maan: tum aaona mere saath...patha chalega...
having said these words slid his hand around her waist and walked outside the cottage along with her...
maan: geet ankhe bandh karlo
geet smiled and did what maan said...
maan kept his hands over geet shoulders and walked along with her upto some distance...then he moved away from geet...
geet: maan..mein ankhe kholu...
there was no answer...
geet: maan...maan...mein ankhe kholu
still there was no answer...
geet: ...maan...maan...patha nahi kaha gaya honge?
geet finally opened her eyes...she stood speechless...she saw before her a beautiful sunset...maan slowly came from behind and hugged her...both enjoyed the sunset...
maan rested his head over geet's lap...
both sat in the beach enjoying the evening breeze...maan closed his eyes and was relaxing on geet's lap...geet smiled thinking about her married life ...especially the things maan did for her...she blushed and thanked god for giving a husband like maan...she caressed his forehead...suddenly she got struck with one thought in her mind...that thought created a turmoil in her...she wanted to ask maan that question and clarify all her insecurities and fears...
geet: maan...aapse ek baath poochu?
maan still closing his eyes replied "hmmm"
geet: maan...agar meri jagah koi aur ladki hothi...tab bhi aap unse aisa hi pyaar kiye honge?
maan who was enjoying the evening breeze got up suddenly with geet's question
maan: yeh kaunsa paagal sawaal hey? tumhare jagah koi aur kaise hosaktha hey?
geet: maan...mera kehne ka matlab yeh hey ki...agar aap ki shaadi kisi aur ke saath hua hothi tho..aap usko bhi aisa hi shayad pyaar karthe honge na...
maan: tumhe aur koyi baath nahi mila baath karne keliye?
geet got angry as she was expecting an assuring answer from maan
geet: aap ne mera sawal ka jawaab diya nahi...
maan: mujhe nahi dena hey jawaab uss sawal ka..kyunki...woh bilkul bakwaas sawal hey...ab chalo...andher...
having said these words he got up...and pulled geet's arm to make her stand...geet snapped maan's hand away...in anger
geet: hamari baath puri hone ki baad hi hum andher chalenge...
maan got irritated...he was irritated because he himself does not know the answer to the question...
maan: geet...tumhe 5 min ka waqt de raha hu...agar uss 5 min mein mere saath nahi aaya...tho uske baad jo bhi hoga...uska jimmedhar mein nahi hu...
geet got angry ...she turned her face and started walking towards the sea...maan could not take it anymore..he forcibly took geet in his arms and moved towards cottage...geet struggled to get free from maan's grip...
geet: maan..chodiye mujhe...mein andher nahi aaongi...
but maan didn't listen to geet...he remained silent...he carried geet to their room and kept her on the bed...geet lied down on the bed turning her face away from maan...,
maan although got irritated...he tried to normalize the situation...maan slowly passed his hand over geet's back...seductively saying "geet"...for a moment geet was lost under his spell ...but soon her anger overtook ...she turned back and snapped away maan's hand...
geet: meri uper haath math lagayiye...
said these words she again turned away from maan...maan smiled...he got onto bed...moved closer to geet...hugged her nad started kissing her cheek..." gusse mein na tum bahuth sundhar lagthi ho"
geet pushed maan away and stood up from the bed...saying..."mein ne kaha na aapse mere uper haath math lagayiyye" in anger...
maan got furious...
maan: tumhari problem kya hey geet...? kyu faltoo ki sawaal pooch kar mere aur tumhara mood spoil kar rahe ho?
geet: yeh faltoo ke sawaal nahi hey maan...humara love marraige nahi hey...hum log shaadhi ke baad ek doosre ko chahne lage...agar ussi shaadhi aapko kisi aur ke saath hua hotha...tho aap unse bhi aise...hi...
she stopped in the middle...she couldnot even imagine others in her place...
maan: kyu ruk gayi beech main..pura karo...
geet stood silent...
maan: chup kyu hogayi...bolo..kya bolna hey...
geet: mujhe jo poochna tha mein pooch chuki hu...ab iska jawaab aap hi dena hey
maan: tumhe patha nahi iska jawab
geet: agar patha hotha tho...aapse kyu poochtha hu?
maan's anger reached heights this time...
maan: agar mein wahi baath tumse poocha tho...tum kya jawab dhogi geet...
geet turned her face away from maan..
maan: bolo geet...jab tumhara shaadhi kisi aur ke saath hua hotha kya tum bhi uske saath aise hi pyaar karthi rahegi ...
maan's heart shattered when he said those words...he couldnot think of another person in geet's life even in his imagination also...
geet looked at maan with tears in her eyes...those tears ripped maan's heart...
both of them don't have an answer to that question...that whole night there was silence between them...none of them spoke a word to other...geet laid on the bed...whereas maan went downstairs and slept on the couch...both were awake whole night thinking about one another...they want to be with each other so badly..but that one question was standing like a wall between them...they kept questioning themselves the same question...
maan: (monologue)geet...tumne yeh kaisa sawal poocha hey...jiska mere paas koi jawab nahi hey...kya bathakar samajao tujhe...kaise manao mein tujhe...tumhe apni bahon mein rakhne ka mann kar raha hey ab...kasie mushkil mein daldhiya mujhe...ab kya kehkar samjao tujhe
Slowly geet's anger started to vanish...she started realizing her foolishness in her question...
geet:(monologue): jo sawal maan ne poocha..uska jawab nahi hey mere paas...maan ka bhi yahi haal hoga na...aise sawal ko koi bhi kya jawaab dhenge...maan sahi kehraha tha...woh bilkul bakwaas sawaal tha...aur mein bina soche patha nahi..kya kya bath kiya unse...unka dil dukaya ...ab mein kya karu...kaise manao...jo bhi ho...woh mere maan hey...mere liye unse dur rehna...sirf moth hi hoga...
having said these words she got up from bed and ran downstairs to see maan...
