Chapter 28

                       Part - 27

Even though dadi is worried that Maan has hurt himself trying to help Geet she is happy that this has brought them closer.... 

Dadi supports Geet in every way she could... She praises Geet for her courage and keeps her motivated whenever there is a small setback and Geet feels low.... Dadi always says that she has a lot of confidence in her potha and MSK could never fail.... Geet complains that Maan is not taking her seriously and that he has changed a lot....dadi agrees with Geet that Maan has definitely changed and thats only because he has started taking Geet seriously....

Dev is gone out with his friends and KC is now under Maan's control... everyone at KC hates this time... they find it difficult to manage the on and off MD MSK... Since they are used to Dev's easy going nature they are scared when Maan demands things to be done his way ..  but this is the time that makes them reinvent themselves and correct their mistakes... but this time around half of their burden is shared by Geet herself nad they are little relieved as Maan is not after them 24*7...

Geet doesn't know about all this routine and is surprised to see Maan staying all day in KC...

Maan then calls Geet to his cabin... actually it's the MD's cabin usually occupied by Dev...

Geet comes in with the expectation that Maan would have a look at the current projects and leave.... She knows that Maan is not like Dev but is a tough task master... She has done all her homework and is ready to get things done quickly and send MSK back soon....

Geet knocks the door....

Maan: come in

Geet enters with all the files and her face is hidden behind.....

Maan: where's Geet? 

Maan shouts as he is annoyed that Geet has not come.... Maan can easily identify Geet even without seeing her face...

Geet has sent Pinky with some files.... She just knocked to help Pinky get in and she went to take the rest of the files....

Pinky: sorry sir

Pinky drops the files on the table which scatter everywhere.... She then leaves in search of Geet....

Geet enters.... She is angry that Maan scolded Pinky unnecessarily...

Maan is happy.... : Good morning Geet

Geet: kaise good morning? Why did you shout at Pinky, she was here only to help me, now who will help me?

Maan: mein hoon Na?

Geet: kya? Aapne pehle hi bahut zyada madat kardhiya, ab aur nahi

Maan: Geet ye sab kya hai? 

Geet: all the project details for the month

Maan: but I didn't ask anything

Geet: but I know you will need these

Maan: Geet pehle issko clear karo

Geet keeps staring him without moving...

Maan: what's your problem Geet?

Geet: that's what I should ask you

Maan: kya?

Geet: woh someone told me that they would help me

Maan smiles and gets up to help her...

Geet then bends down to reach a file... Maan also teaches out for the same file... As Geet grabs the file Maan grabs her hand pretending to grab the file.... Geet turns towards him and stares him.... But he is not going to leave her easily....

Geet: mein bhi kisski madat mangthi

Maan just enjoys all her nakras...Geet snatches the file and manages to relive her hand....Geet shouts....

Geet: Adi sir, Adi sir

Maan suddenly closes her mouth with his hands....

Maan: chup bilkul chup

Geet looks into his eyes.... Maneet eyelock.....mahiiii.....

Adi comes running...he then starts his famous laughter seeing them....

Adi: I'll come later sir.... He leaves....

Geet tries to signal him to stop... But Maan pulls her and she goes and hits him.... Geet tries to get away...Maan wouldn't let go of her...

Geet gets angry...she pushes him.on the chair and starts collecting the files...she thrusts then one by one on his hands.... Ye lo Khanna ki files, aur ye Sharma ki files aur ye

Maan: Geet, stop it,what are you doing?

Geet: ab apna kaam jaldhi katam karo aur yahan se chale jao

Maan: kya? Geet ye mera office hai

Geet: toh aap yahan aaram karo, mein jaa rahi hoon

Geet tries to leave....Maan puts them on the table and stops her by catching hold of her hand .... 

Maan: aaise kaise jaa sakthi? 

Geet: mujhe aur bhi kaam hai, you know I'm the MD's secretary and not yours

Maan: Geet, now I'm the MD 

Geet: what? I'm Dev sir's secretary

Maan: you just said that you are the MD's secretary

Geet: but Dev sir is our MD

Maan: Geet tum bhool Gaye ho ki mein tummare Dev sir ka bhi MD hoon

Geet: toh kya?

Maan: now get me a black coffee Ms. Secretary

Geet: aap na bilkul pagal ho gaye ho, mein kya tea boy lagthi hoon

Maan stares her at the wrong place and nods his head....

Maan: bilkul bhi nahi, tum toh meri personal coffee girl lagthi ho

Geet adjusts her dupatta..... : Kya?

Maan: I know Geet, you don't want to leave me, I mean my cabin

Maan gets closer and closer... Geet runs to get his coffee....

And Maneet masti continues in KC....

Maan asks Gurvinder to file a petition asking for a post mortem of Channi and start questioning the progress of the case.... Gurvinder is also looking for someone like Maan as he didn't know what the legal proceedings are.... Maan becomes Gurvinder's lawyer and from now on it's Gurvinder's case.....the case is fought at the nearest local court which is the Amritsar court....

Maan argues that it's a sheer case of delibrate negligence and it's just not a single case and there are a lot of channis whose death doesn't even count...he asks the judges to see the larger picture and take serious action.... Though Geet wanted to see the proceedings Maan strictly refuses to take her along... He didn't want to take any more risk.... Geet gets to know everything from Maan himself.... Maan gets a reason to meet her then... Or else Geet keeps running away from him....
