Maan: what fun??? Tell me properly…
Geet: sob…..since our sections were changed in grade 6, many boys and girls have come to my class from other sections….sob….and they are teasing me…and calling me MOTI!!! Wwwaaahhh….
X X X X X X X X X
Maan:….sweetu, what happened?? Did you do as I told you to?
Geet (happily): ohh yeah I did….I did!!! I punched that boy….am sooo happy!!!
Maan: yay…told ya….our plan will work. Now they'll never tease you MOTI again!
Geet: yeah MK….i did as you has asked me to…and punched that right right on his nose! He'd never dare tease anyone ever again. And teachers…they won't believe him even if he complained!
Maan: Good…good….very good…..see it works doesn't it? You were getting scared for no reason! Fighting back without crying is so satisfactory!
Geet (thoughtfully): umm….yes MK….whenever am in any problem…you'll be there for me right??
Maan: ohh yeah of course Sweetu! I'll be there whenever you'll need me….promise!
X X X X X X X X X
Maan:…….uh oh!!! Why are you crying Sweetu???
Geet:…….
Maan could hear her crying bitterly over something. He'd been asking her the reason for the past 15 mins but she was nowhere near listening…she was crying and crying and crying!!!
Maan: Sweetu…what happened??? And yeah…stop crying!
Geet still didn't say anything and kept on crying.
Maan (irritated): Sweetu….for god's sake please stop crying and tell me what is it?? Did someone tell you something?
Geet:…………………………
Maan (shouting): CHUP…BILKUL CHUP!
Geet stopped her wailing immediately but she couldn't stop sobbing.
Maan: *sigh*..phew..ab theek se batao what happened?
Geet: wo…me….wo….sob…aapko…..
Maan found her struggling for words!
He wondered what happened to her that she is stuggling to say it!!!
Maan: aahaan…..batao…go on!
Geet: wo…..mein…pe….pe……
Maan: uff….kya tabse mein…mein…pe…pe…kar rakha hai! Arrey speak na!
Geet: uff MK…ab yeh mein aapko kaise bataoon?
Maan (innocently): apne muh se….aur kaise?
Geet: aahhh…..MK stop kidding.
Maan: then say na why were you crying?
Geet couldn't find words to say what actually had happened to her. So she tried a different way!
Geet: wo….mera….wo…..tu…tummy ache kar raha hai!
Maan (surprised): what???? Itni choti si baat and you are crying like anything!! Gosh…..you have really turned into a typical Indian girl…crying over little things! Did you eat something wrong?
Geet: umm…nahi
Maan: did you eat some roadside food…wait…what was that you were telling the last time….ummm….ohh yeah something called golgappe..or so??
Geet (sadly): naa ….
Maan: then what happened?
Geet (shying): wo…Mk….i…had my pe…pe…periods yesterday for the first time na…that's why!!!
She was all red while saying this!
Kawaii *embarrassed* yeh Sweetu ko ab yahi bolna tha out of all things!!!☺️
Maan (confused): what??? Yeh periods kya hota hai?? Never heard of it…..school me bhi not yet taught!!!
Now that question of his left geet bright red with embarrassment!
Maan: tell me…am waiting Sweetu!!! What is periods??? Something like periods in school kya???
Geet (blushing): wo….wo….na its not related to school…it happens every month…
Maan (interfering): what????? Your tummy is gonna hurt every month???
Geet: umm..yeah…yes I guess!
Maan (wide eyes): really??? Will it happen to me also?
Geet (embarrassed): ohh nahi….it happens only to girls!!! You ask too many questions MK…am keeping..BYE!
And she cut the call unable to bear the embarrassment anymore!
X X X X X X X X X
Maan: ohhh God… Sweetu…. sweetu…Sweetu….. sweetu…Sweetu!!!! am sooo happy today! Yay…….
Geet (cheerfully): really?? Even am very very very happy today!!! You know today…….
