hi guys!
I'm really sorry for the delay...I had personal commitments and couldn't find time to update...
anyway here's the update-
Vicky-Rajji
Vicky- bhai, are you and bhabhi going to get Dadima?
Maan- Yeah..you stay at home..Geet's calling you for some work so just go to her right now..she's upstairs.
Rajji, you stay here and help me
After Vicky went, Maan looked at Rajji and decided to ask her
Maan- Vicky Geet ka chhota bhai hai bilkul, haina?
Rajji- yeah jiju, absolutely true. Vicky is very hardworking and di ki bohot respect karte hain
Maan- hmmm..I was thinking..we have a new office opening soon in London and I think he would like to shift there for a few years. MArry someone when he wants- absolute freedom to do as he likes and work there
Rajji-😲 but...bu.t..how can he...
Maan- hmm? how can he what?
Rajji blushed furiously- how can he go?
Maan smiled and sighed. HE came close to Rajji and put his hands on her shoulders.
Geet brought Vicky so that they could hear too...
Maan- Rajji...do you want to tell me something?
Rajji- woh...jiju...I...I will miss him. a lot actually
she swallowed. She realized jiju won't leave her so soon
Rajji- And..uh...jiju...I like him
She blushed furiously and looked down.
Maan and Geet looked at each other and smiled and suddenly Vicky realized this was one smile that could turn everything around.
And this smile between two people who absolutely loved each other is what he wanted also.
And he wanted it with Rajji. Forever.
Maan left with Geet quietly, Rajji still looking down
Vicky came to Rajji..who was still looking down..too embarrassed to notice anything
Vicky coughed a bit and Rajji looked up and around
Rajji- woh...jiju?
Vicky- gaye..they went long ago..
Rajji- why didn't you tell me?
Vicky stared into her lovely eyes
Vicky- why didn't you?
Rajji- you mean you..
Vicky nodded and came even closer and Rajji pulled away and went to sit on the sofa
Vicky went to her and kneeled on the carpet; with his hands resting on Rajji's knees, he looked upto her and said
Vicky- I love you. We are young and we have our lives before us. I want to spend my life with you. I want to GROW with you. We can take it as slow as you want..or as fast
He grinned suddenly
Vicky- whatever the speed..you are handling the wheel..so..tell me what you want to do
rajji- if i get tired..
vicky- of me?
Rajji- no silly..of handling the wheel?
Vicky- I'll take over. When either of us is weak, the other will take care. I want to make you happy Rajji and I want to be happy with you. I saw bhai and bhabhs smile at each other. This is what we could have...
Rajji- hmm...you think..?
Vicky- stop teasing me..ek toh I'm trying to be romantic and you..
Rajji took his hands in hers and said
Rajji- don't try. Be vicky. I love him.. not some romantic person..
I will love all the gestures you make and dialogues you throw at me..
Vicky- toh phir?
Rajji- London is it?
vicky- London?
she told Vicky about Maan's plans for him and was met by a shout of joy
they danced around in excitement and were content in their little world...
MAan-Geet were in the car with Dadi sitting at the back.Maan's head was hurting with all the talking Dadi and Geet were doing
he murmured
Maan- chapad chapad ek second chup nahi hote
Geet- kya kaha aapne?
MAan- nahi kuch nahi..main aapko kuch keh sakta hoon...sab kuchh aap hi bolti hain..
Dadi smacked maan from behind gently and they all laughed...
Dadi- maan bete.. hume lagta hai Mehak ke papa unse bhi chhote bachhe
Maan- aur mehak ki mamma sabse chhoti bachhi hain...
And with a glare from geet, hastily added
Aur sabse pyaari bhi
Maan and Geet had placed bets over what they'll find when they reached home
And of course, Geet won..so Geet told maan
Geet- chop chop...meet me at night tonight..and you'll be punished for losing...or not...
Maan's eyes glowed in anticipation and he kissed her swift as she brushed past him into the room
When Dadi came back, she realized a lot had taken place
Vicky and Rajji were together and so were Adi- Pinky
She was happy for them..they were happy in their lives and she was soon to have a little child again- Maan and Geet's child.
She saw as the months passed how maan and Geet grew stronger in their relationship, how they loved, and fought, and yet retained the freshness in their love.
Geet grew bigger with child and Maan grew quiter. she could see the loving father that Maan would make. A loving husband, a loving brother, father- he had fulfilled all his duties
But to Geet- Maan was still her dusht danav.
They had their fights
He called her fat, he called her his' beautiful moti cow' which she started crying at and he wondered why; he kissed her tears away and took her for a drive- got her mangoes to appease her
the first kick- Maan didn't sleep the entire night and kept talking to her baby till Geet finally pulled him back into her arms saying..
geet- mehak so chuki hai..please so jaao aur sone do
The best part of the entire period was that Maan and geet realized some qualities about each other they wouldn't have realized otherwise- how maan could be so patient, and Geet so trying
when Maan painted the nursery, Geet cried for a long long time and they sat together and cried over their painful pasts...he cried for her, she cried for him..as usual, thinking of each other, not themselves
Finally that day came when Geet had to be rushed to the hospital
Geet clutched Maan's hand so tight he couldn't feel it anymore and the doc told him to come inside
Maan(horrified)- WHAT? no..I can't..Oh god no...no
Geet glared at maan and hissed at him- If you don't I'm going to give birth here..do you want me to do that?
Maan- but Geet..
Geet- chaliye doctor
Maan felt really queasy but was unable to do anything about it
Inside...he felt horrified; tried to concentrate on Geet's face- but she was screaming her lungs out so he put all his strength on calmly telling her in her ear to stay strong..
And then...she came out...their beautiful beautiful daughter came out..
Geet had fainted and Maan gently nudged her
The doctor gave Geet Mehak for a moment to hold
MAan and Geet had tears streaming from their eyes
Maan- she's perfect
Thank you Geet
and he kissed her
Geet- she is our mehak maan. She is our love. We promise you darling to give you so much love and care..please never leave us again
Maan and Geet stood there..gently touching that miracle in front of them- the daughter they lost, the love they regained
The doctor had to take the child away for sometime..reassuring her parents, she took her away
Maan and Geet looked at each other and wiped each others' tears
they touched their foreheads together and then kissed each other..a long tender kiss, that tried to communicate the love and the gratitude they felt towards each other- a life that began as an act of kindness and had now developed into one which had all the joy that love could bring...all because of each other
Maan slid next to Geet on the bed and took her in his arms- exactly how he had the first night they were together
he whispered
Maan- no more nightmares Geet...no more tears...sleep now..
they snuggled closer whispering I love you every other minute ...
Okay guys- this is it!
