Hey Guys!
Once Upon A Time...
Chapter 6
Leap To Next Day:
Geet got out of bed whining and mumbling to herself. She hated to wake up early. She literally dragged herself out of bed. She got ready wearing a knee-length pink, short-sleeved summer dress, with earrings and bracelets. She tied her hair with lots of hairpins and clips. It was half tied, and was in beautiful curls and her bangs were straightened. She got her black purse and bag which she just finished packing. The bag was extremely heavy, but the bag had wheels also so she wheeled the bag because she couldn't lift it. the bag had some clothes, 2 pairs of extra sandals, hair starightener, and hair accessories, 2 different purses, a few nail polishes, 5 packs of her favourite gum and other things that were important to her. She did her morning puja. She was putting her heels on. She didn't wear heels often but felt like wearing them. They were pink, like her dress so she wore them. They had ribbons criss-crossed around her ankles. Maan reached her house and honked twice. Geet jerked. She stood up carefully getting used to the heels and steadily walked, wheeling her bag to Maan's car. Maan was wearing a blue shirt with black tie and black waistcoat. Maan got out and put her bag in the trunk. They sat in and Maan started the car. They sat in the car in silence. Maan decided to talk.
"What the hell did you put in your bag? We're only going for three days!" he asked Geet. Her bag was way heavier than his.
"None of your business." said Geet.
"Good! I don't care to know anyways!" he said getting irritated by her attitude already. 'How am I gonna stay with her for three whole days??' thought Maan in his head. While he was thinking this, a small kid came in front of his car, but he didn't notice. Geet all of a sudden took hold of the steering wheel and turned it around. Maan hit the brakes and saw the kid. Geet hands were on Maan's hands, who's hands were around the steering wheel. Geet let go immediately, and ran outside to the 1 or 2 year old crying kid who looked lost. Maan followed her, thinking what is she upto now. Geet went and picked the kid up.
"Kya hua? Mama nahi mil rahi?" asked Geet in a sweet concerned voice. The kid continued crying. Maan looked at the kid and Geet. He got lost looking at Geet. She was helping this kid she didn't even know. Maan went over to the two, and stood beside Geet who was carrying the kid. The kid stopped crying and looked at Maan and Geet.
"Mama? Papa?" said the kid referring to Maan and Geet. Geet's eyes widened in shock as she blew a bubble. She turned to look at Maan who was just as shocked.
"Nahi! Main tumhari mama nahi hoon! Aur yeh definitely aapke papa nahi hain! Aapke mama papa kahan hain?" asked Geet once again. The kid started crying again. Maan gave Geet a look and took the kid from Geet.
"Beta, tumhare parents kaha hain" asked Maan in a soft voice. Geet looked at Maan wierdly. She had never heard him talk so sweetly. He'd make a good dad. The kid stopped crying and pointed at Geet saying 'Mama' and then at Maan saying 'Papa'. Maan grinned at the thought and then made a serious face realizing what he was thinking. Geet took the kid from Maan. There arms brushed raising both there heart rates.
"Aapka naam kya hain?" she asked the little boy sweetly.
"Samwat" said the little boy, meaning to say Samrat, but just couldn't pronounce it. Geet smiled at the way he said his named.
"Okay Samrat-" Geet started but didn't get to finish. The boys parents came.
"Thanks so much for taking care of our son! Hum kitne pareshan ho gaye the!" said the boys mom. Geet smiled.
"No problem!" said Geet. Maan and Geet went to the car.
"Aap mujhe stupid kehte hain!? Aapko toh ghaari bhi chalani nahi aati!" she said.
"Aur tumhe bacho se baat nahi karna aata. Bechara rone laga tumhari awaaz sun kar." he said making fun of her. Geet gaped at him.
"Aapko toh kisi se bhi baat nahi karni aati!" she said angrily. Now it was Maan's turn to get furious.
"Acha! Aur tum? Kabhi sunna hain apne boss se kaise baat karti ho! Woh toh main bahut acha hoon isiliye tumhe tolerate kar raha hoon!" he said praising himself. Geet gave him a look and rolled her eyes. She decided not to reply. They reached the airport. Maan opened the trunk and took out his suitcase. Geet was about to lift hers out.
"Rehne do...Main kar deta hoon." said Maan reaching for it.
"No! I can do it myself." she said and reached for it.
"Bahut heavy hain. You won't be able to lift it." he said trying to not get mad.
"Kaha na, main khud kar sakti hoon!" she said a bit irritated. She bent forward to pick it up. It wouldn't budge. Maan smirked. She used all her force. It moved a little bit. After a while Maan spoke up.
"Move!" he said. She embarassedly moved, and Maan lifted her bag out of the trunk. Geet couldn't help but stare at the way his muscles flexed when he lifted it. her eyes widened. He was so strong! She wheeled it to the airport.
They boarded their flight. Each row had two seats next to window, three in the middle and then two at the other window. Maan was in the middle aisle, while Geet was beside the window with some freakish guy. There were few minutes left for take off. The guy sitting beside Geet was glancing at her every now and then. Geet just ignored him, while Maan noticed and looked at him angrily. The guy was a complete pervert to Maan. Maan could tell by the way the guy was looking at Geet. Geet was now getting uncomfortable. The guy leaned to Geet pretending that he wants to look out the window. Geet backed up against her seat completely. She was scared. The guy was leaning more now, looking out the window. Maan was getting furious. The man's weight was shifting on Geet. Geet made use of her high heels. She stepped in the guy's foot deliberately. She sqaushed his toes. He instantly moved onto his seat.
"Oww!" said the man in pain.
"I'm sorry!" said Geet fakely. Maan who noticed it smiled a bit to himself. Geet was definitely one in a billion, or trillion. Well, actually she was the only one piece like that. Maan went to an air-hostess and got his seat switched with the other guy. When Maan went to sit, he saw Geet peacefully sleeping.
