Chapter 109

                                                           Part - 109

As Maan waits impatiently for Geet's arrival he gets more and more frustrated...

He keeps asking Mr.Handa about Geet and when she'll return...

Mr.Handa tells Maan to go and take some rest for Geet will come back only late in the evening...

He shows him the guest room but how sould Maan take rest while his Geet is not with him...

Maan instead becomes curious to see Geet's room, he can atleast keep watching her things and refresh his memory until Geet returns...

Maybe he would get some clues to how Geet knows Maan and why she calls him Khrish and herself Angel?

 If Geet had known him before she must have some memories of their love...

But Maan couldn't find anything related to him there...

He only finds some old albums of Geet where she looks like a real princess for her mother used to dress her up like a princess when she was a little girl, but when Geet grew up she found herself isolated due to her unusal dressing and she then started to wear simple clothes which she liked very much...

She always wanted to be one among the rest and never wanted to be treated differently...

There is some pictures of her with Pinky too...

Then Maan searches for her recent snaps and finds some of her college photos...

There she is seen with her friends in Manali and also a picture of her with the Dr couple whom Maan met at Manali...

Yes Geet did go to their house but then Maan didn't meet her there, how is it possible for Maan went there a couple of years before Geet...

Moreover Maan just stayed there for a night as his jeep broke down but he fixed it then itself and left the next morning all alone and didn't remember picking up or dropping anyone...

Now Maan had found out how Geet knew that triple chicken Lasangne recipe that aunty made...she must have made for Geet too...

Geet is seen sharing some pasta with them...that's uncle's favorite and aunty often makes that...

But how did Geet get to that place first of all, it's in the interior of the jungle and no one dares to enter that space except for the locals...only the Dr.couple are outsiders for they have dedicated their life for the tribals...

Maybe they are related to Geet someway...maybe Geet was also there at their place when Maan went there...maybe Geet saw him but Maan didn't notice her then...

Maan goes and asks Mr.Handa about the couple but he doesn't know anything about them...

Maan returns to Geet's room to find more clues...

He finds a scrap book where there are some scribbles and it looks like Geet has written something...

"Khrish doesn't love me"

"Khrish hates me"

"khrish is angry with me"

"Khrish doesn't like me"

"Khrish doesn't want to talk to me"

"Khrish doesn't want to meet me"

"khrish doesn't want to be with me"

"Khrish will never come back to see me"

"Khrish will never like me"

"Khrish will never talk to me again"

"Khrish will never love me"

"I lost my Khrish"

"I can never get my Khrish back"

"i love you Khrish"

"don't you worry about me, I won't come and disturb you again"

"I won't trouble you again"

"but I never cheated you, how can I cheat my Khrish?"

"Khrish thinks I'm a cheat"

"I'm a cheat"

"I'm a liar"

"Khrish says that he never loved me"

"I know you love me khrish, but don't hate me"

Maan reads it to find out that Geet is really upset after Maan called her a cheat...

 "Khrish hates me"

Again all the statements are repeated...

This is what she has kept on thinking in her mind all these days and she must have actually become mad...

Maan then carefully looks for more clues...

He then finds a shelf full of books, novels, comics and even epics...teh one that captured Maan's eyes is the Mahabaratha...and also more about Lord Khrishna...

Geet must be interested in reading the epics and her favotite is definitely Khrishna, not the Gopiyar's Khrishna but the Khrishna who helped the pandavas, their savior...there is a picture of Khrishna riding Arjuna's chariot on her wall...it says..."Khrish...my savior...???????"

Just below that is the answer for that too..."Mera Khrish aagaya...apne Geet ko bachane... "

Also there are Newspaper clippings of poor innocent girls being victims of the cunning wolves in the recent days...including Delhi's Nirbaya case...it's been highlighted with a big question mark...

And there are many more similar articles...

And in that she has scribbled a lot, where are you Khrish? Come soon khrish, hate the world,evil rules, where is khrish to save the innocent souls? Come and protect your Geet from the hawks, your Geet needs you Khrish, I know you will come and punish the culprits... Waiting for Khrish... all that points to only one thing, she believed in Khrish, her own savior, just like every girl wants a Rajkumar with all the might and riches to take care of her like a princess all that Geet wished for is a Khrish for Geet just like the Khrishna for Arjuna...

Yes, Geet has found her Khrish...a real khrish...a real savior...

Maan is worried about Geet now...

He runs to Mr.Handa and asks him about it...

