The Bitter Truth ff - Page 9

Loved the dosti

Upon reaching the hospital Prem made his way to the ICU,where geet would be.He could not understand why this was happening to him?Why Maan?Geet made life so much more better,she was the medicine to his heart.

"Woh appne phone kiya tha koi Geet Handa ke mutaliq?"

"haan,magar apne ane main bohot deir kerdi.Im sorry she is no longer.She kept on mummering a childs name."jannat."..After that she was gone.The accident was horrible,there was a car comming her way and she pused people to the side and bechari..The car hit her with so much force that she went flying in the air and landed in bottles of gasoline.The botlles were open so they spilled,just near by a little shop owner was showing the kids some tricks with fire.He dropped it by accident,and the gasoline reacted.Some people were able to help Geet escape,but she was badly hurt.Just a few minutes later she was brought here,but she was dying.I am so sorry,she seemed like an amazing person.You can go see her,if you want we can help arrange for a funeral."

Aap ko lagta hai ke hum geet ke kuch nai hain!Woh bahar insaan jisko apne phone kiya tha.Woh uska hone wala pati hai!Main,main uski rukhsati kerwane wala tha!Meri best friend meri behn!Aur aap kehti hain ke aap unka funeral arrange kerain gi!Hum maar gayen hain!Nai yeh nai ho sakhta woh nai maar sakhti.

"Prem,main maar jaoon ga uske baghair.Woh mujhe chor gayi!Woh...woh larki jisne mere dil ko eik pyar ke daage se siya tha,aaj woh hi nai rahi!Yeh dil aaj rangoon main koo gaya hai...Uske pyar ke rangoon main!Please batao woh mazaq ker rahi thii." Maan said while holding the door for support.

"Hum hain is pal yahan"

Nah--ii Maan ase maath bolo,woh idher hi hai!Jahan pai bhi hai.Woh hameri baare main zaroor sooch rahi hogi!Woh nai ja sakhti choor ke humain!Are uski toh abhi dolhi sajni thi!Uski toh abhi bohot khawaishain thi.Nai baghwan humain Geet se zaroor milwaye ga!Usne toh abhi meri raj kumari doond ni hai!"Prem replied,while making his way over to Maan and helping him stand.

"Jaane ho kal kahan"

"Chalo, humne uske funeral ki tayari kerni hai Ma-an.Dadi ko bhi bata na hai"

"haan ch-alo"

Upon reaching the house,Prem slowly stopped the car,gazing at the house he let his mind fill with memories of geet.As he turned his head to gaze at Maan,he saw his friend clutching Geet's picture in his hand.Prem shook Maan twice before finally getting his attention.As they were entering the house,they felt a strong gust of wind blow.

"Hum miley na miley, Hum rahey na rahey"

Every step they took,they heard her laughter.The way she would shy away from her feelings,the twinkle in her eyes when she would talk about kids.Most importantly they rememmbered her love.

"Rahegi sadaa yahan, Pyar ki ye dastan"

"Maan,Prem tum ho.Jao main tum logon se nai baath ker rahi"The both looked up at the staircase where they saw geet sitting with a little child.She looked hurt,as she had a cut on her head.

"Pyar khota nahin, Pyar sota nahin"

Geet stood there in great relief.They had finally returned but why were they not disturbing her?As she slowly left them to gather their thoughts she heard two strong hands grab her."acha ab ayi hai yaad meri" geet thought.She gently held the baby tighter and looked up at them.

"Tum loog kahan the."

"Geet tumne waade toor diya na?"

"tumne mere se haq chein liya eik bhai hone ka"

"STOPPPPPPP,yeh kiya keh rahe ho!"

"Geet tumne zindagi bhar ka saath nibana tha na?"

Slowly Maan and Prem started to realize,how real she felt.Although she was gone for good,they felt as if she was right here.This was going to be hard,moving on seemed like a dream,but it was not like Maan wanted to move on.Geet was his everything,the reason for his exsistenace.Without her,everything seemed empty.

Beta tum dono kahan the!Geet itni perashaan thi!Woh bechari khud hospital main admit thi!Uska accident hota hota bacha hai"Dadi said

"Magar Dadi geet to abh hamere saath nai!" prem said falling down.

"Maa,uski death hogaya hai.Humein doctor ne phone kiya tha,ke Geet handa maar rahi hai.Jab hum poonche toh woh jaa chuki thi" Maan said staring at geet as if she was a ghost.

"tum loog hosh main ho!Yeh tumhare paas wohi karhi hai!Aur yeh bachi uske haath main hai,uski maa ki death hgayi hai!Unho ne hi geet aur ise baby ko bachaya tha!"

