Part – 59
Next morning….
Maan has finished his breakfast and is ready to go…. Dadi is puzzled by his waiting after that…
Maan doesn’t waste his time at all… he is always on his heels in the morning…
Geet goes with the driver after spending some time with Annie…
So what is he waiting for?
Annie and Geet come to have breakfast…
Geet is surprised that Maan is still there….
Annie understands her bhai better….
Annie: bhai, app Geet ke liye wait kar rahe na? Geet told me about aunty’s project, Geet is too good, haina bhai?
Maan: hàan Annie, everyone liked it
Annie: aap ko pasand nahi hai kya?
Maan: everyone includes me too
Annie laughs…. : Seedhe seedhe bolo na bhai, yahan koi aap ke muh se sunne ke liye taras raha hai
Maan: it’s good, Geet has done a great job
Geet is happy that at last Maan acknowledged her work…
Annie: Geet, jaldhi jao, hum shamko bakhi baat karlenge
Geet: ji didi
Geet is off to change and comes back in a second….
At KC….
Geet is working on the final version of the plan all day…
She needed some place without any disturbance, for Sasha comes to Maan’s cabin every now and then, making Geet go crazy… Geet doesn’t like to see any girl other than herself anywhere near MSK…
That upsets her so much that she can’t concentrate on any other things…
So Geet left Maan’s cabin and went to the conference room…
There she has got a peaceful atmosphere and a lot of space to work…
She keeps calling Adi and Pinky for her aid… Pinky brings her the fuel( snacks and drinks) while Adi helps her with the work…
That’s not possible if she were to stay with Maan…
Maan would definitely not entertain her with food like Pinky but he would have loved to help her out with real work…
Maan didn’t expect her to shift her place so easily to his surprise…
Maan is happy that he can have his cabin back, all for himself, without any unwanted distractions…
Maan can’t deny the fact that his cabin has lost its charm without Geet…
Maan consoles himself that he has finally got what he wants, a safe distance from Geet…
Geet is so involved in her job that she has no time to think about Maan, as if she thinks about him otherwise…
Geet is busy all day…
She has taken into account all the inputs of the Sharmas and trying to fit most of them…
Maan is looking into the Khanna’s new project…
He has the confidence in Geet and so he left the Sharma’s project upon her ….
But he is still the boss…
Geet goes to show the plan to him for his approval…
Geet knocks the door….
Maan: come in
Maan thinks that it must be Sasha…
Geet gets in with the final plan eagerly waiting for Maan’s reviews…
Maan: Sasha, have you got the blue prints?
Geet gets annoyed hearing him address her as Sasha…
Looks like he has forgotten about Geet completely, let alone her being his personal secretary, he doesn’t even remember that Geet still works for him….
Geet: Maan sir, this is your personal secretary, Geet Handa, if you still remember that name?
Maan is pleasantly surprised to see Geet…
He looks up and just keeps looking at her without realizing what she was saying…
Geet gets angry that he didn’t even acknowledge his mistake and say something to please her….
He won’t apologize, he is Maan Singh Khurana, but at least he could say that he was expecting Sasha and so the mistaken identity…
Geet: I’m leaving
Geet turns to go…
Maan suddenly gets up from his seat and stops her…
Maan: rukh jao Geet
Geet: naam toh yaad hai?
Geet turns back and stares him…
Maan can’t help but admire her antics which he was missing the whole day…
Maan: what’s the matter Geet?
Geet: why do you even care to ask? You carry on with your work, I’ll go and ask Adi sir itself, at least he respects my work, he doesn’t think that I’m less capable than others like you
Maan thinks that he should send Adi to the site work from tomorrow so that Geet won’t have any other choice other than himself, Geet would surely not go to Sasha….
Maan: Adi? Adi has a lot of work to do and he is not your assistant, samjhe tum?
Why don’t you understand Geet?
Maan is here to help you all the time, he has got no better job than to help you…
She wanted her old boss back, here he is and she can’t recognize him….
Geet: iss office mein mera do hi friends hai, aur uss mein bhi aapko problem hai?
Maan: where were you all day Geet? What were you doing? My personal secretary should have been here with me for your kind information
Geet: so you remember that your secretary is missing only after seeing me? You never bothered to find out until now
Maan is speechless, only this girl can make him shut his mouth like this…
Maan wonders if there is anyway to stop this girl…. No, there seems no escape, he is helplessly trapped….
Geet looks at him puzzled… why isn’t he responding?
Maybe he doesn’t want to talk to her…. Then why did he stop her?
Geet: what do you want me to do?
Geet questions him angrily…
Maan tries to remember why he called her as she is acting as if Maan had only called her…
Then he realizes that she is the one who came to see him…
Maan: what do you mean?
Geet: you don’t have any interest in my plan, and you won’t even let me work with others, then what should I do? Leave the job and run away like a cry baby? Is that what you want?
Maan is shocked to hear that… he can’t believe what she is talking…
Geet continues as usual as Maan has not yet learnt the art of conversing with her…
Geet: if you have any idea like that, just forget it, I’m not a quitter, no matter how hard you try to stop me, you won’t be able to stop me, I’m here to prove myself and will definitely show you who I’m
Maan: have you finished?
Geet pauses….
Maan: now just tell me why you came to meet me actually?
Geet then looks at the plan in her hand…
Maan: what is that?
Geet: nothing, I’ll show it to aunty itself
Geet is about to leave… Maan shouts…
Maan: Geeeeet
Geet stops and Maan himself takes the files from her hand forcefully…
Maan sits and starts looking at the file while Geet stands there and keeps staring him…
Maan: you can take your seat, and continue staring me with your big eyes
Maan says without even taking his eyes off the file…
He knows her so well that he doesn’t have to look into her face to read her expressions…
Geet sits quietly as she is happy that finally Maan is having a look at her revised plan at least…
He didn’t care to see her plans, which she toiled day and night in front of him to get ready for the first time,while he was only interested in Sasha’s…
Geet was expecting him to at least have a look at it just for formalities, but he didn’t which is why she is mad at him…
This time she herself has brought it to him to see and give his feedbacks….
She really wants to know his views, she believes that he is successful because of his capabilities of being the best… she wants to learn a lot from him as she wants to emulate his success… she is also here to win and make a successful career just like him…
She likes how Maan doesn’t discriminate between male and female, Maan gives Sasha her due respect for her work and he doesn’t have any male ego like her family members who always put their ladies down in front of everyone… they never appreciate their ladies for fear of losing their upper hand…
Geet just wants Maan to appreciate her work too…
Though everyone praised her, Geet is only concerned about Maan’s opinions… nothing else matters to her…
Geet keeps looking at him like the contestants of a reality show looking at the judges…
Her happiness lies in his acknowledgement… though she is working hard just to establish herself, she has always gone that extra mile to keep up with Maan’s standards… she has learnt a lot about him in these few days that now she knows what it takes to get MSK’s approval…
Geet is used to his appreciation and backing, her expectations have only grown up with every passing day, so much that now she won’t accept anything less…
Maan on the other hand is trying to withdraw… he wants to maintain a safe distance form Geet so that it would be easier to part ways later…
Maan has unknowingly let himself too far into this relationship that he is finding it hard to retreat…
Now his ego won’t let him accept the truth while his mind still keeps wavering whenever he sees Geet….
It’s a struggle between his wounded self-esteem and his unstoppable desires…