Mr.Handa thinks that Maan doesn't know about Khrish...

Mr.Handa: it's all b'coz of this Khrish that my daughter is suffering like this now

Maan: what happened to Geet?

While Maan is talking with Mr.Handa he sees a shadow figure hiding and listening to them

He thinks that it must be someone trouble maker and he excuses himself and follows that figure...

It is non other than Rajji, Geet;s little sister who has returned from school...

She looked suspiciously at Maan and was also worried...

Maan didn't bother her much as she is just a kid now Maan thinks that she must have something in her mind and Maan catches hold of her and threatens her for overhearing his conversation with Mr.Handa...

Rajji looks frightened and she is just a reflection of Geet...

Maan tries to befriend her for then only she would open up...

Maan: hi, I'm Maan Singh Khurana, Geet's friend, who are you?

Rajji wouldn't speak...

Maan: I know you must be Geet's sister, what's your name?

Rajji is still afraid to talk with a stranger...

Maan: I came to see Geet, I think you must be knowing where she is?

Rajji: who are you?

Maan: I told you, I'm Geet's friend

Rajji: no you are not

Maan: how do you say that?

Rajji: I know Geet didi doesn't have any boy friend

Maan: but they say Geet has a boy friend and you also know it

Rajji: no, it's not true

Maan: how are you so sure?

Rajji: I know my didi more than all of you, she doesn't have any boy friend, it's all her dream, her Khrish

Maan: dream, your sister is a day dreamer, haina?

Rajji: I don't know, but she dreams a lot and Khrish is her dreamy prince

Maan: that's what I too believed

Maan now doubts that Khrish is her imagination...also Maan now even doubts that Geet is insane like the others say...

Rajji: don't know when will Didi realize the truth

Maan: what truth?

Rajji: about her Khrish, that there is no Khrish in real, that she can never find a khrish in this cruel and fake worlds

Maan: maybe she found her Khrish

Rajji: that's what is her problem, she believes madly in her Khrish and her craziness has crossed every limit, it has made her life hell

Maan: is she really insane?

Now Maan is not ready to brand her insane, Geet pagal nahi hai...haina?

That makes Rajji angry...

Rajji: so you are one of them, didi is not mad,but with all your lies you peope have turned her mad completely

Rajji becomes very sad...

Maan: Geet is not insane , Geet pagal nahi hai, haina?

Maan also knows that...

Rajji: Geet is not insane...meri didi pagal nahi hai

Rajji shouts...Maninder comes...

Maninder: usske saath reh reh ke tum bhi pagal ho gayi ho

Rajji: aap logon ke saath rehthi toh aap log mujhe bhi pagal bana denge bade papa

Maninder raises his arms to beat Rajji and Maan stops him...

Rajji now believes that Maan must really be Geet's well wisher...

Rajji: bachao mere didi ko, ye log meri didi ko jeethe jee maar dalenge

Maninder: shut up you fool, God has forgot to put some brains into these girls' head, all are insane

Rajji: no all of you are only mad, sab pagal ho gaye hai

Rajji is scared of her uncle and also she looks so worried and helpless, as if she is also waiting for someone like Khrish to save the poor souls from these men...

She starts to blame her family for Geet's plight...

Maan: what are you saying? Is Geet in trouble?

Rajji: who are you?

Maan has the answer now...

Maan: I'm Khrish, Geet's Khrish

Rajji is happy to hear that...

Rajji: you are Khrish, I knew, Khrish hai, Geet Didi never lies, Khrish hai Didi

Maan: haan Geet, now I know, I'm khrish, Geet's Khrish

Rajji: Khrish!!!!!!! I can't believe it, so you are the one who played hide and seek with Geet Didi,you played with her emotions and made her look like a fool in front of everyone, you made false promises, you left her in the lurch when she trusted you so much,why did you do that? Why did you leave Geet? Don't you ever think of ditching my Didi, warna mein appko chodungi nahi, samjhe aap?

Maan: I never left her, I never made any promises, I never knew I'm Khrish, I never knew Geet loved me all these years

Rajji: what?

Maan: first of all I never met her before, I never knew someone is there who loves me so much until I met her in Mumbai, not even then did I know that Geet loves me, MSK, not until this very day

Rajji noe demands an explanation from Khrish who put her Didi into so much trouble...

Rajji is shocked...: how is that even possible?

Maan: it is possible, it is very much possible, this is how Geet found her khrish, this is how Geet loved MSK

Maan showed something to Rajji and Rajji is also shocked...
