The Smart Suitor

Their horoscopes had matched.  

He had come with his family to see her.

She was on the wheel-chair. 

"I met with an accident last week. I may never be able to walk again..."

"That’s absolutely fine with me", he said.

He picked her up in his arms. 

"Marry me!" he proposed.

This was not as per her plan.

She had managed to drive at least a dozen grooms away using the same tactics- falsely projecting self as handicapped. 

He truly wanted to marry her! 

She didn't know that he had seen her dancing on the terrace a short while ago!