Maan (cutting in between): no..no…I'll say 1st…I'll say 1st!!!
Geet (smiling): okay baba…say!
Maan (excitedly): ohh Sweetu…I've been selected for the basketball team…that too in the only team of our Middle School! Awww….am sooo sooo sooo happy!!!
Geet: congratulations and celebrations MK…yippie!
Both were dancing in their respective rooms!
Geet: yeah MK…I was telling….
Maan (cutting in): ..and you know what….the selection jury…god..they were so strict….
Geet: ohh but you are selected na…that is what matters the most..you've been working so hard for that..i know! And yeah…I was saying that to…..
Maan: ….awww Sweetu you should have seen my half court and full court too….they were just so perfect!
Geet: ohh good….i knew you'll do it.
Maan: thanks Sweetu…I was really nervous at first…but I knew I could do it!
Kawaii *thinking*….is this THE GREAT MSK speaking???😳
Geet: aahan…I've full faith on you….achcha I wanted to say that I pu…..
Maan: achcha Sweetu need to go now…..friends are waiting outside for a treat..bye.
And he kept the phone before geet could say anything and ran off! Geet stood there with the phone still on her ears…she couldn't say what she wanted to. Somewhere it felt bad!
Geet (sadly to herself): ohh MK….i wanted to say that they teased me again so I, instead of crying, punched another guy! His nose was bleeding….i've become strong like you said!!!
She sadly kept the phone on the receiver, went to her room and lied down on bed…she was sad….Mk didn't even let her speak today!!! But wait…..what was she sad for? Her MK had made it to the basketball team successfully….so there are no reason to be sad…and as for her….she couldn't be all so selfish making MK hear out only her…she thought! She instantly became happy and slept off!
Kawaii *wonders* did this incident leave any scar on her heart?😕
X X X X X X X X X
After 2 months or so…..
Again Maan found her Sweetu crying her eyes out on the phone! He tried to calm her but she wasn't listening! Finally he got irritated and shouted!
Maan: CHUP….BILKUL CHUP! How many times do I have to tell you that stop crying over stupid things and fight back? Can't you understand?
Geet shut up instantly but she couldn't stop sobbing!
Maan (irritated): uff…..now say what happened!
Kawaii *wonders*…now that was rude!🤔
Geet: sob…am leaving India!
Maan: umm……you are coming back to me na!!!
Geet: sob…no MK…am leaving for Japan!
Maan (surprised): ahh what?? Japan??? But why? Its only been a year in India right?
Geet: sob….yeah….but papa….he had some alliance deal with an MNC there….so we have to go there!
Now geet was sad……Maan was not!
Maan (coldly): so…whats the big deal in that? we are in contact with each other through phone calls here…same will be in Japan!
Geet was really shocked after hearing those words…coming from him…her MK!!! She was in tears now!
Geet: but MK…..my friends here…..Meera…and others????
Maan: why do you bother? When you left London, you were not so worried about Taylor…and now what happened?
Geet felt really bad at this….she never ever expected this from her MK! Yes , she was not worried about Taylor then…Agreed! But she was too young to understand that! now she was growing up…….and Meera was a really close friend to her! Countless number of times had they had their lunch together….laughed together…she was the one who never let her feel lonely when her MK…her BEST FRIEND was not around her…and now……
Geet: but…wo…..
Maan: don't worry Sweetu…am there with you na!
Geet: ummm…promise?
Maan: yeah…pakka wala!
After keeping the phone, geet sat there thinking……she was going away from her new found friends……she was going further away from her Mk….the thought was enough for her tears to roll out!
But MK…..he was least bothered about anything…how easily he said same will be in Japan!!!! How easily he said she shouldn't bother!!!! Somewhere it hurt…hurt deep within….but her trust on her Mk did not let that pain come into her notice!
Geet (looking up): hey Babaji…mein yeh kya soch rahi hoon? Nahi nahi…Mk said na…he promised na he'd always be there for me…then I don't have to fear anything….right???
