Chapter Twenty-Six
(Your new Name and My Acting)
Geet was still the next morning. Maan quietly slipped out of bed and went to the hospital. He didn't want Geet to come and he saw that she was dead tired.
It was around 1pm and Geet got up. She opened her eyes slowly and wanted to find Maan beside her. She wanted his touch she wanted to hear his heart beat... She was scared... What if she couldn't hear it ever again?
Geet looked around the room as she laid on the bed and didn't find Maan. She sat up and she tied her hair. She looked at herself... she was all changed into her night clothes. She blushed at the thought of Maan changing her... She stretched a little and yawned. She noticed a little post it note saying, " Don't you dare leave the KM... I'll be back soon.. love you-Maan..." She smiled... Maan loved her so much.
Her phone began to ring and she picked it up. " Hello?" said Geet in sleepy tone. " GEEET... KAISI HAI TU? JEEJ NE MUJHE BATAYA KAY TERE TABIYAT KHARAB HAIN.. THATS IT IDIOT... MEIN AARAHI HOON" yelled Meera as she was clearly furious at her sister. " Meera.. main theek hoon.. tu fikar mat kar... tere jeej hain naa..." said Geet. " NAHIN... ITNI STUPID HAI TU... TU DOCTOR HAI... YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER!" yelled Meera again.
"Meer.. araam se.. main theek hoon... acha aaja ghar pe.. apparently Im not suppose to leave the KM..." said Geet. " IM OUTSIDE" said Meera. Geet laughed so hard. " SHUTUP AUR WOH GUARD SE BOLDAY KAY WOH GATE KHOLDAY!" yelled Meera. " Acha aarahi hoon" said Geet. She laughed and she went out of her room and she went down the stairs slowly.
She opened the door and yelled, " Durgaprasad...zara gate khol dijiye" The guard nodded and he opened the gate to let Meera;s car roar into the front. She opened the door and saw her sister get out her car angrily. She only laughed to herself. Meera walked towards her and stood at the doorstep. Meera threw her arms around Geet and hugged her hard. Geet hugged her twice as hard. " Hey pagall...I missed you..." said Geet. " I missed you tooo stupid..." said Meera softly. The girls laughed and they broke out of their hug and Geet welcomed her in. Meera looked around and she smiled, " Beautiful house Geet..."
" Thanks... aacha aaja.. I haven't had breakfast aur tu mere saath nashta karegi.." said Geet as she pulled her in. Meera put her handon her cheek, " The house is so empty.. aur pata hai loser...Nikki and I cried our eyes out when we came home..." said Meera. " Love you sis" said Geet. The girls chirped on and then Dadimaa emerged out of the kitchen. She smiled, " Meera bete!.. kaisi hain aap?"
Meera smiled and said, " Namaste Dadimaa... main theek.. aur aap?" " Hum theek hain.." smiled Dadimaa. Meera went up and Dadimaa hugged her. The ladies went into the main living room and talked. " Dadimaa.. main aati hoon.. change kar ke aajati hoon" said Geet. Dadimaa nodded and Meera and her clicked instantly. Meera and her crazy dishum dishum drama's and of course Dadimaa's love of them too.
Geet went up and changed into her favorite light pink and light blue churidaar that Maan had seen her in the first time they met. It held memories for both of them. Geet got ready and she put her payals on. She didn't know why but she had to. Geet came down and she found the ladies still talking so loud about drama;s. " Seriously Meer... if Maan had a younger brother... I would've hooked you up with him" said Geet. Meera laughed, " Yeh tera ghar hain.. aur tujhe pata hain.. I have to take care of Nikki."
" Haan haan.. pata hain" said Geet. Meera was the bigger sister after Geet and she wouldn't marry unless she married Nikki off and then she would think about marrying. Geet always took care of Meera and Nikki like her younger sisters and Meera felt like she needed to be there for both of her sisters no matter what. "Acha Geet... jeej kahaan hain?" asked Meera. " Woh janaab hospital gaye hain" said Geet.
" Oh okay.." said Meera. The ladies talked for awhile and they had breakfast together. " Acha Geet... yeh bata kay tu khush hain naa? aur tere appointments onocologists se hue hain kya?" asked Meera. Geet nodded. " Maan ne saaray appointments book karwa diye" said Geet. " Tu itni lucky hain kay tere paas jeej hain" said Meera. " Tu fikar mat kar... tera rajkumar bhi aayega" said Geet. " Oh shutup.. aisay kuch nahin honay wala" said Meera.
Just then Maan and Yash entered and Geet stood up with joy. Maan smiled at her and Geet looked away shyly. They all greeted eachother and Geet couldn't help but laugh at the sudden appearance of Yash as she mentioned Meera's rajkumar. " Seriously Yash... lambi umar" said Geet as she winked at Meera. Meera only blushed a little and they all sat down around the dining table and talked.
Geet felt like being naughty... For Gods sake she missed him so much. She texted him, " Meet me in our room.. make an excuse" Maan recieved the text and only smiled and he texted back, " Sherni... kya karne ka iraada hain... acha I will make an excuse"
Maan shut his phone and said, " Geet...I told you earlier to take out something for me... the report that I brought home.. I need it back and I couldn't find it". Geet acted all surprised and she narrowed her eyes, " Acha... I'll show you". They were so good at this.. no one wouldve known. " I'll chill with Dadimaa" said Yash. The three went into the living room talking and Maan and Geet went upstairs. They were halfway up and they knew no one could see them. Maan grabbed onto her hand and brought her into their room. Geet quickly went in with Maan and he shut the door behind them.