"Magar,doctor ne toh ID dikkhayi thi Geet ki."Maan said with a new found hope.

"Oh beta lagta hai aap apna purse bhool gayen accident ki jaga pe" Dadi said looking at Geet.

"Ohhh haan"Geet said while replaying the events that took place a few hours ago.

At chandni chok,few hours ago.

"oho aunty apki yeh cheezein ghir gayen let me help you.Are yeh apka bag hai ya mera!Bukul same hai" geet said to the young lady..

"oh beta eik second aap jannat ko pakro gi"Ms.Mehra a single mother of this beautiful angle said.

"Haan ji"Geet said while gently giving Jannat an inviting smile.

"Betaaaa!" The mother yelled,while watching the car come her way.

Geet turned around just to be pushed away by the lady,and with her eyes she watched a brave lady burning to death.Not being able to take it,geet fainted.A few hours later geet woke up in the hospital,there was a faint voice calling out "Jannat."As geet looked around,the lady in the next bed was badly burned,and she was breathing heavily.As moments passed she realized there was a baby next to her and the lady.Oh no this was the baby girl she had held before she saw that lady burn.That's when geet realized it was the same person.Geet raced to the lady's side and held her hand."Beta,main--meri jannat ko a--pne paas rakhna,iska koi aur nahi hai.Ja--anaa-t ko rakh lo."As her words fainted in to small wimpers,Geet gently laid her hand on the lady,and promised to treat jannat like her own daughter.The doctor adviced her to go home and rest,taking the baby with her she took the cab to Maan's house.

Present

Prem looked at geet with wide eyes,she was really here.It was not a dream,as he thought it was.Prem quickly wiped his tears and looked at Maan,who was furious.Oh oh!Prem knew that geet had it coming,so he gently walked to geet and hugged her slowly."Geet tum gayi aaj kaam se.Pata hai ushe lady ne kaha ke tum maar gayi!Maan bilkul toot gaya tha!"With having said that,Prem led dadi away explaining to her what had happened.

"Maan" Geet said realizing Maan had thought she was dead.

"Pyar dhalta nahin, Haan badalta nahin"

"GEET TUMHE KOI ANDAZA HAI KE MERE DIL PAI KIYA BEETH RAHI THI"Maan shouted,even though somewhere in his heart he was really happy.

"Aram se Maan,Jannat soo rahi hai!"

Chup!Bilkul chup!Mere se baath na karo.Jab tumhe maine kaha tha ke udher nai jana.TOh kyon gayi?Haan! Baato!Dimag ko use bhi karle lya karo geet." Maan spat out.

"Acha na,maine cheezain leni thi!" Geet tried to explain to him.

"Toh?Main dela deta!Acha anyways maine nai baath kerni.Mer nazron se haath jao abhi!"Maan said without thinking.

"Main maar jati to acha tha!Atleast tab to meri kadar kerte aap!"Geet said while running away with tears.

"Yeh kiya keh gayi!Geet tum kab samjho gi main tumse kitna pyar kerta hoon."Maan silently twisted his head towards the slittle crib laid out for jannat.

"Aare,yeh toh bilkul geet ki tarah hai,bechari!Shaid isliye isko le ayi!Uff maine yeh nai soocha keh geet ko kitni kushi hogi jannat ke ane ki!Jaanat aap ab Geet aur Maan ki jannat ho.Apko apki mama hamesha protrct kerain gi!Deokho na unho ne apko hamere paas behj diya.Jannat mere pyar ki kasam!Main tumhe apni beti ki tarah treat karoon ga!Aaj se tum Jaanat Khurana ho!" Maan said while playing with the childs hand.

===================================================================================

Prem on the other hand was also angry,and geet had tried reasoning with him as well but he did not listen.Maan slowly came looking for geet,and when he saw prem he sat down beside him.He looked at prem who was playing darts,more like hitting the wall with anger.Anyway he called them playing darts,so maan left it laughing at his joke.

"geet ko dekha hai"

"Nai,larai hui hai!Meri waja se woh ro rahi thi!Abhi maa ki call ayi thi woh ghar poonch gayi hai,aur roo rahi hai."

"Yaar yeh toh sahi nai kiya,maine bhi bohot ushe pai ghusa kiya"

"Oh oh" Both of them said at once.

===================================================================================

"yaar prem larki ko kaise mana the hain"

"Uncle agar yeh mamooli larki ko baath hoti toh main bata deta!Yeh geet World ka 8 ajuba(wonder) hai!Iska kuch nai patha"

"Haan yeh toh hai,last time mere se galti hui thi toh usne baath kerna chor de thi!"

