Chapter 18

Part – 17

Maan goes to the Handa house in the evening….

Geet is eagerly waiting for him…

Mr.Handa receives Maan with a hug and they start talking about business…

Ranno: Geet, go tell them that the dinner is ready, or your papa will keep talking all night, he has got the perfect damad!

Geet: papaji, dinner is ready

They keep talking even at the dinner table…

After dinner…

Geet takes Maan to her room…

Maan is looking tensed and very uncomfortable…

Yes, it’s not KM, it’s not the OH, Maan has not even stayed at the mansion since he shifted to the OH…

This is a totally different house, and it’s really not easy for Maan to have come here and have dinner with the Handas’…

Only that much he could do…

Now to stay at someone else’s room, Maan would never invade someone’s private space any day, for that’s what he too expects from others(halo!!! It’s your wife)…

Geet reads his mind instantly…

Geet: you know we don’t have a OH as such, and I can’t offer you the guest room too, you know that my family is not that much understanding

Luckily Geet understands Maan… That’s a big relief for him….

Maan: hmm

Geet: so

They slept separately at KM na?

Maan: I will take the couch

Geet: No, you won’t fit in that, I’ll sleep there

Maan is the damadji know, how can she let him sleep in the couch?

Geet takes her pillow and settles in the couch while Maan takes the bed without thinking much…

Geet keeps watching him…

Maan falls asleep as soon as he hits the bed… or he pretends to be asleep….

Geet is surprised….

Geet: Geet, Aaj toh tumme yahi Sona hai, udhar mat dekho, kuch nahi honewala hai, ek kaam kar, babaji ka naam lekhe soja, haina?

Geet closes her eyes and tries to sleep…

But as soon as she closes her eyes she sees Maan and Maan only…

What’s wrong with her?

Ye kaise bimari hai babaji? Iska koi illaz nahi seva MSK ki, haina?

Ye toh Geet ko bhi abhi samajh mein nahi aayi

Lekhin dhere dhere Geet ye baat ko samajh jayegi ki aakhir ye Shadhi Geet ne Annie ke liye nahi, lekhin apne app ke liye hi Kiya hai…

Maan wants to leave early the next morning…

Geet is happy as long as she need not serve him bed coffee like a typical wife…

Maan: I have to leave

Geet:

Ranno toh black coffee lekhe tayaar rahi thi….

Usko kaise patha?

Mohinder informed Ranno about that, Mohinder knows only that much about his damad’s personal life….

Ranno: Geet, isse lekhe jao

But Maan is all ready to leave…

Maan just leaves without saying anything to anyone, not even Geet….

Ranno is shocked seeing him leave like that….

But Geet is cool as a cucumber….

Geet is like, Halo everyone, this is the MSK, please get used to this….

Ranno: what’s this?

Maninder: he must be in a hurry

Maninder hurriedly defends his damad, after all MSK is his choice for his daughter…

Ranno looks at Geet…. Whoever’s choice it maybe, but now it’s only about Geet, it’s her life….

Geet: don’t worry, give that to me

Geet takes that coffee from Ranno instead…

Geet takes a sip… it’s as bad as that Khurana himself, haina?

Geet: how could one drink this? Maa, mere liye achche coffee lana

Ranno: you are only worried about the coffee?

Ranno can’t believe this girl…

Geet: Haan, subhe ke coffee itne kadvi hogi toh din kaise guzrega? Babaji, ab samjhmein aagaya ki iss MSK itna bada “GEM” (Ginger eaten Monkey) kaise bante hai?

Ranno: I don’t know when this girl will take her life seriously?

Geet: wah maa, MSK ka kamaal hi kuch alag hai, ek hi din mein tum bhi unki tarah bolne lag gayi?

Raano: Tumse baat karke koi faida nahi

Geet: ye bhi unka hi dialogue hai

Ranno leaves hopelessly….

Geet stays at the Handa house till the evening and leaves for her sasural….

Maan didn’t feel comfortable staying at the Handa house…

Moreover Geet couldn’t sleep well in the couch…

Geey doesn’t want to bring home “trouble(Maan)” again…

Ranno stops worrying about Geet once she settles at KM…

Else Geet would have come back, Geet doesn’t stay anywhere more than a few minutes if she is not happy there or if she dislikes anything about that place…

Ranno is never worried much about Geet for her daughter knows how to get things done according to her will and wish like Ranno herself…

The following weekend Geet comes to the Handa house while Maan takes Annie and Riya to the farmhouse as it has been a while since they had gone there….

Riya is missing her mama a lot it looks….

Geet wanted a break too… so she came home….

At the Handa house…

Geet is watching movie in her room….

Dadi comes…

Geet: hi Dadi, aao, hummari favourite movie chal rahi hai

Geet is watching Bajrangi bhaijaan….

Dadi: hare babaji, ye ladhki kab badhi hogi?

Geet: kya baat hai Dadi?

Dadi: tum yahan akhele kya kar rahi ho Geet?

Geet: watching my Salman

Dadi: you have got your own Salman now

Geet: what?

Dadi: hare, where’s your Maan?

Geet: he has gone out

Dadi: business men are always like this, just like your papa, so he too went to that conference?

Geet: nahi Dadi, he has gone to the farmhouse

Dadi is shocked…

Dadi: without you?

Geet: it’s their farmhouse Dadi

Dadi: you are his wife, nothing is theirs now, everything is yours, including Maan, when will you understand this Geet beta?

Geet: what dadi? When did you become so regressive?

Dadi: what to do? Experiences hi aaise hai

Geet: what do you want to say?

Dadi: you should own what is yours

Geet: I don’t understand

Dadi: just stay where you should be

Geet: where?

Dadi: haven’t you heard, “Seetha’s Ayodhya is where her Rama is”

Geet: you are talking in riddles dadi

Dadi: ok, let me be direct, after marriage you stay with your husband and never leave him alone

Geet: I’m staying with him only

Dadi: 24*7

Geet: dadi, he is an adult, I’m too, we need our space

Dadi: all this is not good for marriage

Geet: dadi, just tell me what I should do

Dadi: don’t leave your husband alone, never, whenever you want to come home come with him

Geet: so I can’t come to my own home without him?

Dadi: yes

Geet: fine, next time I’ll come with my husband, now let’s enjoy watching Salman, come on

Dadi joins Geet …..

Geet had a good time at her home for the two days… she is fully recharged now….

While Geet is about to leave…

Dadi comes to see Geet….

Dadi: Geet, hope you understood what I have told you

Geet: ohh yes Dadi

Dadi: next week you go to the farmhouse with Maan, understood?

Geet: haan Dadi, you too can come along, it will be a lot of fun, pati, patni aur dadi

Geet laughs….

Dadi: iss ladhki ka kuch nahi hoga

Geet: I was just joking dadi
