Chapter 66

                                        Part - 66

The baraat has arrived.....

The bride's family is ready to welcome the groom....

Bangra time.... all the uncles, aunties, dadi's, dada's and the kids are all dancing....

The boys are having a good time.....

The girls too join the party.... 

Aditi and Diya are learning their baby steps....

Diya is struggling and Dev carries Diya on his shoulders and dances.....

Aditi keeps looking at Dev.....

Maan immediately lifts Aditi and dances with her.....

Geet is just a spectator not in a mood to dance....

Annie goes and brings Tanvi too....

Annie wouldn't spare Geet..... Geet reluctantly joins the girls....

Maan's eyes are on Geet constantly....

Maan knows Geet is an expert in bangra....

Geet can feel Maan's penetrating looks.... She is not feeling comfortable doing bangra in a saree...

She keeps adjusting her pallu...

Maan goes to her left and covers her so that she could dance without any dress consciousness....

Geet forgets about the saree and turns on her masti mode full on.....

Dance is a very good stress buster.... Geet should try it regularly, or she is forgetting her steps....

Maan is happy to see Geet dancing merrily....

For a few minutes Geet forgets about all her worries and dances her stress out.....

Dev is new to bangra and Pari comes to his rescue....

She shows him a few steps and Dev learns the tricks pretty quick....

Pari: wow Dev, you are too good

Dev: the credit goes to the guruji

Dev salutes Pari.....

Pari: look at Geet, she's a nutural

Dev: even i'm surprised

Pari: Geet rocks

Dev: you are also good I must say, saree suits you better, you look like a south Indian bride in this

Pari is happy.....: thanks Dev, i was just worried that no one complimented my saree

Pari goes and hugs Dev....

Dev doesn't complain..... 

Annie's eyes have caught Maneet merrily enjoying each other's company....

Annie is still feeling guilty for whatever their families have done to Maneet.....

At least Geet has happily moved on or she has made a compromise with her priorities and is being happy in whatever life her family has chosen for her.....

Annie ko lagtha ki Maan abhi bhi Geet ke baat ko manega.....

Annie thinks that only Geet could save Maan from this misery....

Annie goes near Geet...

Geet stops dancing and looks at Annie....

Annie: Geet, mein toh bhai ko bahut din ke baat itna kush dekh rahi hoon

Geet eyes automatically zoom in on Maan....

Yes, he is indeed happy for his Geet is happy... 

Maan signals Geet to come back....

Maan tries to get Geet back to dancing....

Annie: bhai, ek minute

Annie asks Maan to wait for a while....

Poor Maan is cursing Annie to have ruined Maneet masti moments...

Annie continues as Maan silently keeps looking at Geet....

Annie: you won't believe what bhai went through after you left him

Geet: so he still thinks that I left him? Good for him, MSK kabhi nahi badal sakthe, how could you believe him didi? Just because he is your bhai you can't always support him

Annie: but Geet, bhai always wanted to be with you only

Geet: where was he when I came back? He went into hiding just to avoid me

Annie: nahi Geet, it's not like that

Pari comes and takes them back to the mandap....

They are ready for the muhurat....

Panditji has started saying the mantras.....

When they are about to leave Annie whispers.....

Annie: we need to talk Geet

Annie thinks Geet is still very angry for whatever happened and she thinks Maan is the one behind everything....

Annie has to clear things out with Geet....

Last time itself she should have supported Geet....

Geet has every right to know what happened then.....

Geet too wants to know what Annie is trying to say.....

The bride and groom look perfect together....

Their parents are the happiest people at the mandap....

The phera's are done and the couple are happily married.....

Annie can't stop thinking of how wonderful it would have been had Maneet wedding went on as per plan...

Annie and Geet did a lot of shopping together and both of them looked forward to the wedding eagerly as they have just enjoyed so much in Annie's wedding....

It would be double fun for with Geet as the bride and Annie would be her nannat.....

Annie automatically turns and looks at Geet who is also lost in her thoughts....

Geet looks very upset after Annie talked to her....