"Pehle mama se jhoote pir baba se jhoote,pir geet se khoote,haye main toh gaya.Maan main idher re loon aaj.

"Prem hum abhi ghar ja rahen hain!Asa kertain hain Dadi ke saath jaatein hain.Pir woh zaroor baath kere gi"

"Tu toh bara woh nikla"

"Kiya"

Yaar bara einstein nikla!"

"Main toh magar don hoon"

"Konsa amitab wala ya srk wala"

"Srk wala"

"Acha toh tum kiya kaho ge.Maan ko toh 11 mulkoon ki police doond rahi hai magar eik baath hai!Geet ko mana na mushkil nai na mumkin hai."

"Tumain mazaq soojh raha hai!Sahi kehti hai geet khote ki dum."

"maan singh khuarana ne swear kerna sikh liya!"

Aab chalien joker"

Joker nai,rizwan khan!"

"hain?"

"tumne My name is khan nai dekhi!"

"Nai magar agar tumhe chup nai hoge toh main tumhe taare dekhaoon ga!"

"acha,Yalgar ho!"

"Hain"

"mission geet handa"

"Mujhe toh yeh mission afghanistan lag raha hai!"

"Acha tum ghari main behto main dadi ko leh ker ata hoon.Maan ziada maath sochna!"

"acha"

===================================================================================

Geet was leaving for her house,but as she saw jannat she stopped to pick her up in her hands.Slowly grabbing a blanket to cover her,she walked out the door with tears.

"Geet ,kiya hua?"Mrs kapoor questioned

Geet looked at aunty,and spilled the beans.She told her everything that happen,and how maan and prem were rude to her.Aunty promised to help her teach them a lesson.WIth that geet went to bed,not being able to sleep she laid jannat beside her.Wow she was beautiful,and she slept a lot too!Finally deciding to dig through some of the stuff dadi had got nakul to bring for jannat,she took out a light blue dress.While changing jannat's clothes she heard voices coming from the kitchen."Oh Dumb and dumber are here!As if I care"she said to jannat who was looking at her.

"Jannat aap meri beti ho,acha?"In response Jannat cooed.

"meri geet?" she heard maan say.

Geet quickly got up knowing Maan always knocked before coming in."Dusht kahen ke,main toh nai bool rahi."With that she locked her door,here a groan of frustration from outside.She sloowly went to her stereo System and turned the music up.

Har Ghadi Badal Raha Hai Roop Zindagi
Chaav Hai Kahhi Hai Dhoop Zidnagi
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Ghadi Badal Raha Hai Roop Zindagi
Chaav Hai Kahhi Hai Dhoop Zidnagi
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho

Chaahe Jo Tumhe Poore Dil Se
Milta Hai Woh Mushkil Se
Aisa Jo Koi Kahin Hai
Bas Vahi Sabse Hasin Hai
Us Haath Ko Tum Thaam Lo
Woh Meherbaan Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho

Palko Ke Leke Saaye
Paas Koi Jo Aaye
Takh Sambhalo Paagal Dil Ko
Dil Dhadke Hi Jaaye
Par Sochlo Is Pal Hai Jo
Woh Dastan Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho

As the song played,geet looked at jannat.A girl who would never get to know her mother.A girl whose mom gave away everything for happiness.Since she knew what it was like to be alone,at least she had a glimpse of loneliness.As her eyes filled with tears,she remembered her mother and the way she loved her.Geet was pulled out of her thoughts as she felt an arm on her shoulder.

"Geet" Maan said.

"Jannat aap maan ko kaho ke main nai baath ker rahi"

"Jannat aap Geet se pucho kiya kere gi agar main baath karoon ga"

Jannat inse kaho main idher se itna door chali jaon gi ke yaad bhi kerna pyeh toh nai aaongi.

Maan pulled geet up in a forceful way,his hands dug in to her arms hurting her.Yet he did not let go,he pulled her towards him and locked her in to an iron grip.As geet looked away,he forced her eyes to focus on him.Yet she did not budge,so hecornered her into a wall and slowly brought his lips close to hers.Instead of her surrender he got tears and a forceful push.he watched her eyes feel up with tears.Yet she hid them,her posture made it clear she was uncomfortable.Letting her go Maan watched geet look at him with angust in her hazel eyes.

"Get out"

"geet"

"get out,werna this ring will be in your hands in two minutes."

"Geet,asa maath kaho acha main jaha raha hoon.Main jannat ko le jaon ushe dil behla loon ga"

"Nai,jannat meri hai sirf."

