Chapter 71

                                                              Part - 71

Maan keeps thinking of how to convey the truth to Geet...

He is also concerned about her health, can she handle it, Maan is worried that she will be hurt, badly hurt...she has been living with this dream for years and it would be hard for her to digest the fact that Khrish is not real, that would break her completely and she may faint and her condition could worsen further, moreover Maan is not an expert in handling sensitive issues concerned with the heart and soul...

Moreover Khrish is not Maan's problem, it's Geet's problem, Maan is only concerned about Geet believing that Maan is Khrish...that's his problem...

So he'll stop with his problem alone, he will make it clear to Geet that he is not Khrish, and that's it, she can go in search of her Khrish and just leave him alone...

He wants her to stay away from him, he wants her to leave his life and let him live in peace...

He wants his life back, he has lost his life since Geet entered his world and from then Maan has been so disturbed and feeling as if someone else is dictating his life and he is really scared of his own feelings...

He is so confused and is not able to decide what's gud for him and what's not...he would have been happier and lot more relaxed had he not changed his mind to get married, he knows marriage and relationships are not meant for him and he is more than happy on his own, being Single is far more easier and less complicated...

He thought someone like Sam who knows him from childhood and loves him may be able to adjust with his style of living better, but Mr.MSK marriage is not an adjustment or a compromise that you make with yourself just for the sake of getting married and settling in life...

Relationships are built on love and trust, you need to love someone truly and trust that they can make Ur life beautiful and take care of all Ur problems...Geet's love is pure and she blindy trusts her Khrish, she believes that she need not worry about her life for Khrish is there for her, he is someone she can rely upon when something goes wrong or she needs someone to simply hold her hands and say that you are not alone Geet, I'm there for you...

If you couldn't understand this simple fact then you are not fit to love anyone, leave alone Geet and you need not be her Khrish but you don't even deserve Sam...

Maan may not accept the fact that he likes Geet and he feels something personnel and very intense for her, something that even he couldn't understand how and why it happens...he is yet to realize that he is also sailing on the same boat as Geet...and their feelinds are mutual...

He thinks that Geet is driving him crazy with her histeric acts and insanity...he thinks that being in love and feeling mad about someone is insane...he believes that no one who is sane and has a strong head could fall in love with someone and it's just madness which only a person like Geet who has lost his mental balance could do it...for him love is not blind but love is crazy and only crazy people could fall in love...

Maan has decided that it should end, this insanity, this confusion, this frustration, this fear, yes, this thing is scaring him like anything, as if he is committing a crime...

He is just waiting for Sam...he wants Sam to know before he could say anything to Geet, after all this is Sam's plan and he is only following it, he has to tell her that he doesn't believe in this drama and he is not ready to continue it, he also wants to know what Sam thinks, and whatever is her wish Maan is not going to do this anymore, he just wants to inform her before he could go ahead and tell the truth to Geet as Sam is her doctor and she should be consulted before he tells Geet that he is not Khrish...

But Sam is still stuck with her work and she'll come later, Maan loses his patience and decides that he can't wait till Sam comes and is afraid that Sam may stop him from telling Geet...

He is confused as to why is he hesitating to tell the truth? It's not a sin to tell a truth, infact he didn't even think before he said yes to Sam though he knew that the truth is he doesn't love Sam and is not yet ready for any kind of relationship...still he did it for Dadi...then he didn't hesitate...

Now this is what he should do...this is what is good for everyone...this is the right thing to do too...yes, this is it, only this can free him off his guilt...only this will free him off his worries...

He then goes to find Geet...just then Vicky asks everyone one to come up the dance floor and shake a leg with their partners...

The music begins as Maan finds Geet and catches hold of her...

Maan: Geet, aao mere saath

All of them clap and think that they are a couple...

Vicky: come on Bro, lets start with you, and you are the senior

Pari: come on Geet

Dadi is surprised...but couldn't do anything...

Maan looks at Geet and Geet is all shy and her face lights up seeing her Khrish...

Maan thinks that it's difficult for him to take Geet alone and talk with her, he finds this as an opportunity to tell her everything...

Vicky: music shuru karo bhai

Music starts...

Dhere dhere se mere Zindagi mein aana...dhere dhere se dil ko churana...

Geet looks into Maan's eyes and her eyes convey him more intensely what the lyrics convey than the song itself...her eyes always speak for her and they speak the language of truth...

Maan is mersmerised and he goes speechless and helpless when he looks into her eyes...

They start dancing passionately completely lost in themselves...

The song continues and they look into each others eyes and without his knowledge Maan eyes keep telling Geet that yes, I'm Khrish, I am the one for you, I'm the one you are looking for, I'm your life...

Geet is overwhelmed with joy and she knows that her Khrish also loves her as much as she loves him or even more than she loves him and he doesn't know how to express it...

But she is happy that even though he doesn't say it loud, his eyes, those intense looks, that concern, that worried look when she is in trouble, that anger when someone tries to hurt her, all this are signs of love and if this is not love then what could be? Haina?

Maybe he needs some time to realize that he is in love with Geet, may be he is still confused, but she always knows that her Khrish is only her's, Geet's Khrish and he can never ever hide his love, she knows him since her college days and though Khrish seems to have forgotten everything, she can never forget the days she spent with her Khrish and he has become a part of her and no one can take him away from her, not even Khrish...

