A Weekend in Pune



It was a sunny Friday afternoon in Pune, and Raj was looking forward to a relaxing weekend. His wife, Meera, had planned a small surprise for him, but he had no idea what it was. As they drove back to their cozy home in Koregaon Park, Meera’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

“Raj, I’ve planned something a bit different for us this weekend,” Meera said with a mischievous grin.

Raj raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Oh? What’s that?”

“You’ll see soon enough,” Meera replied cryptically.

When they arrived home, Meera led Raj to their bedroom where a large box sat in the center of the room. She handed him a note.

“Read this,” Meera instructed.

Raj unfolded the note, which read:

Dear Raj,

This weekend, you will step into a new role – that of a charming housemaid. Yes, you heard that right! I’ve prepared a little adventure for us to have some fun and explore new dynamics. Embrace the role, and let’s enjoy the weekend. I promise it’ll be playful and full of laughter.

Love, Meera

Raj’s eyes widened as he glanced at the box. He looked at Meera, who was now holding a selection of elegant housemaid outfits.

“Are you serious?” Raj asked, half-laughing, half-dumbfounded.

“Absolutely,” Meera said, her eyes twinkling. “Let’s see how well you can handle the role. I’ve planned some fun activities for us, and I’m sure it will be a memorable weekend.”

Raj, always up for a bit of adventure and keen to please his wife, decided to embrace the challenge. With a mixture of excitement and nerves, he opened the box. Inside, he found a beautifully crafted housemaid outfit, complete with a frilly apron and a pair of comfortable ballet flats.

As Raj slipped into the outfit, Meera helped him with the final touches. She adorned him with a delicate headband and gave him a playful wink. “You look fabulous!”

Despite feeling a bit self-conscious, Raj couldn’t help but laugh at the situation. Meera guided him through the day’s activities. They started with a fun “housemaid training session,” where Raj was tasked with tidying up the living room, organizing the bookshelves, and even preparing a tea tray. Meera played the role of the demanding “mistress” with good humor, making sure Raj was having fun.

The highlight of the weekend was when Meera invited a few close friends over for a brunch. Raj, now fully embracing his role, served the guests with grace and humor, adding an extra layer of entertainment to the gathering. His friends were amused and supportive, and the atmosphere was filled with laughter and playful banter.

As the weekend progressed, Raj found himself enjoying the novelty of the role. Meera’s enthusiasm and the fun activities she had planned made the experience surprisingly enjoyable. They spent the evenings watching movies, discussing the day's events, and laughing about the mishaps and triumphs of the housemaid duties..

As they relaxed on the couch, Meera leaned over and whispered, “Thank you for being such a good sport, Raj. I’ve had so much fun, and I hope you have too.”

Raj smiled, his face still slightly flushed from the day’s activities. “I did, Meera. It was definitely a weekend to remember.”

With that, they both laughed, enjoying the final moments of their playful adventure before returning to their everyday lives, grateful for the special memories they had created together.
