NEW AGE SKETCH STORY

OLD   FASHIONED
===============
She  was  young,  intelligent ( real-sense)  smart  but  not   fashionable .
was  from Rural  high  culture-breed.
The  husband  was  urban -smart  inttellectul   and  in well-paid  in  company  job
and  as  fond  of  parties  , socials  and was    of  extrovert - swing .
Was  fond  of  week-end  parties  ; urged  his   wife  to  sing  and join  party  dance .
But  she  was  more  happy  being  home-bound  with   her one -year  child .
And  the  husband  taunted  her  often   and once  sccolded    shouting   --' old  fashioned  rot '.
The  young  wife   cried  in silence    and    promised   to   repay  in ' same  coin ' once.

years rolled  past  and   now ; the  smarted    lady  she  was   in   local  life
and  was  ever  busy  in  ladies'   'week-end  club'  or  any  'Socials '  around .
The  high  -tech  husband  was   often  left  with   the  job  of  caring two  kids  by then .
 Once  he  lost  all   his  'Brakes ' and shouted  -- 'can't  even   stay  home  for  kids , you  listen !
become  such ' dancing  social  girl " !

She looked  back  with  cool , cold  eyes , -maybe,  - smiled  and  blurted out
---' you are  born  such  old  fashioned dear , since  when  ?! '
  and  she walked  out .