The music stops and Maan is still holding Geet...Geet keeps looking at him and tries to step back when Maan stops her not to leave him...

Everyone loved their intense dance and they start claping their hands...

Maan comes back to his senses and is angry with himself for losing control of his emotions...he looks like an emotional fool infront of this stupid Girl, she brings out all his hidden feelings and makes a mockery of his bindass act that he tries to put up as a weak defence against her strong love...

Maan pulls her to a corner and stares her...his eyes turn red in anger and he would burn her that very moment for no mistake of her's...

Geet is shocked...what's wrong? Why is he angry?

She didn't ask him to dance with her, he forced her to dance with him...

Maan: bas karo Geet, bas ab bahut ho gaya

Geet: meine kya kiya?

Maan: tumne kya kiya?

Geet: haan meine kya kiya, jo bhi kiya hai apne hi kiya hai

Maan: meine kiya?

Geet: haan

Maan: Geet, bas karo ye drama

Geet: kaisa drama?

Maan: ye pyar wala drama

Geet: kya?

Maan: Geet, itna boli bhi mat bano, tum sab jaanthi ho

Geet: mein ? ye aap kya keh rahe ho?

Maan: tum janthi ho ki mein Maan Singh Khurana hoon, the MSK

Geet: haan, mein jaanthi hoon

Maan: tum jaanthi ho ki MSK kaun hai

Geet: haan mein aapko jaanthi hoon

Maan: toh tum ye bhi janthi hogi ki mein Khrish nahi hoon

Geet: nahi aap hi mere Khrish ho

Maan: nahi Geet, ye galat hai, mein Khrish nahi hoon

Geet: aap joot bol rahe ho

Maan: tum mujhe joota kehthi?

Maan gets furious...

Geet is scared...

Maan: tum jooti ho, tummra pyar joota hai

Geet: nahi, mera pyar joota nahi hai

Maan: tummara pyar sacha hai toh tum Khrish ko chodke MSK ko kaise pyar kar sakthi?

Hmm Maan babu ko bhi patha chal gaya hai ki Geet Khrish ko hi nahi MSK hi pyar karthi hai...yahi aapka problem hai Mr.Khurana?

Geet: aap hi Khrish ho, toh mein aap se hi pyar kar sakthi

Maan: Geet, tumne suna nahi meine kya kaha? Mein Khrish nahi hoon toh nahi hoon, samjhi tum?

Geet: nahi, aaisa nahi ho saktha

Maan: yahi sach hai Geet, mein Khrish nahi hoon, ye sab ek joot hai, sab joot bolthe hai, kyunki tum bimar ho

Geet: mujhe kissi ki parwa nahi, kya aap ko bhi lagtha hai ki mein pagal hoon?

Maan: haan, tum pagal ho Geet, aur mujhe bhi pagal banane ki koshish kar rahi ho, lekhin Geet, MSK ko pagal banana itna aasaan nahi hai, samjhi tum?

Geet stops arguing further, there is no use of her fighting as her Khrish doesn't trust her,Khrish thinks that Geet is a liar and she is trying to fool him...

Maan: Geet ek baat khan kolke sunlo, mein Khrish nahi hoon, mein MSK hoon, aur MSK kabhi nahi badalega, aur koi MSK ko badal nahi saktha, tum bhi, samjhi tum

Geet keeps looking into his fiery eyes...for the first time she feels that her Khrish doesn't love her...Geet ke pyar mein koi kami hai, haina?

Tears start welling her eyes and she doesn't want her Khrish to see her tears...she doesn't want his sympathy...she only wants his love...

She turns away from him, wipes off her tears and leaves immediately...she leaves KM and runs on the streets like a fool...now she has completely become crazy...haan Geet pagal hai...

Geet keeps repeating his words...mein pagal hoon, Khrish bhi kehthe, mein pagal hoon, haan mein pagal hoon...

Sam is just coming in her car and she finds Geet coming...what is she doing here?

Sam stops the car and goes towads Geet...

Sam: Geeet

Geet: mein pagal hoon

Sam: Geet, tum kya keh rahi ho?

Geet: Sam, tum nahi janthi, mein pagal hoon pagal

Geet is crying like a kid as she talks...

Sam: Geet, ye tumme kya ho gaya? Tum kyun ro rahi ho?

Geet: Sam, san mujhe pagal kehthe the, lekhin mujhe bhura nahi laga

Sam: kisne kaha tum pagal ho, tum pagal nahi ho Geet

Geet: lekhin ab mujhe bahut bhura lagtha hai Sam

Sam hugs Geet and tries to console her...

Sam: Geet, tum ro mat, sab galat hai

Geet: Sam, Khrish ko bhi lagtha hai ki mein pagal hoon

Sam: Khrish?

Geet: haan, aur woh ye bhi kehthe hai ki woh Khrish nahi hai

Sam understands the problem...so it's Maan...

But why would he do that? He was all happy dancing with Geet...

Or may be he just danced with Geet only for the sake of Geet and it's not real!

Sam ne Maan ko kitna galat samjha? MK is MK...he'll never change...