"Geet,yaar meri behna"Prem said

"Tu bhi agaya idher"

Prem knew when geet used "tu" it was a bad sign,so he put a hand on Maan's shoulder and gently warned him.Maan and Prem looked at geet,who had her back turned to them."Sorry geet,btw dadi ayi hui hain neeche."With that they left

====================================================================================

Dadi was patiently waiting for geet downstairs,but she did not come instead two very sad men came and sat down by her feet.She smiled lightly,knowing how much geet would mess with their brains before saying sorry.

"Dadiiii woh nai mani." Prem frowned.

"Dadu woh mujhse itna naraz hai ke meri baath nai sun rahi" Maan looked sadly.

"Well tum dono ne yeh nai pucha ke woh theek bhi thi ke nai,bus apni shoro kerdi.Usko saar per choote bhi ayi hai magar usne tum dono ke liye bandages uthar ke...Itni sari foundation lagayi hui hai taake uski choote na nazar aye aur tum dono pereshan na ho.WOh tum dono se itna pyar kerti hai,aur tum loog apni maan mani kerte rehte ho!Mana tumhe laga ke woh larki ki geet thi jiski death hogayi.Magar eik dafa ghar phone kerl lete!Ab intezar karo,woh toh tum dono se baath nai kare gi.Sharam karo,chalo main zara Mrs kapoor ki thori kitchen main help kerdoon."Dad said

"Geet ko choote lagi hai"Maan said with a worried look.

"Yaar mujhe bohot maare gi"

"tum hain maar ki pari hui hai"

"Maan,woh guse main,mere upher cheezain pekhti hai."

"Uncle,aap choro mujhe toh lagta hai 10 million ka usko khana khelna pare ga."

"Maar gaye" both said

"Bachooon,ajao khane ke liye.Munni(nauker)jao maam ko bhulao room se."Mrs kapoor yelled.

===================================================================================

Geet walked downstairs to find dadi sitting in the dinning room with everyone else.She slowly made her way to Dadi and bent down to recieve her blessings.Sitting by Mrs Kapoor,she silently ate her dinner,knowing that everyone was looking her way.She did not utter a word,because she was not ready to forgive them just yet.Geet was brought out of her thoughts by Jannat's wails and wimpering.She slowly made her way to Jannat and picked her up.Removing the tears that were falling from the infant's eyes,geet took her downstairs.

Maan and Prem were feeling nothing but guilt,they wanted to hear geet talk.Yet the only person she talked to was Jannat.Maan was scared to utter a word,and have geet give him the ring backHis heart was aching,she knew how to make him feel bad.This had to stop,this was PREM KAPOOR and MAAN SINGH KHURANA we were talking about.They had the female population in their hands,well except for geet.

"Geet cut the crap"

"Maan singh Khurana do not use that language in front of a lady.Especially when your dadi's around and spare the infants ears as well."

"But dadi she is acting childish now,me and prem said we were sorry.

"When you keep on repeating the word sorry,it loses its touch Mr Phurana"Geet mumbled.

"Geetuuu meetu,we were so worried yaar."Prem chiped in,

"Ofcourse thats why instead of asking how I was,you yelled at me"

"We thought you were dead"Maan said not caring about the knife that was digging in his flesh.

"TUm dono ne toh muhe waaqt se pehle maar diya."

"Ow!"Maan said as the knife had cut deep and it hurt.

"Maan!Pagal hogaye ho"Geet rushed over,forgetting about the fight,she grabbed him by the elbow and dragged him to the Kitchen.

"Chalo ji,yaar Maan agar yeh pehle sooch leta toh abhi takh yeh pyar ki batein ker rahe hote.Ab toh main bhi yeh kerna chata hoon"Prem said while his mother slapped his head

"Tum kabhi nai sudro ge" Mrs kapoor said.

====================================================================================

In the Kitchen

"maan dekho kitni gehri choote laga li"Geet said trying to control her tears.

"Hmmm,tumhain ishe se kiya,tum toh mere se baath nai ker rahi!"

Geet ignored his comment and continued to clean his cut,after putting a bandage on it geet slowly put the things away.She felt like crying,Maan was hurt most likely thinking about her.Turning around to hide her tears she washed her hands in the sink.As she was closing the faucte,Maan's hand snaked around her waist and pulled her closer.He slowly pushed her braid a side and kissed her neck.When geet squirmed because of the effect,Maan knew he was forgiven.Turning her around Maan took some water and put it on her forehead,trying to remove the extra amount of foundation so he can see the injury on her head.Upon seeing the deep gash,he heard his own heart shatter.The thought of losing geet was far worse then anything,remembering the phone call he slowly brought her closer.They were lost in their own world,and no one could even dare to ruin the moment.Maan brought his lips and gently rubbed it on her cut,gently he placed a loving kiss and placed another on her nose.Geet was totally going to lose herself,but she knew that Maan needed time to calm himself down.She also knew that their was a lecture lined up for her.A very big lecture,and she knew he would make her feel bad as well.

