Chapter 45

                   Part – 45

Next morning…

Geet has slept very late last night and so wakes up a little late…

Maan has left early though he has no urgent work…

He has to increase his workload to keep away from home as much as possible…

Its Sunday and Maan has promised Sudarshan that they will come for lunch…

He has to remind Geet about that…

Maan tells Dadi that they are going to Sudarshan’s place for lunch…

Maan thinks that Dadi will inform Geet automatically…

But Dadi thinks it’s just an information for her like always…

Maan goes out to meet someone and comes back on time…

It’s 11.30 and they should be leaving…

Maan goes and looks for Geet…

The tv is on and some music video is playing…

Maan doesn’t understand what Geet is doing…

Geet is busy on her mobile…

Seeing that sight itself angers Maan… 24*7 aaise kya baat karegi?

Maan: Geeeet

Maan switches off the tv and shouts at her…

Geet: why did you switch it off? I was listening

Maan: I don’t think so

Geet: this is not fair, babaji Sunday bhi office hota toh kitna achcha hota?

Maan: kash aaisa ho

Geet: toh office kyun nahi chale jaate? Aapka office, nahi nahi, MSK ka office, kabhi bhi khul saktha

Maan: abhi tak tum tayaar nahi hui?

Geet is puzzled…

Geet: mera toh ab sara din chuti hi hai

Maan: Geet, aaj lunch pe jaana haina?

Geet: what?

Maan: dadi ne tujhe bathaya nahi kya?

Geet: nahi toh, aaj sab lunch bahar karenge? Mujhe nahi aana

Maan: Geet, tumne suna nahi Sudarshan uncle ne humme lunch pe bhulaya tha na?

Geet was also there only know…

Geet: mujhe kuch yaad nahi hai

Maan: har waqt mobile pe raho toh aaisa hi hoga

Geet: aap ne yaad kyun nahi dilaya?

Maan is caught….

Maan: abhi patha chal gayi na? Jai, jaldi tayaar ho jao

Geet just brushes her hair, puts it up in a high ponytail and she is ready to go…

Geet: chalein?

Maan looks at her and is not satisfied…

She can look better, after all they are invited for the first time as a couple, Maan would want her to look perfect even if she is only a nakli Biwi…

Maan opens the wardrobe and pulls out a simple yet elegant pink salwar…

Geet: what’s wrong with what I am wearing?

Geet is in her usual jean and kurti…. It’s her trademark uniform….

Maan: jaldi tayaar hoke aao, mein neeche intezar karta hoon

Maan leaves without waiting for her reply…

Geet changes quickly and goes down…

As Maan starts the car, he looks at her one more time for his satisfaction…

Something is odd… .

Maan asks her to come closer… he sets her hair free and there she looks stunning…

Geet always has only one hair style, that tight high pony.. she keeps her hair very short..

She will look beautiful in long loose hair…

But still with this open hairstyle she looks lovely…

Geet doesn’t even cares to look how she looks after that on the mirror..

Geet: aur kuch?

Maan: nahi

Geet: tum log ladhkiyon ko bhi gadhi hi samjhte hai kya? Apne pasand ki paint karo, apne pasand ki lights lagao, haina?

Maan didn’t expect this…

Maan: I think every occasion has its own dress code

Geet: Woh bhi sirf hummare liye haina?

Maan: I don’t think so, Maan looks at himself and is in his usual office attire

Maan immediately removes his waist coat and tie…

Geet closes her eyes…: what are you doing?

Maan: changing my dress code

Maan looks younger and even more sexier…

Geet doesn’t turn his side at all…

Maan: mein itna bhura lag raha hoon?

Geet turns and looks at him… he is really looking draper..

But Geet toh Geet hai…

Geet: utna bhi bhura nahi lagte ho, par MSK, the boss is always the winner

Maan is back in his waist coat…

That’s better… abhi kissivka bhura nazar nahi lagega…

Geet bhi bahut comfortable hogi…

Geet: chalein?

As they pass a sweet shop…

Geet: rukho rukho

Maan: kya?

Geet shows the sweet stall…

Maan: Geet, hum lunch pe hi jaa rahe hai

Maan thinks she wants to eat…

Geet: toh, hum unke liye kuch lekhe nahi jaayenge kya ?

Maan stops…

They get in and Maan finds that everything is highly loaded with calories…

Maan ko kuch bhi pasand nahi aaya…

Geet: usme ek do

Maan: Geet, what are you doing?

Geet: chak ke do dekhna haina achcha ya nahi?

Maan: kuch bhi lelo, sab meetha hi hoga

Geet: aap jao, mein lekhe aathi hoon

Maan leaves his card with her and waits in the car ..

Geet comes back and they are at Sudarshan’s place…

Geet goes straight in while Maan waits for a formal welcome…

Maan tries to stop Geet by holding her hand…

Geet turns and looks at him surprised…

Geet: hum bin bhulaye mehmaan todi nahi

Maan: Geeeet?

Geet keeps walking and a woman comes…

Sudarshan’s daughter in law, sarla, comes to welcome them…

She is so happy to see Geet coming…

She comes and hugs Geet…

Geet: halo didi

Sarla: aao

Geet: Geet

Sarla: aao Geet

Maan too goes in…

Sarla: aayiye bhaiya, sab aapke hi intezar kar rahe hai

Everyone is at the hall… .

Geet says hi to everyone…

They didn’t expect Geet to be so friendly…

Geet goes to the kitchen and tries the freshly fried keema samosas…

She tells sarla that she likes it very much…

Maan has only had formal visits before…

Sudarshan is happy that Maan found someone who is capable of bringing him out of his cocoon…

Aunty : Geet se milke aaisa nahi lagta ki hum pehle bar kissi se mil rahe hai, haina ji?

Sudar: meine dekhte hi usko apna beti banadhiya hai, haina Geet?

Geet: ji papaji

Sudarshan is so happy…

Aunty: babaji ne sahi jodi banaya hai, ab Maan banega pura Grihasth

Rohan, Sudarshan’s son.. : babhi ho toh aaisi, warna bhai shadi ke liye razi kaise hote?

Sarla: aapne bahut sahi kaha

Everyone likes Geet… Maan is happy… no one dared to invade Maan’s self made boundary line until now.. ab sab Maan ko aasaani se apnathe aur usse masti maza bhi karte… Geet is his entry point for others too…

Sarla packs some samosas for Geet when they leave…

Geet: mein hi aapse mangnewali thi

Sarla: ye hui na baat, tum hamesha aaise hi rehna

They leave and Geet is happy to meet them…

Maan was having fun adoring her….

But as soon as they reach KM, Maan is reminded that it’s all fake… his happiness doesn’t live longer….

Maan should learn to avoid this fake happiness… it is just a pain in disguise after all…
