Mystery Behind Mishty... Part - 3

                                                                                           Part - 3

                Next week...Maan forgets about his studies and keeps thinking of this girl. What should he do? How will he tell her the truth...the ugly truth? He kept visiting her often and they have become good friends, he didn't want to spoil this friendship nor does she want to harm this. She waited for him to trust her fully and she told him about her wish to venture out into the streets one night...

                Maan was not ready and is not going to accept at all, but she pleaded him and threatened him to end this friendship if he didn't take her out one day, just a few hours, and no one will see them in the night. At last Maan gave up and it was decided that they would go out the following night. Geet would be ready at 11 pm and Maan would come and take her with him. Geet managed to get ready with her chains on as Maan was adamant not to give her the keys. He was afraid that she might set out of the house on her own and become a prey to another monster. And now she has forgotten everything and turned into this kid. He doesn't know that she is acting and her plans behind the act.

                So, Geet is all ready to execute her mission. This time, no mistakes. Maan comes and takes her as he promised, they walk in the streets of Mumbai, Geet is waiting for the right moment to escape, she has come so close to the police station , just metres away,

                Maan is holding her hand tight, she thinks of a plan, she wants gol gappe. As they wait for their turn at the chat stall, Geet releases her hand and starts running towards the station. Maan follows her and so do some goons

                "ye toh wahi hai", " pakdo usse", " mardalo" , " police ke paas jaathi hai?"

They surround her. Geet is terrified, ye log yahan kaise? She realizes her mistake, but it's too late.

She is in the hands of the gundas who were searching for her all these days.

                Maan comes to her rescue, this time he won't repeat the same mistake, ek bar galthi ho gayi, dubara nahi hogi, babaji ne Maan ko ek aur moka diya hai apne galthi ko sudarne ko, aur Maan iss bar koi galthi nahi karega.

                 He punches one goon and rushes to his Mishty in a second, he protects her pushing her behind his back. Geet is surprised, ye apne aap ko koi hero samajtha hai kya?

                But Geet loves it, the real fight, she tries to help him, but Maan doesn't want his Mishty to get hurt, already she suffered a lot b'coz of him, so he fights fiercely and the goons fall down one after the other...

As always our police men come after the fight though they were only a few metres away, they arrest the goons and take them to the station along with Maan and Geet. Maan told them that they tried to attack Geet and Geet too supported him. they file a complaint and come out, Geet thanked him for his help, she thought that only the police men could fight like that or her Salman, 

"not bad, tum bhi achche fight karthe ho, khaas mein bhi aaise kar sakthi? Tum mujhe sikhaaoge?" she asked him looking at his abs...she then continues...

"mujhe maaf kardho, ye sab mere wajhe se hi hua haina?".

Maan couldn't control himself now, how she trusts him and thinks so high about him...

"nahi, tumme maafi mangne ki koi zaroorat nahi"

Geet is surprised..."isse kya ho gaya?"

She tries to look into his eyes for an answer, but Maan can't face her eyes...

He looks on the other side...

                " tumme yaad nahi hai? tum mujhe jaanthi ho"

Geet looks at him seriously and she can't remember him...

                "nahi, mujhe kuch yaad nahi aaya"

                Maan tries to help her remember...

                "mein tumme jaantha hoon, uss raat, jab tum aaise hi bhaag ke aarahi thi, kuch yaad aaya?"

Geet ko kuch kuch yaad aatha...par teek se nahi...

                "mein wahi hoon, tummare ye haal ki zamedar mein hi hoon"

Geet is confused...

                " tum kya bol rahe ho?"

                "teek se yaad karo , tum mujhe kaise bhool sakthi?"

                "tum mujhe bahut confuse kar rahe ho? kya tum bhi usske aadmi ho? phir tum mere madat kyun karna chahathe ho? tumne apne hi aadmi ko kyun mara?"

                " nahi, tumme yaad nahi, jab tum mere paas aayi aur mujhse madat maangthi thi"

Geet now remembers him...that scoundrel...coward...eet

Geet's face turns red in anger...

Yes, she knows this man...this irresponsible idiot...

Geet stares Maan...

Maan couldn't face her as she has recognized him...

Geet thinks about that unfortunate night...and for your kind information Geet too wanted to cleanse her college campus off it's illegal activities and help the students who really wanted to study but were unnecessarily troubled by the few rougues who called students but were actually criminals...

They were using the students for their benefits...

This campus being a prestigious institute was a safe abode for them to hide amongst students...

And the one who supported them...is that Dev...

Geet had known about this Dev, the principal's son and his nexus with the drug mafia, she had been following him and that night too she had followed Dev and came to that jungle...Dev was drunk and in his intoxicated state he was trying to misbehave with a young girl, she was with him and suddenly he turned into this beast, she didn't expect that and she tried to run away, Geet too tried to help her and that's when she saw someone coming in a jeep, she tried to stop him and pleaded him to help her...

It was Maan...he was just passing by...

