****Part 4****

Geet sat in her room working on the accounts file Brij Bhaiyaji has given her to check over the figures. He had been very upset, yelled at her saying he had to go out to the city with Shubna and Channi to shop for her clothes when he had so many importing things to do at his office. Geet had listened to his yells and had taken the kicks silently with her head bent down. She started reading through the file as soon as Brij Bhaiyaji left slamming the door loudly which had her covering her ears in fright. She began calculating the figures and counting the numbers provided in the file, frowning as she came upon the wrong figures. As she checked further in the file, calculating the figures again this time using a calculator but again she came with the incorrect figures. She sighed was this why Brij Bhaiyaji had given her the file to read over because he realized the accounts were not correct? She shook her head not understanding why the person, whoever it was that was in-charge of the accounts file did such a thing. She shuddered instantly as she thought of what Brij Bhaiyaji would do to that person, she quickly prayed to Babaji to help the person from Brij Bhaiyaji's wrath. She went back to finish her work with the file, going through the pages, marking the figures that were incorrect, writing down the right figures to the given numbers and at last adding in the amount which has been gambled by the accountant. She was so immersed in working on the file that she completely forgot about the two guests that were sitting in the living room talking with her father regarding her marriage, getting the Kundli's matched.

She yawned after closing the file, the cleaning and washing had taken a lot of time, it had been nearly two in the morning when she had gone to sleep but was up by five thirty out of habit. She had contemplated going back to sleep for one more hour but the fear of her father finding out had her out of bed. She had started with cleaning her room which was the smallest, the coldest and the messiest room with no windows. It was a small basement, the irregular pentagon shape of the basement made it look even smaller. There was very little furniture, an old almost broken full sized bed, a small table which had belonged to Gurvinder Bhaiyaji once but he was kind enough to give it to her instead of throwing it out in the garbage, a sewing machine and a bag filled with her embroidery kit and two big boxes filled with books she had been given from her three brothers. The books that had made her living more pleasant, because if there was one thing in her life that Geet was grateful for then it was this gift of education her father and her three brothers gave her. Giving her their class books, teaching her all those lessons which they were being taught in school but even that had stopped eight years ago. Now they just gave her the books, now they didn't bother in teaching her or explaining the lessons like they used to. But she did not mind that, as long as they kept giving her the books to learn she was content with it, she was old enough to teach herself the writings of the books, she did not need any explanations from her brothers.

There really was not much cleaning to do in her room except for stacking all the books that were laying on floor in a box and sweeping the floor clean and placing the multicolor carpet she had stitched from the left over pieces she had saved of the curtains, cushion cases and the sheets. It was around eight in the morning when she finished with all the work, stitched the new dress her brother had gotten her; it had been too big for her so she decided to run it through the sewing machine making it a size for her, and then seeing that she had time to spare decided on embroidering a border on the neckline and sleeves. The dress was simple, a yellow colored shalwal kameez, but the dupatta was colorful, the flowers on the dupatta filled with green, pink, red and white colors. After finishing with the stitches she stepped into her little bathroom for her daily ten minute shower with cold water she was allowed to take.

By ten she had everything in order for the guests, the breakfast was ready, the haveli was cleaned, she was ready wearing her new dress and the mark on her face was barely visible thanks to the ointment she had applied. The doorbell rang exactly two minutes after ten, her father ordering her to return to her room....

***********

The growing voice of the footsteps alerted Geet of someone's approach. She quickly stood up, straightened her dress, made sure her dupatta was draped rightly on her head. Her long hair tied tightly in a bun like always concealing her beautiful silky hair.

