Hey all...
Thank you all of those who wished me for the 100 pages for this FF..couldn't have done it without you all.🤗
Re-cap : I had known something was wrong and now I knew what it was. I was planning to track that bas***d down. And once I find him; I am going to kill him. No one and I mean no one dared to harm his Misiti.
Ch.19
I sat in my office looking at the Delhi roads unable to focus on work when my mind was worrying about the woman I loved the most. My Misiti, My Geet was in danger and I wasn't able to do anything; absolutely nothing. On the way back, Geet had made me promise I would never mention that bas***d because somehow he always knew what she was doing. It had been a week since we have been back from Goa and I didn't want to let her out of my sight but with the wedding with so close; she was always off with Meera, Anna and Dadi. I had cameras installed in the house and outhouse; increased the security and posted guards outside the outhouse. When everyone questioned the extra security, I had shrugged it off saying that it was wedding house and there were going to be many people around.
Unable to hire detectives and police from Delhi incase that bas***d found out, I traveled to Mumbai to get it done. The Mumbai police got in touch with the Delhi police and assured me that they were up to date. The detectives would discreetly be watching out for the family especially Geet while blending with the wedding staff. I had to check the background of every staff member who was hired for the wedding; I just wasn't ready to take any risks.
I sighed as I leaned against the chair; I was feeling so helpless lately. I felt like I wasn't doing enough to protect her; the bas***d was still out there. What if he harmed her? My cell phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts. I smiled when I saw the display. I tried to sound cheerful as I answered.
"Hi Misiti, how are you?", he asked.
"Hi Maan, I am fine. What are you doing?', I said as I quietly said hello to people around me with my hand signaling them not to say anything.
"Hmmm, just working on some files", he lied as he leaned with his head against the chair.
"Really I didn't know you had the power to check files with your eyes closed"
His eyes shot open as he looked around, 'Where are you Geet?"
"Somewhere very close to you", I said with a smile as I walked into his cabin.
We disconnected our phone as he enveloped me into his arms holding me tight. I knew he held the fear of losing me in his heart. I wrapped my arms around his neck coming closer to him. "I missed you", I said quietly
"I missed you too, I saw you exactly" , he took a pause as he glanced at his watch "6 hours, 12 minutes and 34 seconds ago"
I held his hand as we walked to the sofa. He laid his head on my shoulder and closed his eyes as he sighed. I held his hand as he rested his eyes. He was so worried nowadays; it's starting to affect his health. He only seemed to be at peace when I was in front of his eyes but with the Mehndi in just 2 days away, I had no time to spend with him and that was making him restless.
"Maan, why do we go home early and you can take a nap? You look so tried", I said as I touched his dark circles
"We go home? Did you come here by yourself? Geet, I already told you---"
"I know Maan, I know. Don't worry. I was out with Meera and Anna. I told them to drop me off here because I wanted to see you.", I said as I touched his cheek.
He pulled me in his lap as he held me close, "It's good you came to see me. I---", he cut off as Adi Sir walked in. I quickly got off his lap and looked away embarrassed .Adi put up his glasses up as his face colored.
"Where are your knocking manners Adi?', Maan asked in anger. He didn't care that people saw us together but he knew how shy I still was around people.
"S'sss-sorry Sir, I didn't r'realize Geet was here. I just needed to get this file signed.
I touched Maan's hand lightly to ease his anger, "It's okay. Why don't you sign the file and we can head home?"
Maan nodded and quickly signed the file. "T'Thank you s'sir", Adi stuttered before he walked out closing the door.
I touched his cheek to get him to look at me, "Maan, don't be so angry. Everything will be fine. I want to see my smiling Maan."
He said nothing in return but just wrapped his arms my shoulders to hug me tight. I was questioning my decision to tell him now seeing the effect it was having on him. He loved me; he loved me too much, I thought. Hand in hand, we walked out of the office to head back home.
Two days later
I paced my room as the Mehndi was taking place downstairs. Apparently, the women were getting their henna done and the men had been banned off which was just not fair. I had barely seen Geet and it was making me restless. Poor Vicky couldn't see his wife either and was sulking off somewhere. Since when did the wedding functions take place without the groom? Or the groom's brother?
