Chapter 83

               Part – 83

Maan looks at Geet in astonishment….

This girl is something different, she has the answer for all his problems….

Maan thought that Babaji had sent him as Geet’s savior that time and so he helped her, he thought that she needed him the most….

What a fool he was?

Babaji has sent her to his aid, to pull him out of his miseries, as his savior…

What would he do without her?

Maan is grateful for babaji to have sent Geet in his life…

Geet: Maaan, Maaaan

Geet is worried that he has gone back to the past…

Geet thinks that her mission has failed….

But Geet has won this time…

Maan comes out of his thoughts….

Maan: you should not stay here for long, it’s suffocating in here, come let’s go back

Geet: Maan, hum kahin bahar jaathe na?

Geet tries to distract him as she believes that he is still thinking about Sam’s destiny…

Maan: itne raat ko?

Geet: din mein aap ke paas waqr kahan hai?

That’s also true, with the meetings with the lawyer, Maan is finding it hard to get time to spend with Geet…

Maan takes her for a long drive….

Geet wanted this ride for Maan to clear his mind and enjoy a bit of fresh air….

When they are on the road all alone with no other vehicles…

Geet: gadhi rokho, gadhi rokho

Maan gets tensed that something is wrong with Geet…

He shouldn’t have come this far from the city…

Don’t know if they could get help….

Maan stops…

Maan: kya hua Geet? Bathao, jaldhi

Geet: mujhe kya ho sakta jab aap mere saath ho, koi bhi problem aap ko dekhte hi bhaag jayega, ye sochke ke hum iss gunda ko par karke Geet tak nahi pohunch sakte

Maan smiles…

Maan: tumme itne barosa hai mujhpe?

Maan ko toh ab kudh pe barosa nahi hai… he has lost faith in himself…

Geet: haan, if not for you, I would still be on the run, not knowing what to do all alone in this world

Maan just smiles…

Geet: it’s not a joke, I’m serious, now I need not worry about myself, the moment you took my hand, I have decided to go along with you wherever you take me, because I’m happy when you’re with me

Maan: you have helped me rediscover myself Geet, I owe this version of me to you

Geet: you know something?

Maan eagerly listens…

Geet: I’ ve skipped dinner because of you, now we are both hungry

Geet points to the baby…

Maan: I never asked you to stay hungry, why do you do this Geet? This is what I don’t like about you, you should know that you have more responsibilities now, it’s not just about you anymore, you should think about us too

Geet: I forgot about us as I was thinking about you, so, it’s not our fault, haina baby?

Maan’s anger vanishes…

Geet: Maan, I’m starving

Maan: check the dashboard Geet, shayad kuch mile

Geet gets a chocolate bar from it….

Geet: I didn’t know you like chocolate

Maan: luckily I keep them handy for Mansi

Geet: sorry Mansi dear, mama is very hungry, warna aapka chocolate nahi khaathi, aur ye mere liye nahi, aapka chotu ke liye hai, papa aapko isse badiya chocolate denge, haina Maan?

Maan is amused seeing her apologizing to Mansi even when she is not there…

Maan: ye kya kar rahi ho tum? Mansi ko kaise patha hoga ki tumne uska chocolate khaya?

Geet: usko patha nahi toh kya? Mujhe toh patha haina ki ye uska hai

Maan: ab kush?

Geet: baby ka pet bhar gaya, mera kya?

Maan: what?

Geet: Maan, this is just a dessert, khana kab khilaooge?

Maan smiles looking at her nautanki….

She always makes him forget his worries somehow….

Maan: I don’t think you would get something at this time and at this place

Geet looks into her mobile…

There is a pizza point just a few kilometers away from there….

Geet: Maan jaldhi karo, humme jaana hai

Maan is about to take a U-turn….

Geet: Maan, seedha chalo

Maan: par humme ghar jaana haina?

Geet: nahi, aage pizza point hai, drive fast

Maan: that must nearly 20 kms from here

Geet: so what?

Maan: Geet, hum kab wahan jaaye aur kab humme pizza milega?

Geet: think pizza, you get it within 30 minutes

Maan: but how?

Geet: I’ve ordered already, 15 mins mein hum 18 kms cross karenge

Geet looks at the speedometer…

Geet: Maan, drive faster, jaise aap ne bike ride kiya

Maan: then you were not pregnant

Geet: hare babaji? Ye kya musibat hai? Pregnant ho toh log kush hothe, par ye toh pareshaan hothe hai

Maan increases the speed, it’s a six track and there is not much traffic other than the trucks that are in their lane…

Geet keeps looking at the opposite track…

Geet: Maan, dhere chalo na

Maan is confused… ab kya hai?

Geet: delivery guy is near, if you go in this speed he’ll miss us

Geet gets a call….

Geet: wahi rukho, hum aathe hai, Maan woh aagaya

Geet spots him on the opp. Track…

Maan pulls over the car, parks it safely and goes to get the delivery…

He had to tip the poor guy heavily for he had to take another two kms to take the U-turn….

Maan: Geet, this is too risky, I’m not happy with this

Geet: pizza ke liye itna risk toh le sakte hai Maan, see, it’s super hot, now don’t disturb me, enjoy your garlic bread

Maan: mere liye garlic bread?

Geet: without cheese, jaise aapki diet

Maan: but I love pizza

Maan tries to take a slice..

Geet turns and stares him…

Geet: Geet doesn’t share her pizza

Maan stops…

Geet: iss bar khalo, par agle bar nahi milega

Maan: no no, I’m not touching it

Geet: it’s ok, have a slice

Maan: I can’t risk like this another time

Geet is enjoying her pizza…

Maan has to learn to enjoy life like her….

Maan then couldn’t resist and he takes a slice….

It feels like heaven, pizza never tasted so good, the pipping hot pizza with the melted cheese crust in the cold night, with his Mishty’s company, what more he could ask for?

Geet turns to look at Maan only after finishing the pizza…

Pehle pizza phir pathi…

Geet is happy… no matter what, a pizza will always make her happy….
