Chapter 3: Mere Saath Chalte Chalte

It was a Wednesday evening and they had met last week at the restaurant.

Maan had gone to the bar but Geet wasn't there because she worked alternate weekends. So she had her weekend off.

Today, he decided to go to the restaurant maybe for evening coffee. He just wanted to see her. He for some reason just enjoyed her company. He felt bad about how sad she looked and just wanted to make sure everything was alright.

He walked in and sat at a table for two in the corner.

A waiter approached him.

Before the man could say anything Maan spoke.

"Do you know where Geet is?"

"Yes she's over there(he pointed to the right where she was serving an old couple some water)is there any problem sir?"

"No problem I just like her service better" he said casually.

The waiter looked at him shocked and then left to go get Geet.

Maan saw from a distance that the waiter pointed towards him and told her something with a confused expression on his face.

Geet looked over to Maan's direction and just looked at him smiling a half smile.

Maan looked at her and waved.

She then came over to him.

"Wow you like my service better? That's the strangest thing I have ever heard, no one has said that to me. EVER! Listen Maan I have told you that I have no time for this and I'm not the type of girl you think I am. So please stop wasting your time over me. I'm not worth it!" she said as if giving a lecture in annoyance.

He looked up at her with his head leaning on the hand that was on the table just listening to her.

"Are you listening to me?" she asked waving a hand infront of his face.

"Yeah yeah yeah!!! When do you get off?" he asked ignoring her lecture.

"At 7:00" she said confused.

"Oh like in 15 minutes then" he said looking at his watch.

"Why? And didn't you hear what I said?" she asked totally blank.

"Do I have ears? Then obviously I heard what you said. You women love repeating yourself. Okay I'm going to finish some pending work on my laptop here and you can go and finish, I have to talk to you" he said demanding.

"NO! For the final time!" she said irritated.

"Do you want me to call the manager? This is a well behaved restaurant okay! Don't make me complain'..and remember the customer is always right!" he said holding back his laughter.

She looked at him and while shaking her head in denial she turned to go.

He smirked and took out his laptop.

He waited for her by the exit.

She came over to where he was standing.

"Now tell me where you want to go?" he asked sweetly.

"Is this a joke?" she asked furrowing her brows with attitude.

"Answer" he said tapping his foot.

"NO WHERE!!" she said shouting.

"You shout way too much sweetheart!" he said nodding his head in denial slowly.

He then tilted his face to look into those eyes.

After a few seconds he spoke.

"I know you think you don't have time but you do'no I don't think your those type of girls and no I am trying to get you to sleep with me! (he then walked closer holding her hand) and you are worth it!! Don't say that ever again" he said while looking straight into her eyes.

He for once and the first time EVER in his life had felt like comforting someone. He just for once wanted to see GENUINE happiness in those eyes. He was tired of looking into them with the same story repeating again and again.

She looked at him with moist eyes. NO ONE had ever said that she was worth it. Even if he was just fooling around with her, it felt good to hear someone say that. Even if it was some guy who she didn't know. And that's why it felt even more comforting. Because he didn't know her and yet he had already had an image of how she was.

"Don't say you don't have time!" he said smirking looking at her lost expression.

"I have no time it's true" she said glumly.

"Why the hell are you always sad and depressed you're not the only one who has problems!!!!" he said shouting.

She stopped to look at him into the eyes, then smiled a sad smile.

"Can we go or do you want me to shout louder!" he said not being able to hold his angry tone for long and grabbed her waist smiling.

She gasped at his reaction.

"What are you?" she asked feeling light headed in his arms.

"Just checking to see if you're still coming, now where do you want to go?" he asked letting her go.

"I don't know?" she said confused.

"How about we go to the lake?" he said offering.

She nodded smiling, at his sweetness. But she was the type who didn't trust people easily, so she maintained a distance.

"I love this, I always come here and work, I find it very soothing. And you?" he asked looking towards her.

"I have never had the time" she said shrugging.

"OH GOD!!!! AGAIN? I don't have the time, I don't have the time? What's wrong tell my why?" he said raising a brow.

She glared at him and then spoke.

"I work two jobs, okay. I get an alternate weekend off from the club. And I get every alternate Wednesday and Thursday off at the Restaurant" she said looking at the waves.

He looked at her tilting his head and then spoke.

"What do you when you're not working?"

"I have chores and stuff" she said avoiding the matter.

"You can tell me" he said holding her hand.

She moved her hand away then spoke.

"I have to send money back home to my parents, you know for their medical fees and rent and all" she said looking away from him again.

"WOW" he said shocked.

She looked at him now.

"I mean you are a girl and you work for your parents and have no time for yourself, don't you have other siblings?" he asked stunned.

"No" she said plainly.

"I'm the only child, as you know (he smirked) I live with my Dadi and my mom and dad are in India right now but they often come here" he said plainly.

"Oh''." She said playing with her ponytail.

He looked at her smiling.

"You know you're a very brave and strong girl" he said saluting her.

"And you're very sweet" she said smiling fully now.

He noticed that and felt content to see her smile because of him for once.

"And that as the first time you said anything without attitude in your tone" he said winking.

She laughed.

He again loved the way she laughed. The wind hitting a strand of hair across her face.

He leaned closer to move it away.

She froze as he moved the strand away.

He smirked at her reaction.

"Calm down I won't eat you" he said raising a brow.

She rolled her eyes.

"So what's your favourite colour?" he asked her to see if the plain girl would say something dull.

"White" she said looking up.

He laughed.

After about 30 seconds she got up.

"I'm going!" she stomped.

He held her hand and pushed her back down to sit.

"Wait wait wait!!!!"

"Oh finally you stopped laughing like an idiot" she said folding her arms across her chest.

"Mine's red" he said looking at her.

She nodded.

"Well it's 9 I think we should leave" she said getting up.

He got up.

"No, we will have dinner" he said leading her towards the car.

He stopped midway then turned back to look at her.

"Please, don't make me give you and explanation of why you should have dinner with me. Don't worry I won't pay for you" he said smirking.

She smiled looking to her left then started to walk.

After dinner he had insisted her to come for ice-cream.

"One vanilla" she said.

He looked at her smiling.

"Wow is it cuz vanilla's white?" he asked raising a brow amused.

"I'm going if you don't stop teasing me!!!" she said pouting.

"One cookie dough" he said winking at the lady who was gawking at him.

"I love your eyes" the lady said to him.

He smiled and looked at Geet who tapped her foot in annoyance.

They then sat outside eating their ice-cream.

"You know you're not that bad" She said eating her ice cream.

He smiled.

"Thanks after all I'm Maan Singh Khurana" he smirked.

"So, what do you do? Work?" she asked casually.

"We have a Construction business back home, but here I am doing my MBA"

"Oh, I knew you were rich but didn't know you were smart" she said stunned, and amused.

"Ha ha!" he said sarcastic.

He then dropped her home and before she went outside she turned to him.

"This was very special thank you! So much!! I don't remember having company the last time I had ice cream" she smiled.

He chuckled and then watched her leave right into the apartment.

He wanted her to turn back and give that genuine smile of hers but she left and he was slightly disappointed.

Then he looked at the door to see her wave and smile. He smiled widely waving back and then both left.

He felt happy very happy.