"Geet,tumhain toh aaj se main apne bazoo ke neeche rakhon ga.Thaake pata rahe ke tum sahi ho ke nai.Magar agar tum aaj nai jaati toh hameri zindagi main Jannat nai ati.Geet mere se waada karo ke aaj ke baade mujhe ase nai chor ke jao gi."Maan said hugging her tightly.

"I'm sorry Maan,mujhe tumhari baath suni chaiye thi.Aap pereshan na ho,main hoon aur aab toh Jannat bhi hai hamere paas."

"Wasaiy Prem ko bhi maaf kerdeina,bohot toot gaya tha woh bhi.uska jaisa dost humain kabhi nai mil sakhta geet.Uske liye humain khusiyan doondni hongi"

"haan magar bus thori aur maasti ker lein uske saath plz plz plz maan"Geet pleaded with a smirk

"Haan sahi hai,usne bhi mujhe bohot sataya tha" Maan said smiling at the idea.

====================================================================================

"Prem aaj se hum dono dost nahi,aur maan agar tumhare saath baath kare ga toh woh saala kaam se gaya!"Geet said trying not to smile at Prem's expression.

"Geet I'm so sorry,tum jo kaho gi main woh karoon ga!" Prem pleaded

"Kuch bhi?"

"Haan"

"Maan aur main tumhari saza 2 min main suna tein hain." Geet said while wishpering something in to Maan's ear.

"Prem geet aur maine decide kiya hai ke tum aaj raath hamere saath hotel jaoge,woh bhi larkiyon ke kaproon main!"

"Thats not fair!"

"Preeeem"Geet and Maan said.

"tum dono ko toh main dekh loon ga!Chalein soone thake kaal jo raath neend nai ayegi mujhe embarassement se woh aaj puri kar loon."Prem said sighing.

"Haan jao Premmuuuu"

"Zalim loog" Prem mumbled as he heard jannat squeal in joy.

"Tumne jaanat ko bhi apni side pe ker liya!"Prem whined

"Woh hameri beti hai"Geet said as Maan gave jannat a kiss.

"Haan yeh daddy ki princess hai!"

"Jannat tumne apne mamo ko dokha diya" Prem said while pulling her chubby cheeks.

"Acha jao soo Prem"

"Nai jii,main yahan cohkidari karoon ga,tum dono ki.Koi barosa nai,especially Maan ka.Haath toh uske tumhare se hatte nai.Wasai bhi Main tumhara bhai hoon abhi!"Prem said sticking his tongue out.

"Jannat apka mamo bohot ajeeb hai"

"Main asa hi hoon"

"Acha Geet Main chalta hoon,abh kahein na jana.Miss accident prone."Maan said looking at her

"Okay mere Khurana sahib"Geet said playing with his hair.

"Hmmm Mrs Khurana,I like it when you say Khurana"Maan said pulling geet closer and kissing her on her cheek.

"Ankhein baand Jannat!Yeh abh bachoon wali film nai hai!"Prem said covering Jannat's eyes.

"Haye Geet yeh kabab main hadi hai kasam se,iske liye koi larki dondo." Maan said pouting

"Oye Jannat tum toh apne ammi abbu ki tarah besharam nikli.Dekho kaise mera haath apn ankhon se hatha rahi hai!"

"Dada!"Jannat squealed streaching her hands for Maan.

All of them were suprised,but so estatc.Maan had tears of happiness in his eyes as he took Jannat and twirled her around,and watched her laugh.She hugged Maan,and searched for someone,at first they were confused as to who she was looking for.As soon as she turned to Geet,she wishpered "maamaa" and reached for geet.Geet started to cry while running to the baby.At last Jannat pointed to Prem and said "moooomooo," Prem jumped in joy,but pouted at Jannat when she hugged geet tighter and not offer him a hug.

"hahaha Mooomooooo,prem meri beti ne tumhein cow keh diya.Thats what you get for calling me Fat."Geet said

"Betaaaa bohot deir hogai hai,dadi bhi thak gayen hain,jao Maan.Ab ghar jao.."mrs kapoor said,who had watched the exchange between the children and Jannat.

"Ok,Aunty,Prem I mean moooomooooo,geet and Uncle.Bye GN"Maan and Dadi waved goodbye and left.
