Chapter 85

                Part – 85

Maan tries hard to make the arrangements to meet his daughter….

Geet is unnecessarily burdening herself for all this…

Maan should do something for Geet’s sake… he wants Geet to be happy for this is a time when every girl gets to enjoy the most, the happiest phase of a girl’s life, with no worries, leaving all the worries with their husbands and just be happy with their kid.. haina?

That week they couldn’t get the court orders…

Geet is very much disappointed….

Maan stays with Geet the whole weekend….

Geet makes pasta for Maan…

Maan has forgotten about all that…

Maan is surprised that Geet made such delicious treat for him…

He enjoys it very much…

Maan: Geet, baby is lucky, you cook so well, you should cook often

Geet: no no, I can’t

Maan: why Geet?

Geet: I don’t want poor Nakul to suffer

Maan: how?

Geet: he’ll have to look for another job know? I know your intentions, you want a cook without pay, haina?

Maan laughs hearing that….

Dadi is happy that she has got her potha back…

Its only 2 days for Mansi’s birthday…

Geet has already booked the flight tickets…

Maan has not yet decided whether he should go or not…

He just wants Mansi to celebrate her birthday happily with her family and friends…

They are also her family and her Ritu is also there …

Yes, Maan would be missing her birthday but Mansi is too young to miss him, Maan has already sent her the birthday gift…

A tricycle… he had sent two, one for Mansi and one for Ritusa…

Maan’s wishes are always with her….

Geet had ordered a cake from a home baker at Shimla…

They would deliver it on time…

Maan knows that they won’t be welcomed at the party…

Maan doesn’t want to create problems on Mansi’s special day..

That would disturb Mansi too… she is too small to know about the problems.. whatever happens could easily terrify the child and make bad memories in her innocent mind…

But Geet wants to be there with their daughter… she has already missed her first birthday, she can’t miss this too…

She wants to make happy memories for Mansi with her family on her big day…

Maan should be there at any cost… if they have problems with Geet, she would stay out.. she is happy to see the father daughter duo together on that day…

Geet is already packing… the flight is at midnight, Geet has booked a day earlier to avoid last minute tensions…

She has to inform Maan…

Maan comes in the evening…

Geet is in the room… normally she would be with Dadima in the garden at this time…

Maan is worried that she might be sick or something and rushes to see her…

She is still packing…

Maan: Geet, what are you doing?

Geet: packing, it would be cold this time na? We need warm clothes too, so heavy packing

Maan: you must be crazy Geet, I don’t think it is a good idea

Geet: what? Maan, it’s Mansi’s birthday

Maan: Geet, you know the situation better

Geet: but Mansi wouldn’t know Maan, she’ll be waiting for her papa

Maan: Geet, you are making it harder for me

Geet: you don’t think about anything now itself, let’s first go to Shimla, then we can decide, we have enough time to think later

Maan: what?

Geet: haan, our flight is at midnight, aaj

Maan: you booked the tickets?

Geet: I thought you would be too busy worrying, and I was right

Maan: Geet, this is not a child’s game like you think, it’s more serious

Geet: why do you take everything seseriously? you make a mountain out of a mole

Maan: FYI, we are not invited

Geet: apni beti ki birthday celebration mein invitation ki wait karoge? You are too much Maan, I don’t need one, I’m going, are you coming or not?

Maan had to go for Geet’s sake… she is right… what’s wrong to go to Shimla? They can at least see Mansi from a distance and wish…

Geet has talked to Pawan .. she informed her about the cake too… he said that Tara too has ordered a cake already…

They have invited a few neighborhood children, Mansi and Ritu’s park friends…

Geet knows that only Tara would have problems if at all, the others would want her father to be there for her…

Maan and Geet fly to Shimla…

Tomorrow is Mansi’s birthday…

Maan goes to meet Mansi…

He goes and watches the house from a distance to get a glimpse of his daughter…

He doesn’t want to alert Tara, she might even call the police..

Mansi and Ritu come out with their grandmother…

They have just received their tricycles….

They are ready to ride… aan is waiting for Mansi to come out…

Luckily Tara is not there, Maan has no problems with his saas…

As the girls come to the streets, Maan comes out of his hiding and heads towards them….

Mansi recognizes him immediately, she tries to get off the cycle….

Her Nani is just behind her… She runs to help her…

Maan too rushes to her…

Mansi: papa papa

Her Nani turns back and looks at Maan… she immediately panics…

She goes and picks up Mansi in her arms…

She knows that it’s not good to let Mansi see her father… she tries to take her inside….
