Chapter 16

               Part – 15

Geet keeps staring him….

Maan: what’s it Geet? Jaldi bathao, I’m getting late

Geet likes the way he takes care of her and is always ready to be there for her whenever she needs him…

But she is not satisfied, she wants him to spend more time with her…

Geet: dabha chalein?

Maan: I have got to go Geet, phir kabhi chalthe haina?

Geet: kahin bahar jaane ka mann kar raha hai, you know this warden won’t let me out at all, every other girl goes out and eats

Maan: I’ll get you something if you want

Geet: ek mahine ho gayi hai iss gate ke bahar jaake, it’s really frustrating, you know what I mean?

Maan feels sorry for her… he falls prey for her puppy face…

Maan: ok

Geet jumps in joy…: I’ll be back in a minute, don’t go

Geet runs to change…

Maan: dhere chalo, I won’t go anywhere

They go to Happy Singh dabha again… it’s Geet’s favourite haina….

Happy Singh welcomes Maan and this time he lets them sit in one of the private huts which is for family…

He has approved of their relationship…

Maan needed that space for he is embarrassed to be with Geet in the open, with all those hawk eyes watching them only…

Happy Singh gets their signature dish the murgh malai tikka specially made for Maan…

Maan thinks that it’s funny that he gets special attention not b’coz he is the MSK this time but he is here with Geet Handa….

Its good to be someone’s guest at times and not being the host always…

Maan actually enjoys the attention contrary to what he thought…

It’s one of those times when he is able to forget his worries temporarily…

There is no harm in letting out your stocked up pressure like this once in a while…

Geet orders lacha paratha and extra spicy gravy for herself… she is a foodie who forgets the world when she is eating… she doesn’t notice Maan totally adoring her relish the food the whole time…

Geet pays the bills which is another surprise for Maan, this girl never stops surprising him, some of them are good ones too like this one…

Geet: this is my treat for the laptop

Maan: I like that

Maan drops her off and returns back…

All the way back to Delhi his mind is fully occupied with Geet’s thoughts…

For the next few days he couldn’t get Geet out of his mind however hard he tried…

Maan decides that it’s enough and he should not be encouraging it anymore…

Maan stops visiting Chandigarh for almost a month….

Dadi senses that something is wrong…

Dadi makes a plan… that weekend, it’s a three days holiday, Geet was saying that this Friday too is a holiday for them, dadi sends the driver to pick up Geet…

Dadi cleverly used Adi to get Maan’s signature and she sent a permission letter signed by Maan to the warden….

The driver goes to the hostel and gives the letter to the warden…

The warden sees the letter and immediately calls Maan

Warden: Hello Mr khurana

Maan immediately panics hearing from the warden’s voice. .

Iss bar uss ladhki ne kya naya tamasha kiya hoga?

Ye Maan ne kudh apne pairon pe khulhari mari hai iss ladki ki zamendari apne upar lekhe…

Maan: Yes ma’am

Warden: What is this?

Maan is confused….

Maan: What ma’am?

Warden: how do you expect me to send Geet with a stranger? I don’t trust her at all, it might be one of her tricks to fool us

Maan is caught unaware of what is happening….

Maan thinks that maybe Geet wants to go out with some new friend…. Boyfriend hoga kya? Nahi, aaise nahi hoga…

Maan: Stranger?

Warden: Yes you have sent the driver to pick up Geet

Maan now understands that it should have been the job of his one and only Dadima…. Maan has to save his family honor, dadi aur Geet ki… if he says that he doesn’t have any idea of what’s going on, then it would put a question mark on already damaged reputation of Geet….

Maan: But ma’am, he's like family, you can send Geet with him without any doubts

Warden: I am sending Geet this time for she too has to be with family like other girls, but next time I won’t let her go with anyone else except you, understood?

Maan: Yes ma’am, thank you

Moreover, Warden didn’t want Maan to come and teach her another lesson, so she thought it’s better to let Geet go with the driver….

Maan has to get ready for the unexpected guest at KM…

Geet is excited to visit Maan’s place….

Dadima has prepared a lavish lunch for Geet….

Dadi: Welcome home Geet

Geet looks at dadi and is confused….

Dadi: I am Maan’s Dadi, I know he wouldn’t have told you about me

Geet: I know, I know you dadima

Dadi: Geet, you first go and refresh, we will talk later, Nakul, ma’am ko out house le ke jao

Geet goes to the outhouse and gets ready, then she comes down to have lunch with Dadi..

Dadi is happy to see Geet…

Dadi: Geet you look more beautiful than in the photo

Geet: Thank you dadima

Dadi: Maan is so lucky to have got you

Geet just smiles…..

Geet likes Dadi very much….

After lunch Geet takes Dadi for a stroll in the garden in her wheelchair….

Dadi: Geet, hwz your studies going?

Geet: Very well Dadima

Dadi: I like how you have owned me as your Dadi iinstantly

Geet: I haven’t seen my Dadi, I have known only my darji, so you are just like my Dadi

Dadi: I am very happy to welcome you ask my bahu, so do you like your home?

Geet: It’s very beautiful

Dadi: Geet do you like this dadi?

Geet: Huh I like you Dadima

Dadi: Do you like Maan?

Geet: Very much

Geet gives the answer without even thinking for a second…

Dadi is impressed with the quick answer she got….

As Maan has got the news of Geets arrival he comes very late that night….

Geet has already gone to sleep to his delight…