"Chalo, they want to see you and remember what I instructed you if you behave otherwise then you know what will happen" Mohender warned his daughter as he tightly held onto her right arm and walked her towards the guests. The family was no doubt very traditional, which is why they had insisted for a traditional and sanskari bride for their son. From what Mohender gathered, it was the daughter that was the head of the house, it was very evident from the way she held herself and from the interactions he had with both grandmother and daughter. He was just glad that he was able to explain everything about Geet to them, lying to them about Geet's fear of sunlight, crowd and loud noises. They were uncertain about it, questioning too many things about Geet and her life but he knew one look at Geet they will not question anything further and readily get their son married to his daughter.

"Yeh hai meri beti Geet" Mohender introduced his daughter to Naintara and Savitri devi, tightening his hold on Geet's arm and commanding her in a low whisper to lift her head up and greet the guests. He gave her a warning glare seeing her distress and struggle against his hold, wanting to, trying to flee back to her room. He knew it would be hard for Geet, after years of leaving in seclusion away from the outside world and the strangers to suddenly be in the presence of the strangers and to actually expect her to interact with them when she hadn't ever interacted with her own father and brothers.

Naintara and Savitri stared at Geet in astonishment. The shock of seeing Geet had their eyes wide open and their jaw dropped. They watched in silence as Geet appeared in front of them, greeting them by folding her hands and then bent down to touch their feet as instructed by her father. Naintara watched as the girl stood before them, her hands trembling and her eyes looking at her father. One look at the girl, and Nainatara knew she had to make the girl her brother's, she had to make her the Bahu of the Khurana family............

The word beautiful sounded very lame when describing Geet, she was way beyond beautiful. Her skin the palest and the softest Naintara has ever seen, her oval shaped face radiated a sense of true innocence. Naintara stared at the girl, analyzing the girl, her body was slim, very slim but with the perfect curves and her eyes... Naintara gasped staring into the girls eyes... her eyes were the honey brown color, almost like hazel... the eyes that had been haunting her since the past year, the eyes that she can never forget, those eyes that reminded her of someone, Geet's eyes were just like her... NO! she stopped her thoughts, not wanting to return back to those bitter sweet memories that she had tried so hard to forget.

But apart from the beauty there was something completely different about the girl that Naintara couldn't quite place it. It was something very virtuous, very innocent; there was a sense of goodness, a saint like aura that came from the girl. It was like a glow surrounded around the girl, the aura that came from her had Naintara feeling a bond with the girl. The girl was perfect..... too perfect and too beautiful to be human...........

"Hume Ladki pasand hai Mr. Handa" Naintara stated loudly, Savitri gasped "Naintara'. Yeh kya... don't you think she is too…." Savitri tried to explain her granddaughter.

"Ma, abhi nahin we will talk about this later. I like her and I know you like her too. She is perfect for Veere" Naintara whispered to her grandmother.

"Nainatara!" Savitri stared hard at her granddaughter daring her to defy.

Naintara stared back at her grandmother, no words passed between the two but still it seemed like they were having a conversation… a long silence surrounded the room as Mohender stared at the two who were busy glaring at each other, he sent a glance at his daughter who had her head down, clutching the end of the dupatta and seemed to be oblivious to everything.

Mohender cleared his throat not able to handle the silence anymore. "Is there a problem Savitri ji?"

"koi problem nahi hain Mr. Handa, Dadima bus Geet se akele main kuch baat karna chahte hain. If you don't mind can we please have a few minutes alone with your daughter?" Naintara asked, ignoring the elbow she received from her grandmother.

"Yes, yes of course, Geet will take you both upstairs to the study room" Mohender said looking towards his daughter who stood rigid as a statue beside him. Her head bowed down, the duppatta covering her head. "Savitri ji, if you both want to spend some time with Geet then please do, I am sure you must have some questions for Geet"

Naintara smiled in delight at the prospect of having a moment alone with Geet …. She had wanted to really see the girl without the shadow of her father and bothers beside her. The girl seemed too timid and shy, had not yet spoken a single word… Naintara wanted to hear the girl's voice, wished to know the girl's desire and her view on this alliance…. But mostly she wanted her grandmother to see just how perfect this girl is for her brother…
