Chapter 2 { Completed }
Part 2
Maan was standing on the rock at side but his hand was slipping away...Geet quickly reached there...The stream was big and the water speed was high...
Geet: Maan...water is rising...please give your hand...
Maan: No.. I'm scared.. I can't swim.. Please call someone for help..
Geet looked around, there was not much crowd.. but the few people who were there were just watching..
Geet: plz sir.. plz brother.. my husband is stuck there.. pls save him..
She was asking the people there for help but no one dared to go into the rising water.
She came back to the edge as no help was available.
She broke the branch from side big tree and held it towards Maan.
Geet: Maan.. catch it.. I.. will drag you..
She was overwhelmed with fear.. tears were gathering in her eyes.. but she wanted to do something to save Maan..
Maan's condition was terrible there.. Death was literally standing in front of him.. Between death and him there was only one hope in the form of Geet..
He grabbed the branch.. she was pulling on it hard from other end.. he came forward for some distance.. but the heavy flow of water, the rotten branch could not support his weight.. and the branch broke in the middle.. and he started flowing further away. ..
Geet: Maannnn
She screamed loudly.. There Maan also closed his eyes. Now he started to think that everything is over...
But then somehow his shirt got stuck and he remained stuck there...
Making another attempt to save himself, he gripped the branch tightly.. but it was not known how long the branch would last in that water.
There was a distance of twenty- twenty five feet between Geet and him...she didn't know what to do.. There was no rope nearby and no one was coming to help.. While looking here and there for help, she suddenly noticed the saree pally that she was holding tightly in her hand and thinking about something, she shove the saree away from her body while crying. She threw one side at his way and held the other corner of saree tightly in her hands..
Geet: Maan.. hold that saree tight Maan.. I will not let anything happen to you.. just be patient for a while.. have some courage.. nothing will happen to you..
The saree had reached him.. After trying for a few moments, he caught the saree in his hand and she started pulling him forcefully through the water..
The people who had been watching the thriller scene got some humanity woke up in them and they came to her help...
Two or three people dragged him out.. She quickly pressed her hands on his chest and bring out the water from his mouth.. After he regained consciousness, he saw that she was wearing only blouse and petticoat.. Some people were looking at her drenched form.. .Recovering himself he got up and took off the shirt before wrapping it on her body..
Maan: I am fine.. Thank you all for help... he thanked the people who were there and pulled him out... as He held her hand and dragged her towards his car.
Even now people were looking at her in that state and he was getting angry..
He made her sit in the car.. and he too went and sat next to her.. Still his heart was pounding.. He leaned back and closed his eyes..
She was looking at him worriedly.
Geet: Are you ok?
Maan: yes.. but why did you need to save me by taking off your saree? People were watching you like this...
He was angry but he didn't know why.
She was looking at him in shock...because if she had not done so, he would have been swept away by the stream and might have been found dead.
Geet: These clothes are bigger than bikini and enough to cover the body and at that time I thought saving your life was more important than my honor...
She looked down and said slowly...
And that sentence shook him completely...The most precious thing for a woman is her dignity...some people were watching her in wet clothes, half soaked body, she saved his life regardless of this...
Unknowingly he hugged her tightly...
Maan: Thanks..
Geet: Are you ok? You are not hurt anywhere na?
She asked worriedly coming out of his embrace and once again something stirred in his heart.
Both of them were getting normal after drinking some water etc.. But now both of them were getting cold.. They had brought clothes so there was no tension..
Maan: I am out, you change..
She changed her clothes in the car as he went out. Later, when she came out, he changed his clothes.
He asked her to get inside and started the car.
Geet: Maan, I didn't notice for so long.. Where is Samiksha?? In this all hustle bustle I don't know where she went...
Worry was evident on her face.
Maan: Don't worry she is safe..she went home in her car..
At that time there was a little anger in his eyes..
After coming out from there and coming a little further, both of them have tea and some snacks before continuing their journey to home.
Both of them were very tired by body and mind today. When they came home, they both went to sleep without eating anything.
The next day they both rested, Maan got a little injury on his leg after falling into the water.
But after two days, Samiksha came for visit... As soon as she entered the room, Geet left to the kitchen.
Samiksha: How are you Maan? Do you know how scared I was to see you drowning in the water?
She came into Maan's arms crying..
Maan: yes you were so scared.. instead of helping me out you ran away..
He said averting his gaze and she moved back a bit scared..
Samiksha: Sorry Maan.. I had no idea at that time.. I was very scared.. I was shocked and you fell in the water.. I thought if anything happened to you, the police would catch me.. and.. and..I ran away from there.
Samiksha was crying and saying...
Samiksha: sorry jaanu.. I behaved very wrong... but I love you so much.. I can't live without you.. how much I was worried about you in these two days..
She said lovingly putting her hand on his cheek.
But he smirked bitterly...
Maan: Love... your love is not for me but for yourself...instead of helping me when I was at death's doorstep you ran away leaving me in the mouth of death.. you can even swim..
On the other hand, Geet.. although she could not swim, she came into that water.. and when that attempt also failed, she saved my life without thinking about her own honour..
She Love me...and she showed it that day..
Samiksha: Don't talk like that Jaanu... I love you so much... and how much you love me too...Don't forget our love in anger...
Maan: Do we really love each other? I am not sure about it now...
No one escapes by showing his back in love... Now question arises about my love, then there is saying, "Marry the one who loves you instead of marrying the one you love" and Geet loves me. Now, I want Geet in my life...
Samiksha: Do you know what you are saying? Yes, I agree, I was wrong, but don’t take the ultimatum decision like that...I will never do like that again...
She said little surprise after hearing him.
