Chapter Four
(Socha Na Tha)
Geet returned home that night to her house that she shared with her cousin Meera. " Meer... main aagayi hoon" called Geet as she threw her keys into the bowl beside the front door. " I'm in the kitchen Geet" called Meera. Geet put her bag down and she entered the kitchen to find that Meera had prepared dinner and it was almost done. " What did you make Meer?" said Geet as she took the plates from the cupboard and set them on the tiny dining table.
" Bengan.. and alloo bhaji" said Meera with a smile. " My faavoorite Meer! love you for that sis" said Geet. " Yeah yeah miss doctor.. lets sit and eat" said Meera as she took the food out in big white bowl. Meera set the food on the table and they both sat down. " So how was your first day Geet?" said Meera as she took out the food on her plate.
" Kya bataoon.. it was good.. i love my little interns.. sweet people. and haye rabba.... my senior doctor.. Dr. Maan Singh Khurana... karoos.. saruuu.. har waqt moo lakta hua rehta hai uska.. kabhi muskurata nahin hai" said Geet as she was eating. Meera laughed, " Geeto.. not everyone is like you... and besides.. is it that same Dr. Khurana that I hear about in my office? apparently some girls pretend to be sick just to see Dr. Khurana."
When Geet heard that she started laughing hysterically, " Seriously?!?! hahaha! that is the most funniest thing you said Meer". Meera looked at her with amusement, " So many girls would DIE to be in your place Geet... trust me on that one..." Geet stopped laughing for a second, " Meera... don't say that.." Meera realized what she said and she looked at her food with guilt. Geet smiled a little bit, " Its okay Meer... get use to it! seriously.. all of you are so dark and dreeearyy.. smile.. laugh.. haye rabba.. tum bhi saru aur karoos Dr. Khurana ki tarah nahi banjana please" said Geet as she folded her hands together to plead her jokingly. Meera laughed, " Idiot.. chal khaa khana.." Geet nodded and the girls continued to chirp on and on about their day.
That evening, Maan entered the Khurana Mansion to find his dadimaa pacing around. He stopped and raised an eyebrow, " Sab kuch theek hai dadimaa?" Dadimaa stopped and she walked towards Maan, " Maan bete! dus baj gaye hain.. aap itnay late nahi hotay.. kya hua aaj!" Maan sighed in frustration, " Dadimaa.. please.. we've been over this..." " Aap doctor hain uska matlab nahin hain kay aap itni raat ko late ghar aayein.." said dadimaa with her arms crossed. " Dadimaa. please.. I don't want another lecture... I work so hard to make sure that the hospital runs efficiently" said Maan with frustration in his voice.
" Bete! have you thought about your life beyond the hospital!? you are what? twenty nine! its time you-" began Dadimaa. " Dadimaa! please.. not that M-word you so often talk about!" said Maan as he got up and was about to leave. " Par bete!" said Dadimaa with a frown. " No dadimaa" said Maan as he went up the stairs towards his room. Dadimaa frowned, " Kya karoon is ladke ka.. aisa kuch ho jaye jo Maan ko jeena sikha de.. phir se." She shrugged it off and head the opposite way.
Maan entered his room and shut the door behind him. His room was exactly how he wanted it to be... simple and liveable.. no girl would be here to ruin the way he liked everything... Maan knew he was arrogant, sarcastic and very proud... who wouldnt... after owning all locations of Sanjeevani's all across India. He took off his tie and shirt and threw it on the bed.. he didn't care if he was being messy for today. Something was bothering him. He sat down on the large french window in his room and he looked at the calm night sky. The stars were shining and the moon was out... shining into his window.. " Why did Geet get so startled when I came in? and what was that little monitor thing for?" thought Maan.
Maan was lost in his thoughts until he heard his phone beep on his bed. He turned around and picked it up to read a text message from Geet. Speak of the Angel thought Maan. Maan read the message which said:, " Sorry to bother you Dr. Khurana, but I have held a dinner for all senior doctors this weekend and I hope you can come! Please do tell me if you wish to come!- Dr. Geet".
Maan shut his phone and threw it on the bed again... he sighed, " I don't go to these dinners...too bad..." He went back to his place on the window ledge and he thought about the text message... " Should I go? Geet invited me so nicely... but I never go to these things... a waste of time and money....but... " thought Maan. Maan thought about it once more and he went over to his bed and picked up his phone and texted, " It's alright Dr. Geet, I would like to come... thankyou for inviting me... please tell me the time,date and place". He sent the message and threw his phone on the bed again and went into the washroom to wash his face.
Geet on the other hand was sitting on the couch beside Meera who had her eyes glued to the TV. " Meera... can you stop watching these stupid serials for once in your life?" said Geet as she rolled her eyes. " Shh.. its the last episode of Miley jab hum tum.." said Meera as she drank her tea without once taking her attention away from the TV. " Meera! you've watched it.. oh I dont know... 34554434 times already?" said Geet as she sipped at her green tea. " Shutup yaar.. dekhne de.. agar tujhe interest nahi hai to soo jaa.." said Meera. " No its okay.. waisay I don't get time with my lovely cousin at all" said Geet with a smile.
" Oh shutup.. " said Meera rolling her eyes. Just then, Geet got a text message and she opened the message. It was from Maan... and he was confirming that he was coming. Meera looked over to Geet's phone which said Dr. Khurana on it.. She smirked, " Anddddd why is Dr. Khurana messaging you so late at night". " Shutup yaar... he's confirming the dinner for senior doctors at sanjeevani" said Geet as she rolled her eeyes.. " Mhmmm.." said Meera. Geet rolled her eyes and she put down her phone and watched the last episode of Miley jab hum tum again... It was an happy ending. Geet wished she could see one in real life...
