Where does trust arise? How can I even believe?
Geet answered "They say that marriage is for life, they are so wrong. I've seen so much betrayal. They got me married to this guy from Canada. The guy abandoned me and I was pregnant. My family wanted me to abort the baby, I refused as it is a part of me. That is why they wanted to kill me."
Mein is bacche ko gira nahi sakti Maan. Mein akele hi uss ko paal sakti hoon sir. Isi umeed say mein yahan tak aayi sir.
Maan's eyes were watering for her. He could see her pain, determination, and his heart twisted with deep love and emotion. What had she not gone through in life? How can any man turn away from her? How can any man walk away from her? How can any man call himself a man after what he has done. His heart was filled with compassion and he could feel her pain.
He wanted to comfort her and held her in his arms wiping away her tears.
The power shut down and they both came out of their reverie. The song "Hum Tum" came on. They slowly drew apart. But he could not stop himself from gazing at her.
She could not hide her glances from him. The warmth and safety of his hug still warmed her cold and tired heart.
Both felt something intangible and undefinable flare between them as though time stood still.
He wanted to comfort her and give her the sense of well being. He also felt a tug and a pull towards her. He did not want to think of yesterday or tomorrow. He was lost in her universe.
He gently walked towards her. He wanted to pull her back into his arms and never let her go.
She withdrew from him, he felt bereft and lost. He wanted to hold her and keep her immersed in him forever.
She sat down near the couch and slowly slipped into a sleep. Her head was slipping and he just walked to the couch and slipped in beside her. Their shoulders were touching and her head dipped on to his shoulder.
He wanted to freeze the moment there for the rest of his life.
He had this woman's trust, what will he do with it? Hold it sacred and safeguard her or throw her into the world for her to be torn apart by the predators in the ring?
Maan Khurana was always and will always be a savior and do the right thing.
