“We met at a party in India when we were teenagers and started hanging out everyday just as friends. It was a whole year like that and then one day at a party he had some ecstasy…some things happened and we were together. One day after that I was hanging out in some booty shorts smoking a cigarette and his mom saw me so she never liked me after that. In India you can’t smoke and dress like that. Then he had a party at his house and I came dressed all nice, buttoned up, you know, a respectable Indian girl, but his mom recognized me and she was like ‘What is this girl doing in my house!?!’ They didn’t want us to be together so they sent him to New York and we were long distance for about 6 months. That was really hard because of the distance and time difference so I finally decided either I was all in or all out. So I told my parents I wanted to travel and I went to meet him in New York. That was 5 years ago. About 2 years ago we moved here and here we are.”
“Do your parents know about you being together now?”
“Yeah, I got a bunch of joints, smoked, and called my mom to tell her. My family was still trying to set me up with a guy and I had to break it to them what the real deal was. She was pretty mad but I was so high I was just laughing so much!”