I made my way downstairs hiding myself whenever I was about to be seen. I was going to see Geet no matter who stopped me. But if I got caught, Geet would probably kill me for roaming around when I wasn't suppose to be. She had warned me earlier from sneaking downstairs. Making my way to the main hall when all the girls and women were, I quickly hid behind the pillar as the light transparent curtains were around me. A smile instantly touched my lips when I saw her sitting across the room getting her henna done. She was draped in a light violet saree looking adorable. She quietly said something to the lady doing her henna. The lady nodded before she added something to her palm.
I continued to watch her as she got her henna done. When she was done, she thanked the lady before getting up. She went up to Dadi and said something in her ear before she started walking in my direction. Oh my god, if she catches me here, she will kill me. I hid behind the pillar praying she would go the other way. Meera moved the curtains aside for her as she held out both her hands out with wet henna. She stepped into the corridor and started walking the other way. I breathed a sigh of relief but it was short lived when her pallu got stuck on the dry flowers sitting in a vase. She tried to tug on it lightly without ruining her henna. She soon gave up and turned away. I gasped as the pallu slipped off her shoulder and exposed her partially covered chest and bare stomach. What if someone saw her? I quickly came out of my hiding as I grabbed her. She was about to scream when I covered her mouth. I hid her behind the pillar and stood in her covering her exposed body. She looked at me with shy eyes as she stood there with her arms out. She wasn't going to be able to put up her pallu without ruining her henna. I was tempted to stare at her but instead i picked up her pallu to put it back in place. I lightly brushed her stomach; she sucked in her breath and closed her eyes as I touched her. I started putting her pallu on her.
"Maan, what are you doing here? What if someone sees you?", she asked.
"I don't care who sees me. I wanted to see you.", I said as I put my hands under the saree touching her curves.
"Maan, behave yourself", she said as she tried to wiggle out of my hold.
"What if I don't want to?", I teased as I started to nuzzle my nose in her neck.
"Maan, stop it'that trickles", she giggled as she continued to wiggle. She couldn't use her hands as they had henna on them and I used it to my advantage. I brought her closer and she held her arms away her body.
"Maan please", she said as she moved. In the process, she rubbed some of her henna on my shirt. I looked at her palm and saw the patch where the henna got off.
"I am so sorry Geet, your henna got ruined."
"Maan, your name was there, it got erased", she said with tearful eyes.
"It's okay, we can get it fixed", I said.
"Maan, it inauspicious to get your future husband's erased off your palm.", she said with fear in her voice.
I leaned in to kiss her cheek, "Don't worry Misiti, nothing will ever happen to me as long as I have you by my side. Come on, we will get your henna fixed."
She was about to turn around to walk back to the function when I held her wrist. I shook my head as I started to lead her upstairs. We hid behind pillars, walls and doors dodging guests as we made our way upstairs. Somehow, we made it back to my room.
"How exactly are we suppose to fix my henna up here?", she asked as she sat on the bed.
"Well, I shall fix it for you My Highness", I said as I bowed in front of her.
"You", she said in shock and laughed as she threw her head back. I watched her laugh for a second.
"Of course, I am Maan Singh Khurana after all", I said with the attitude I was famous for.
She tried to repress her laughter as she looked at me. I walked over to the table to pick up the henna cone I had snuck upstairs. Holding her palm, she waited. I bent my head and focused on re-creating my letters on her hand. I furrowed in concentration as I made each letter as neatly as possible.
"There, all done", I said I looked at my name in her hand.
"Wow, I must say Mr. Khurana, you are quite talented even with a henna cone.", she said with a smile. "Thank you for putting your name back, I would be incomplete without it.", she said and came closer to kiss my cheek.
"Your welcome. Don't worry; I will always be on your palm as well your life. No one, and I no one can ever separate us.", I said as I gathered her in my arms. She sighed and came closer.
He watched them from the door hiding himself well. No one questioned him, as they all knew him but just not his intentions. He had casually walked upstairs as he saw them both leaving after Maan fixed her pallu. I had stared at her when her pallu fell off wanting to devour her body. But that Maan had taken her upstairs. Maan Singh Khurana was in for a surprise because before Vicky's wedding would be over, Geet Handa would be mine.
