Chapter 9

                      Part - 8

Munshiji: hum Geet ko Amristar bhej sakthe

Maan looks doubtful...he looks at Munshji...

Maan: aap kya kehthe hai? Amristar?

Munshiji: haan, Geet wahi jaa sakthi hai

Maan is happy to hear that...

Maan: Amritsar? Wahan kaun hai?

Munshi: hare aapko patha nahi? Geet ki mausi wahan rehthe hai

Maan wonders how come he would know about Geet...

Maan: achcha?

Munshi: infact,Geet bhi wahi rehthi hai, apne mausi ke saath

Maan: toh ussko Hoshiarpur aane ki kya zaroorat padi?

Munshiji explains the whole story...

Maan wanted to change her fate, that is save her from that mishap, save her from that marriage, he didn't wish to change her life, let her in his life, he knew that this girl is too young for marriage and for him it's only a drama, a fake marriage to fool the villagers...

His only intention was to save her for that moment, just like you save someone's life when you see their life in danger...that doesn't mean you take up that person's responsibility for the rest of their life too...haina?

It's just a humanitarian act, any one would have done that...

Now Maan feels pity for this girl, but still he is not ready to keep her in Delhi...

He is a little relieved that she has a place to stay...

Maan: toh aap Geet ko usske mausi ke paas chodke aayiye

Munshiji: mein? Mein kaise?

Maan also thinks that it may not be wise to send Geet with munshiji for he would bring her back to Delhi after her family convincs him that Geet is Maan's bride now and she is a Khuarana bahu...

Maan: nahi, aap pe koi barosa nahi, aap rehne dijiye, ye kaam toh sirf mein kar saktha, aap sirf hummare jaane ki tayaariyan kijiye, iss weekend ko

Munshi: achcha beta, ab mein chaloon?

Maan: teek hai, aap jaa sakthe hai...

Munshiji walks away quickly...he is still not happy to send Geet back, after all he is also very happy for her that finally she is lucky to have married into the Khurana's with such a loving daadisaas, Savithriji...

Munshiji knows that Dadi would not let Geet return home and he should inform about Maan's plans to dadi immediately...

Dadi had been expecting something like this from Maan but she didn't know that Maan would want her to go back, she thought she can convince Maan to let Geet stay in the OH without disturbing him and then Dadi can start her mission, to bring them closer...

But now that Geet won't be here, Maan would conveniently forget Geet in his work...

Dadi ne kya socha aur ye kya ho raha hai?

Dadi, it's not so easy to fool MSK...ab toh babaji hi kuch kar sakthe hai, dadi starts praying for her bahu...

At KM...dinner time...

Geet has already finished her dinner and left to sleep...she doesn't want to confront Maan...

So she has gone to her hide out(OH) before the lion returns to it's den...

Dadi eagerly looks at Maan...yes...he is looking out for Geet...

That's a good improvement...

Dadi pretends to ignore that...

Dadi: toh Maan bte, apne pasta liya?

Maan: ji dadi

Dadi slowly opens the topic...Maan seems to be in a good mood...

Why not? He has found a solution for his problem, haina?

Dadi: toh Maan bte, aapne kya socha hai?

Dadi wants to hear what munshiji told from Maan, she acts as if she is not aware of it...

Maan: aap kya baat kar rahe hai dadi?

Who knows dadi better than Maan...

Dadi: woh...aapke shadhi ke barein mein?

Maan: dadima, ye shadhi nahi pareshaani hai

Dadi: aaise mat kahiye bte, agar Geet sunthe toh unko bahut bhura lagega

Actually dadi ko hi bahut bhura laga, Geet ko bhi ye shadhi pareshaani hi lagthi...

Only dadi is happy with this marriage...

Maan: par ab toh sara problem katam ho gaya

Maan is so relieved...

Dadi: that's good, toh ab Geet yahi rahenge, hummare paas

Maan: what? never

Dadi: Maan bte?

Maan: Geet toh apne ghar jaa rahi hai

Dadi: lekhin Geet ab hummari bahu hai

Dadi plays the sentiment card which has zero effect on MSK as usual...

Maan: dadimaaa, aap phir se shuru mat kijiye

Dadi: hum toh bas sachayi ko aapke samne lane ki koshish kar rahe hai bte

Maan: kausi sachayi? Ye shadhi toh jootie hai, ek toh sirf an accident tha, humme issko ek bhura sapna mankke bhool jaana chahiye

Dadi: aap ke liye ye bhura sapna hoga, hummare liye toh ye dream come true hai

Maan: aap aaise sapne kyun dekhthe ho jo sach nahi ho saktha, aksar sapne sach nahi hothe

Dadi: par humne suna hai ki sapne bhi sach hothe hai, haina guys?

