable boy friend, no one would think of taking advantage of you," Vipin uncle said as he replenished the glasses.