Maan: sorry Samiksha.. I might be talking wrong.. but my decision is made.. maybe Geet is my destiny so she got married to me..
And I don't feel those feelings for you right now.. sorry.. me and you.. we can't be one..
Even if I do, I won't be able to love you as much as before..
Maan replied by turning his back to her.
Samiksha: You can't fool me like this Maan..
Now she was angry..
Maan: If I get married to you and then we keep on fighting like this because of the same reason, then we will lose more...Better to stop now than that.
He said in a tone of understanding.. and Samiksha understood.. Her Maan was no longer hers.. Her love had lost in front of Geet's love..
She sat on the sofa and started crying with her hands on her mouth.
Maan: Forgive me Samiksha.. but forget me.. surely you will get a better man than me..
He said putting his hand on her shoulder and she got back up and went into his arms..
He calmed her down in his arms...but from his touch it was clear that he was clearly feeling uncomfortable to hold her in his arms...the closeness and intimacy which she felt always in his arms, today it was missing.
She didn't want to stay there anymore...her Maan had gone far away from her due to some mistakes made by her..
After wiping her eyes, she came out and Geet was standing outside the door leaning against the wall with a plate of breakfast in her hand.. Tears had gathered in her eyes too..
She Saw Samiksha and suddenly she was startled,
Geet: sorry.. it happened because of me.. I will explain to Maan...
It was because of her that there was a fight between the two, whatever discussion was going on inside, it fell on her ears unknowingly...
Samiksha: No Geet.. It's not your fault...It's my fault...I ran away thinking of myself rather than to support him. Sirf pyar hai, yahi kahna kafi nahi hai...par hume waqt aate samay use nibhana bhi aana chahiye...jo tumne nibhaya...(when time comes we have to fulfilled it....which you fulfilled...)
I agree with Maan's decision.. Be happy..
After saying this, Samiksha left..
Geet did not know whether to laugh or cry.. Today Maan was accepting her. But not for love for her, but for Samiksha's mistake.. that's what she started to feel.
After that, the atmosphere in the house remained calm for two days.. both of them did not talk on this topic.. Finally Geet raised this topic.
Geet: I heard you talking that day.. Samiksha made a mistake but don't punish her and yourself so much.
You may be making this decision now because you feel bad for her behavior, but after a few days it will hurt you more.
Maan: I have taken the decision after thinking it through.. I am sure I will never regret it.
I wanted a girl as my life partner who would support me in every happiness and sorrow, who would stand by me in good and bad situations.
Now the question is yours.. Will you be my side for the rest of my life?, will you accept me & our relationship once again? Will you give me one chance?
He asked her but she couldn't decide.. she loved him.. but still her heart couldn’t agree that he want to accept her for saving his life..
But as time progressed... maan’s dadimaa made her realize that this was her dad's last wish too...moreover Maan was taking a step towards her on his own...where was she going to go alone leaving everything behind...seeing the situation she accepted her and Maan's relationship.
One year passed like that... both of them were fulfilling the duties of husband and wife, giving time to each other, understanding each other and starting a happy life but still there was a small regret in her heart... which she had never expressed to anyone.
Soon the rainy season started again. This year also Maan took her for a hangout.
Keeping aside the sad memory of last year, both of them were enjoying the rain falling in front of them...
The path was slippery, the stones on the bank were green with moss.. This time while being caution, both were enjoying the rain but suddenly they did not know what happened and the next moment this time Geet fell into the water...
Geet: Maannnn
She shouted loudly...
Maan got scared.. last year same happened, only this time he was on the edge and she was in the water....he couldn’t think of anything.. just saw Geet going far away from him...and he jumped into the water the next moment...he can't even swim. He forgot...
He drifted while floating in the water he and reached near her but now he started drowning...Geet grabbed his shirt and swam to the shore...
He was half conscious but her eyes were shining with happiness.. there was small smile on her face.. She supported him and woke him up.. He also regained consciousness and hugged her tightly..
Maan: You ...you..are you ok?
He asked worriedly..
She just nodded her head.. Now tears started flowing from her eyes.
Geet: Are you ok?
He also just nodded his head.
Maan: one.. one..minute.. you couldn't swim right.. then how did you save me??
Geet: After last year, if such an incident happens again in life, I should know to sweam...that’s why I learnt it.
Maan: So you acted now?
His eyes were wide with anger.
Geet just nodded her head.
Maan: Who the hell does mischief like this Geet? I would have lost my life seeing you go away from me like this..
Even now he said angrily.
Geet: sorry..
Her eyes were watering again, she was standing with her head down.
He was standing with thumb on his forehead...taking a deep breath he came back in front of her..
He stood with his forehead rested on her forehead...
Maan: Thanks for this drama. I know you love me. But I didn't know, in this year, how I got involved in you who accepted me for my own selfishness....
I would be restless when you are not around. I wanted to listen to your voice continuously; I used to always want to touch you... I used to watch the dimples on your cheeks for hours. But I thought it's not love but it seems I've become habitual of your presence around me.
I never remembered Samiksha but I thought my love was Samiksha, then how can I love you.
But I was wrong. I don't understand when I fell in love with you. All I ever felt for you was love and just a moment ago I was afraid of losing you and I understood. I can't live without you.. At that time when I was jumping in the water I could see only you and no one else.
I love you Geet. I really love you but don't joke like that again.
His words, his eyes, his touch were confessing his love...and Geet's whole body was shivering with the intensity of his voice...
That was the regret/ doubt in her mind that Maan can ever truly love her? But today she got the answer to her question.
Maan also realized his own love and she...she got her first love too...
Today she was getting drenched in the rain of his love.