Maan went upto her and he grabbed onto her waist lovingly and stared into her eyes. " I missed you so much Maan" said Geet as she snaked her arms around his neck. " I didnt know that my Geet missedme that much" said Maan. " You changed me didn;t you?" said Geet. Maan only looked to the side and smiled his hottt smile.
" Maybe.. kya karlogi tum?" said Maan. " Not fair Mr. Khurana... I didn't get a chance to do anything" said Geet. " Im all yours" said Maan. Geet hugged him and he hugged her back passionately. " Btw.. I changed you in the dark" said Maan. Geet broke out ofthe hug and smiled, " Really? I think that was the promo dhak dhak... I wouldn;t mind you doing it all in the light"
" Oh ho Sherni.. itni himmat kaisay aayi?" said Maan. " I don;t know... maybe its the effects of you" said Geet. " I love you so much Maan... that I get scared of losing you... I don't want to breathe my last Maan..." said Geet as she had little tears in her eyes. He said, " Mishti... I won't let anything happen to you" He caught the tears that were about to escape out of her eyes.
" Mishti...?" said Geet. " Yeah baby.. you're new name for me" said Maan. " Hmm... I like it" said Geet. " I like Mishti" winked Maan. " Btw... tumhara kal appointment Heer kay saath hain... chemo..." said Maan. " Oh ho... acha khaasa romantic mood kharab kar diya Maan" said Geet as she rolled her eyes. " After you're fine and healthy you should be okay and have you checked your blood sugar?" said Maan. " Yes sir... this morning" said Geet.
" Acha now its romantic moodd time" said Maan as he nuzzled her neck. " Mmm mishti you smell good..." said Maan. " Its versache" said Geet. " The one I got you?" said Maan." Yes and in fact if you haven't noticed that Ive worn the same outfit the first time i saw you and your favorite perfume on me" said Geet. " Oh right! yaad aya... the first time I checked my Geet out" said Maan. " You checked me out?" said Geet. " Of course... damn you looked like an angel... I was frankly going to hire you even if you didn't go to Oxford" said Maan. " hawww Maan!" said Geet. " What hawww Maan... mishti... I fell in love with you the first time I saw you..." said Maan.
" Is that so?" said Geet. " I checked you out the first time you wore blue" said Geet. " Oh really Mrs. Khurana?" said Maan. " Of course Maan... you looked delicious.. no wonder all the girls run after you" said Geet. " You didn't" said Maan. " PlayingHard to get darling" winked Geet.
Just then Meera knocked on their bedroom door. Geet tried to push him away but he grabbed onto her tighter. " Geet.. tu andar hain... kuch baat hain kya?" called Meera. " Haan.. haan. haan Meera.. main theek hoonn.." said Geet as Maan grabbed onto her and kissed her neck. " Let go Maan!" whispered Geet. " How about NO!" said Maan. He continued his romancing and she was worried Meera would come in. "Maan! sharam kijiye" said Geet as she tried to push her bear of a husband away.
" Sharam to hum mein nahin hain.." said Maan. " Maan Singh Khurana I will seriously make you sleep on the floor if you don't stop" said Geet. Maan stopped and he looked at her with puppy dog eyes. " Geet..." said Maan. " Pretend you're trying to find files Maan...!" said Geet. Maan rolled his eyes.
Was his family seriously at his life to interrupt Geet and him romance? He did what she said and he kept on saying, " Geet! you're a doctor and you can't keep things in order!"
Geet called, " Sorry Maan it should be there" She opened the door to find Meera looking worried. " kya hua meer?" asked Geet. " Tu theek hain naa?" said Meera. " Haan haan mein theek hoon..." said Geet. " GEET! seriously.. file kahaan hain" said Maan. " Oh ho jii.. ek to aap mein sabar nahin hain" said Geet as she turned around to look at Maan trying to rummage through his drawers.
Meera crossed her arms and said, " Jeej... its on the table"
Maan stopped and he stood up and looked at Geet who just mumbled, " Wah mere dillip kumar.. wah... bhaanda poorh diya naa?"
Maan only smiled to the side and he went over and picked it up. " Oh what do you know Geet! thanks saali sahiba... Geet! learn something from Meera" " Maan don't start with me again" said Geet. " Acha tum dono yehi laraai kartay rehna.. I have to head off to work" said Meera.
Geet nodded and she hugged Meera who whispered, " Agar romance kar rahi hain to bata diya hota... main ussi waqt chali jaati". Geet only laughed, " Shutup... agar Maan ko pata chala naa.. to woh mere saath kabhi romance nahin karenge". They laughed and broke out of the hug.
" Bye Meer... love you and call me... we need to catch up" called Geet. " Ill call yuo in the evening after I pick Nikki up from work" said Meera. Geet nodded and waved her sister goodbye. She went back to find Maan sitting on the bed moping around. She shut the door and sat beside him. " Sorry baby" whispered Geet. " Its alright.. yaar.. whenever im romancing someone has to interrupt" said Maan. She put her hand on his cheek and said, " Its okay... maybe you should wait for that moment"
" You have the full right to touch me Maan... and btw im right beside you and you aren't? not fair at all Mr. Khurana" whispered Geet. His ears shot up and he looked at her." Meena kumari jaisi acting nahin kijiye...chaliye... CAN I PLEASE go to work... I get so fidgety if I have nothing to do.. dadimaa doesn't let me cook or clean..." said Geet.
Geet sat back further on the bed and he slid back and put his head on her lap. She stroked his forhead and he just stared at her lovingly. He played with her long brown hair. " You can work tomorrow" said Maan. " For now you're with me Geet Singh Khurana" said Maan as he closed his eyes. She only laughed and continued to chirp on and on about things while Maan of course justt listened to his mishti.