"Probably missed out on her average 50 hours of sleep" he thought to himself, and smiled looking at her. Then, the pilot made the announcement.
"Flight taking off! Please put on your seatbelts!" said the voice in the speaker, while the seatbelt sign flashed. He noticed Geet's belt wasn't on. He leaned over her while finding her belt. Geet suddenly woke up and saw Maan's face inches away. He didn't see her because his eyes were downwards looking for the belt.
"I'll do it." she said. Maan realised she woke up. And then, realised how close they were. He quickly moved back and put his own seatbelt on.
"How did you get here?" asked Geet while they waited for the plane to start moving.
"I switched seats with the person next to you." he said acting unknown.
"Oh..." said Geet. The plane started moving, and Geet shut her eyes leaning back, and clutched her seat tightly. Maan looked at her.
"Kya hua?" he asked.
"Kuch nahi...Actually I hate take off and landing! It's soooooo scary!" she said without changing her position or opening her eyes. The plane instantly took off. Geet gasped and had a really scared expression on her face. Maan held her hand to make her feel better. As soon as she felt Maan hold her hand, something in her fluttered. She held on to his hand tightly, not wanting to ever let go. After a while it got less scary. She made the mistake to look out the window. She quickly turned around and her eyes widened thinking what she just saw. It was a scary sight. She squeezed Maan's hand tightly.
"Uhhh...I don't feel okay..." she said slowly.
"Kya hua??" he asked concerned.
"I don't know..." she said blankly. She was just feeling wierd and dizzy.
"Sirrr...my head is spinning." she said feeling extremely wierd.
"Geet? Tum thik toh ho?" he asked and then instantly started to pat her back. As soon as Maan touched her back, Geet felt some new sensation. Her heartbeats quickened. And she forgot how ill she was feeling. The plane was done with the take off, and Geet was okay. the seatbelt sign went off.
"I'm fine now...Thanks." she said.
"Are you sure Geet?" he asked worried.
"Ya." she said, and slowly let go of his hand. She leaned back on to her seat and breathed in and out a few times. Maan sat at his seat doing nothing while Geet strated to put some movie on. There were TVs at the back of each seat. She put on Salman Khan's Wanted. (For you Saz!) She put on the head phones. Maan had nothing else to do so he just stared at Geet. Maan had watched this movie once, while this was Geet's 17th time. Maan noticed she liked the action scenes the most. When the movie was finished Geet decided to sleep. She leaned onto the window trying to sleep. It was uncomfortable so she put her head back onto her seat. She fell asleep. Maan noticed that her head kept rolling off to one side or the other. Maan lifted her head a bit and put it on his shoulder. Geet snuggled closer and clutched onto Maan's arm. Maan looked at her snuggle closer, and a smile came on his face.
An hour passed. Geet finally woke up and quickly let go of Maan feeling embarassed.
"Umm...Sorry." said Geet.
"Hmm..." replied Maan who was half sleeping with his eyes closed leaning on to the back of his seat. After a while Maan's head rolled off to the side and fell on Geet's shoulder. His nose was touching her shoulder. Geet turned to look at Maan, who was peacefully sleeping. She decided not to disturb him and let him sleep. She was so bored that she dozed off yet again. After a while a air-hostess came to them.
"Maam? Maam!" said the air-hostess awaking Geet. Geet woke up instantly.
"Will you please put the shutter of your window down?" asked the air-hostess politely.
"Sure..." said Geet. The air-hostess left and Geet felt something on her neck. She looked down to see Maan's head buried in her neck after rolling from her shoulder. Geet gasped.
"Maan sir..." she said trying to wake him up.
"Hmm...kya hua?" he asked still in his sleep not noticing his position. Geet's eyes widened as his lips brushed against her neck when he spoke. Then, she saw the air-hostess coming with the drinks cart.
"Umm...Maan sir, woh...The air-hostess is coming with the drinks. Wake up." said Geet. Maan woke up and realised his position. He got up as fast as he could. And, before he could say anything the air-hostess came to them and spoke up.
"Would you like anything sir?" she asked.
"Water." said Maan. She gave him some water.
"Umm...Coke." said Geet. The air-hostess poured in some coke for Geet. Geet smiled and took it. The air-hostess proceeded to the next aisle. They were silent the rest of the flight. Then, it was time for the landing. Geet prayed with her eyes closed the whole time, while Maan just looked at her and smiled at her childishness. the flight was over. Maan got there bags and they got out of the plane. They had reached Shimla. They were inside the airport. I wasn't cold inside. They were walking. Geet was walking slowly cause of her heels.
"Can you walk any slower!?" asked Maan sarcastically. Geet frowned.
"Ya...Want me to!" she retorted angrily.
"Shut up! And walk faster!" he yelled. She speeded up and nearly slipped, but Maan steadied her by her wrist. Geet blinked and looked into Maan's eyes as he steadied her to make her stand straight.
"Do you not know how to walk! Always stumbling!" he said, and started walking again. Geet pouted and walked faster. She stumbled again because of her heel. Maan sensed that Geet was falling and turned around to catch her by her waist, before she could fall. Geet's one arm was around Maan's neck, and other was just hanging. Maan's one hand was around her waist, and other was on her back. Geet opened her eyes and saw Maan staring at her intensely. Maan pulled her up and let go of her. Geet held on to her lugagge. Maan looked at her angrily.
"Choti bachi ho!? Kya karu!? Tumhara haath pakad kar, tumhe chalna sikhau?!" he asked angrily. Geet frowned. She tried walking.
"Oww!!!" she yelled in pain.
"Kya hua?" asked Maan instantly.
"My ankle!" she said.