He stoped the jeep and when he saw that it was some stupid girl asking lift...

That was the old rude MSK, and as always he was indifferent to women and he ignored her and rode on his way...

After a while he came back to see what's wrong but he was too late...

Dev and his men took the girl and Geet to a nearby go down and Geet somehow managed to hit Dev with an iron rod and helped that girl to escape, but Geet landed herself into trouble trying to help that girl...she was surrounded by these goons and one of them hit her on her head with the lathi and she fell down unconscious, they thought that she was dead and they ran from that spot.

                Maan felt that he should have helped her and tried to know what happened from the people around, no one knew anything about that incident and that was not reported in the paper too, he then forgot about it completely till he met her again.

                "mujhe maaf kardho"

Geet just can't control her anger, what if she also went her way like Maan, what would have happened to that little girl? Isn't she like his sister, why are men like this?

She just gave him a tight slap...

Maan thought that he deserved this, and worse...Yes, these people who don't try to stop a crime are equally responsible for the crime ...Had the police been little more alert? Had the government been little more dutiful? Had Dev's father stopped him when he did his first mistake? Had Maan helped her on that day? Many crimes against women could have been averted with the support of men...haina?

                There is complete silence for a minute...then Geet starts walking and Maan followed her silently...he didn't know what would she do? She just went back to the campus, to Ms.Mathur's house...it's nearly 6 am and Ms.Mathur is already up...she is preparing tea for Geet...Geet rings the bell...Ms.Mathur is surprised to see her at the door that too with a man...

                Ms.Mathur is afraid that it's one of dev's men... She dragged Geet inside quickly and closed the door...Maan stood there waiting for Geet's reaction, he wants her to forgive him, he is not returning till then...Geet calmed Ms.Mathur down and opened the door...so she forgave him?

                " woh kaun hai? tum aaj hi kanyakumari jaa rahi ho, pack your bags, I have spoken to my friend Shanthi and she is ready to help us, she will take good care of you?

Geet is shocked to hear this, so is Maan...

                "kya? "...donno ek saath chilathe hai...

                "haan, ab tum yahan nahi reh sakthi"

Geet thinks of how she had troubled this old lady all these days...

                "sorry, meinne aapko bahut tang kiya haina? Ab aaise nahi hoga?

                Ms.Mathur hugs Geet..."aaise koi baat nahi hai, tum meri beti jaise ho, aur tummare alawa mere liye koi nahi hai iss duniya mein?

                "haina? Ye dekho, ye aapka bete jaise hi hai, haina?"

Maan doesn't know what to say, he just smiles...

                "thoda akdu hai, swarthy hai, dusron ki kadhar nahi hai, lekhin chalega"

What an introduction?

                "Dil se achcha hai"

So she has something good to say about him at last...

                "tummara naam kya hai?" Geet asked

Maan is surprised ...kaise ladhki hai?

"Maan Singh Khurana"

"meinne tere naam poocha, pura khandhan ki nahi"

"what?"

"btw, I'm Geet, Geet Handa"

Maan looks at her and then at Ms.Mathur...

Ms. Mathur invites him for tea...

"andar aao, chai phikke jao"

" ye toh yahan roz aatha hai, issko koi invitation ki zaroorat nahi, aao aao" Geet too welcomes him..

Ms.Mathur asks Maan to accompany Geet to Kanyakumari as her life is in danger...she tells them how some goons came in search of Geet the following day and how Ms.Mathur gave her the pills and how some of her students helped her to hide Geet in their room. Geet doesn't know anything about thia as Ms.Mathur didn't tell her anything as she would get scared...

She had then got a call from the principal himself that his son is out of control and he is after Geet's life...he wants to take revenge...so Ms.Mathur decided to send her out of Mumbai, and has arranged for her stay at a friend's place in TN...

Maan told her that there is no need for Geet to hide and he is going to tackle this himself...get rid of that Dev with the help of his father...he is ready to help them in any way he could...Ms.Mathur thanks him and Geet looks at him and wonders why the sudden change?

Then Maan and Geet filed a case against dev and they became the witness... Maan had seen Geet running for her life that night and Geet can identify the goons...till then no one was ready to help Geet in her fight against Dev and his notorious gang who had the Excel campus under their control and sold drugs to the students...Geet gave an account of everything that happened and Maan gathered evidences against them...Dev and his gang were arrested and the principal resigned his job...Ms.Mathur became the new principal and Geet stayed with her happily...

Maan helped Geet get out of her trouble and they together helped the students who were affected by drugs...Geet began to like Maan as he is now changing, taking care of Geet and also concerned about his peers...Maan proposed Geet and Geet accepted with one condition that he would never disrespect women, and Maneet's love story continued in the woods...

Now Maan doesn't take the pipes but Geet loved that Maan better...

"Maan, kabhi kabhi choron ki tarah chup chupke pyaar karne mein hi zyada mazaa aatha hai, haina babaji?" Geet told Maan about her new wish...Maan is getting ready to climb the pipes once again for his mishty...
