Chapter 12

                    Part - 12

Adi reaches the car and finds Geet already sitting inside it...

Adi looks at Geet worried and waits for her to go to Maan's car...

Geet: why are we waiting Asi sir?

Adi: Maan sir is waiting for you

Geet ignores what Adi said...

Geet: I'm tired and hungry, let's go Adi sir please

Adi doesn't know what to do...

He looks at Maan confused...

Maan stares Adi as he thinks Geet is still inside the building and he wants Adi to leave before she comes...

Adi signals Maan to look at the car...

Maan sees Geet sitting inside and understands the problem...

Maan gets off his car and goes to Adi...

He swaps keys with him and asks him to leave...

Adi leaves the scene ASAP....

Maan gets in the car but Geet is still angry...

Maaan starts to drive....

Maan: thanks Geet

Geet doesn't respond.... She is very upset....

Maan: I didn't know that you came to help us

Geet is still silent....

Maan: you helped me out with the workers strike and if you yourself are going to strike like this then who would help me Geet?

Geet: MSK ko kissi ki madat ki kya zaroorat hai?

Maan: I told you that I have mistaken

Geet is not even ready to look at him...

Maan: so you won't even talk to me?

Geet: nahi, mujhe aapse kya baat karni hai?

Maan: so you won't be working with me either?

Geet pauses and starts thinking...

She needs to work to get the work experience....

Geet: nahi

Maan: you are tired of working within a day?

Geet: I didn't say anything like that

Maan: so you accept the job?

Geet: haan

Maan: yes sir kaho Geet, you are appointed

Geet: yes Maan sir

Geet is happy that she could help Maan in the end....

Maan: what do you want for helping me out?

Geet: I'm pretty hungry, I missed lunch

Even Maan is hungry....

Maan: OK, I will take you to this Italian restaurant, you will like it

Geet: I like desi food, but Italian bhi chalega

Maan: it's your treat, so the choice is yours

Geet: koi dhabha chalein? Kuch chatpatta khane ka mann kar raha hai, I'm bored eating Nakul bhaiya's healthy diet

Maan: as you wish

Geet Google's and finds a dhabha nearby...

Maan takes her there....

This is the first time that Maan has gone to a dhabha...

Maan awaits a menu card while Geet gives the order as if she has prepared the menu....

Geet: 3 lacha paratha with extra butter, butter chicken, paneer tikka masala aur lassi

Maan wonders if he would get anything without fat....

Geet: aap kya lenge?

Maan is stunned that a single person could eat all that, that too looking at Geet you would think that she can't even finish a whole paratha...

Maan: I will have 

Maan is confused like what else could be available here....

Maan asks for the menu card....

Geet: why don't you just take a look around?

Maan: what?

Geet: see what the others are having?

Maan: kya? Why would I look at someone like that?

Now Maan gets conscious that every other person there is just looking at them which actually is the truth....

Maan: I'll have something from your order itself, I'm not hungry

Geet looks around and is reminded of the juicy hara bara kebabs the adjacent family is relishing....

Geet gets excited and orders it immediately....

Maan waits for the bearer to leave....

Maan: Geet, why would you order the kebabs? It's actually not what you wanted, it's someone else's favourite

Geet: that would be very tasty, how can we miss that?

Maan: have you come here earlier?

Geet: nahi toh, I just googled it

Maan: then how would you know that the kebabs are good?

Geet: that's why I asked you to look around

Maan: that's not good manners

Good: woh halo, this is not some fancy continental restaurant, people come here to actually have a great meal and not to boast what they had on Social media

Maan: what?

Geet: aap kuch nahi jaante, aap se baat karke koi faida nahi, just see the happiness on that uncles face while he is having those kebabs , he sure is enjoying it

Maan looks at that uncle who must be just a few years elder than him whom Geet conveniently called uncle.... Maan is only trying to guess his age and not bothered much about the food.....

Geet starts laughing....

Maan then stops staring that person and looks at Geet....

Maan: what happened? What's so funny?

Geet: where is your table manners now Mr.Maan Singh Khurana? You were looking at him eating almost for 5 mins, poor guy his food wouldn't digest at all

Maan: why?

Geet: aap ke aakhon ka nazar jo lag

gayi hai uss bechare ko

Maan: what absurd concept? I didn't look at him that way

Geet: you did stare him though, why?

Maan can't answer her....

Maan: I said I didn't, ok

Maan gets nervous....

Geet: it's ok, you didn't

Maan: I was actually thinking about your wisdom, how did you manage to convince those men? I had a really tough time arguing with them, they just don't use their brains, I lost it in the end and the situation turned into a nightmare, luckily you saved the day for us

Geet likes to be praised for her efforts for a change, her family always used to discourage her...

Geet: it's just that you need to think warring their thinking caps, you have to speak to them in the language they understand

Maan: that's true, you did a great job out there, I'm looking forward to many more surprises like this, KC really needs someone like you, I'm proud to welcome you to KC Geet

Geet is so happy....

Geet: thanks

Maan: thanks to you Geet

The food arrives and the kebabs are the winners clearly...

Maan eats that only and Geet is happy that Maan is enjoying it...

Geet: didn't I tell you? They are good, haina?

Geet actually didn't even have a taste of them... 

Maan finished them all....

Maan: yes, they are good, better than any 5 star fancy menu as you call them

Geet tries to taste the last bit on the plate when Maan realises that he had the whole plate....

Maan: you didn't have any?

Maan calls the bearer and orders another plate...

Geet: but I'm full, and there is still one more lacha paratha

Maan: but you should have it, I'll have the paratha

Maan couldn't believe that he could eat so much, the food is simple yet flavorful....

Maan was hesitant in the beginning, but seeing Geet feasting without any calorie worries Maan tok she'd his calorie consciousness and decided to have a cheat mael tonight...

Your happiness doubles when you are in good company, and so does your appetite when you are eating with a foodie like Geet....

On the way back Geet falls asleep after a heavy meal....

Maan drives carefully not to disturb his sleeping beauty as he got to admire his new wifey to his heart's content....

As they reach KM Maan carries her to the bed and rests beside her happily....