Maan: meinne toh sapne dekhna bhi chod diya

Maan becomes sad...dadi just wants to change this, wants her Maan to start dreaming again, start living again with all the happiness he has lost since his childhood...

Dadi: Maan bte

Dadi tires to console him by holding his hands...

Maan: dadi meinne faisla kiya hai ki Geet apne ghar wapas jayegi

Dadi: Hoshiarpur? Uss kamine ke paas?

Dadi pretends to be shocked...

Maan: aapko patha hai dadi? Geet Hoshiarpur mein nahi Amritsar mein rehthi hai

Dadi: achcha?

Maan: haan, apne mausi ke saath

Dadi: haan bte, humme toh abhi abhi yaad aaya, humne bhi suna hai ki Geet apne mausi ke yahan rethe hai

Maan: toh aapne pehle kyun nahi bathaya?

Dadi: hare, hum iss umar mein sab kuch bhool jaathe haina?

Maan: aap sach mein bhoo gaye ho ya phir?

Maan looks at dadi in suspicion...

This dadi can do anything for her Maan's happiness...even Maan knows that...

Dadi: ab toh hummare dil ke saath saath dimag bhi kamzoor ho gaya hai

Maan: mujhe sab patha hai dadi, aapka dil aur dimag donn kitne tez chalthe

Dadi: Maan bte, kyun na hum Geet ko apne saath rakhe?

Maan: kyun dadi?

Dadi: ab toh hum aksar bimar padjaathe, humme bhi kissi ki saath ki zaroorat hai, aur aapke paas to hiss budde dadi ke liye waqt hi kaha hai?

Maan: ab aaise nahi hoga, mein hamesha appke paas hi rahoonga

Dadi: kal hi koi naya project aayega toh aap udjaooge

Maan: nahi dadi, ab hum sirf yahan ka projects accept karenge, ab mujhe apne dadi se badkar kuch nahi hai

Maan also has relised that dadi is feeling alone just like him, atleast he keeps himself busy with all his work, poor dadi she stays alone all day...

Dadi: toh aap ne faisla kar liya hai?

Maan: haan dadi, ab Geet yahan nahi reh sakthi

Dadi: kyun nahi reh sakthi?

Maan: kyunki ye mera ghar hai, aur mein nahi chahatha ki woh yahan rahe

Dadi: toh ab ye aapka ghar ban gaya hai? hummara nahi?

Maan: dadima, ab toh apna drama band kijiye, ab isski koi faida nahi, Geeet...Geeet

Dadi: Geet toh sone chale gaye

Maan: itne jaldhi?

Dadi: humme kya patha ki aapki biwi kitne bhaje sothe hai?

Maan: dadi, aap bar bar aaisa kyun kehthe ho?

Dadi: babaji, ye aapne kaise Jodi banayi? Ek toh biwi ko ghar se nikhalne ki plan kar rahe hai toh dusre toh inki shakal tak nahi dekhna chahathe

Maan: dadima, pls, ye bakwaas batein mat kijiye

Dadi: ab kya hum apne babaji se shikayat bhi nahi kar sakthe?

Maan: Geet kahan hai?

Dadi: aur kahan? OH mein hi honge, ab toh yahan sirf aapki marzi chalthi haina?

Maan: aap sojayiye,gud night, aapki dimag ko bhi thoda aaram dedo, ab kuch bhi sochke koi faida nahi

Maan leaves with a victorious grin on his face...

Even this is possible only b'coz of that Geet, dadi thinks like that...

Dadi has to do something, now her mind works double fast...she had to beat her grandson at this age...

Maan goes to the OH...he wants to convey her the good news first, kam se kam aaj raat toh chain se sojayegi, bechari do din se bahut pareshaan hai...

Maan ko apni pareshaani se zyada Geet ki pareshaani takleef dethi...

That's his taqdeer, Maan thinks that he could overcome his fate, but that's impossible...

Maan finds Geet's room locked...he knocks the door for he knows that she will be awake...

Yes, Geet is still awake thinking about her own plans to handle this situation...

She can think of only one easy way, that is to run away as she had already planned...

Geet is not ready to open the door...she is not willing to let in the trouble...

For her Maan is the only problem, she has not even bothered about all that wedding drama, for her too it's just a way to get rid of her father...

Geet: kaun hai?

Maan: mein hoon?

Geet: mein hoon kya mein hoon? Koi naam nahi hai kya?

Maan gets angry...he had come in such a good mood(?) and this girl always annoys him...

Maan: Geeet

Geet: hare babaji, ye toh Dhust danav hai, ye yahan kyun aaye hai?

Geet gets scared...