Annie feels guilty that she has just been unfair to Geet.....

Annie gets near Geet and whispers in her ears....

Annie: I too miss your wedding Geet, I'm sorry for what I just said, I didn't realise that you are hurt too, haina? 

Geet: aap kya kar sakthe hai? it's all my fate

Geet feels as if someone is looking at her, it's her very own stalker, MSK...

Geet tries hiding behind Pari.... But she can't escape Maan's hawk eyes....

Maan is worried that Geet is not looking so good after her conversation with Annie....

Iss Annie ne aaisa kya boldiya hoga?

When everyone is busy taking photos with the couple Maan goes and takes Geet catching her hand, to some place alone....

Maan: kya hua Geet? tum itne pareshaan kyun ho?

Geet: aap ko meri chintha kab se hone lagi?

Geet spits out her anger.... She can't help but think about her helpless situation back then.....

Maan suddenly pushes her onto the wall there by locking her within his arms....

Maan: aaise pucho ki mujhe teri chintha kab nahi thi

Geet looks into his eyes and they never lie, she can't ignore the concern in them for her just like the olden days....

Geet: mujhe jaana hai

Maan: tum kab tak aaise bhagthe rahogi Geet? ab chod bhi do, tum bahut tak chuki ho, ab aur nahi, ab tumme apne hi zindagi se bhagne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai Geet, jo galthi meine kiya woh tum bhi mat karo Geet

Maan breaks down.....

Geet uses the chance and runs away from that place......

Geet goes to find Aditi ....

Aditi is with Dev....

As Geet moves towards them Annie comes.....

Annie: Geet come with me

Annie takes Geet up to the bed room.....

Annie: Geet, I think you don't know what happened to bhai

Geet: you are only trying to defend Maan, no matter what, you can't just justify what he did to me

Annie: but Geet bhai was left shattered after the wedding got cancelled, yet he wanted to believe that there must be a misunderstanding and he came to meet you, I don't know what exactly happened then, but bhai went mad and unfortunately got back to his liquor addiction, we thought we would loose him if he stayed here, so Dadi forcefully sent him back

Geet is shocked to know that.... She didn't know that Maan had such problems....

She has never seen him touch drinks, even when all the others were consuming it like a part of the meal at Annie's party Maan gave Geet company drinking soft drinks....

Why would Maan need any other intoxicant when he is with Geet?

Infact even the Khurana pariwaar found out about this only later from his friends when he went missing in Canada else they wouldn't have sent him back only to suffer alone.....

Annie: I'm happy that you have got such a beautiful family, I want to see bhai like that, you can call me selfish but I just can't see bhai like this while you have forgotten him 

Geet understands Annie's point, if the love was mutual so must be the suffering... Annie thinks Geet is happy while Maan is still suffering....

Annie ko kya patha ki Geet kiss halat mein hai.....

Geet doesn't think that Annie is wrong... It's natural that you want to see your loved ones happy....

Geet: you are not selfish didi, you have every right to see your bhai happy, but if you still think I'm standing between your bhi and his happiness then you are wrong

Annie: I'm not blaming you Geet, I just want you to help him find his life back, his smiles back, I just realised that you still influence bhai a lot

Geet: I don't think your bhai can be influenced

Annie: mujhe kyun aaise lagtha hai ki pyaar karthe hai woh tumse abhi bhi, issiliye keh rahi hoon, ab tumme ek moka mila hai bhai ki madat karne ki

Geet: kya?

Annie: I think you too realise the fact that bhai is still not able to forget you, he is happy whenever he is with you

Geet can't deny that.... Annie is in a way right.... 

Annie: Geet, as someone who loved him once, don't you want to see bhai happy

Geet: why wouldn't I want to see him happy

Annie: don't you think you should make him understand that he is living in an imaginary world and he is never going to get what he wants

Geet is speechless.... But she has been trying to make him understand this only.... But Maan would always assume things the way he wants and keeps a blind eye to the truth.....

Annie: don't you think he deserves to be happy again, don't you think he should also move on just like you

Geet is confused.....
