Part 54
Geet quickly took the photos and burned them with a lighter. Her hands were shivering. Her face was sweating with anxiety.
"Baba ji why is this happening to me? Why is my past always catching up with me? Kya galti hain meri??"
As she paced her room she thought of a million thoughts. Shall I tell Maan? But how could she? What would he think? He already had made so many sacrifices for her. He went against society and gave her all the honour she could not even imagine in her dreams.
"Geet how careless could you be? Someone took your photo's and you did not notice?"
As she thought of scenario's of Maan's reaction the phone rang in the background.
Her attention got divided. She realised the phone was ringing. Wiping her face with her dupatta she picked up the phone.
"Hello.."
"Hi" she answered.
"Geet...the photo's you must have got? Geet think about it..now only you have access to these photo's but what if I send them to Maan's office? I wonder what he will think of his wife?"
Geet started getting angry. "What do you want get to the point!"
"What I want? Mmhhh you getting smart Mrs Khurana...at the moment I want about 2 lakh rupees..rest I will tell you later".
The man cut the call off. Geet began getting agitated. Sitting on her bed she began thinking how she will solve this problem.
"Babaji I cannot lie to Maan and I cannot con money out of him...what if I give the money and he blackmails me further...Geet you need to think about this properly".
As she blabbered on to herself, dadima walked in.
"Beta what are you doing up here? We need to decide what we are going to make for tonight..Maan will be coming home soon".
Geet quickly got up nervously.
"Ji dadima"
"Are you okay beta?" she touched Geet's face.
"Yes dadima I am fine just was a bit tired...nothing for you to worry about...you go I am following you".
Dadima nodded her head and walked off while Geet pulled herself together.

Maan walked in with a beautiful smile on his face.
"Hi dadima!"
"Hi beta! What's with the nice happy face today?"
"Dadima me and Adi made a billion pound deal...so our company is doing really well...Geet I am going to change please serve me food quickly..I am famished".
She nodded her head and he smiled sweetly at her. Maan took a mere 20 minutes and he was down to have his dinner. Geet served dadima and her dashing husband. Maan looked at his beautiful wife and found her lost in another world. He silently grabbed her hand. She looked up startled and he raised his eyebrows to gesture what is the matter.
She shook her head saying nothing. Maan refused to let go of her hand.
"Maan beta I know you love your wife but let go of her hand so she can eat".
Feeling embarrassed Maan let go of her hand. Geet let out a smile giggle.
Maan noticed his wife hardly spoke at the dinner table and this was unlike his wife. As he had a few calls to make he went into his study area to finish off his pending phone calls.
Geet remained in the kitchen for a long while trying to wash the dishes. Instead she was just soaking the dishes and playing around with water. Her mind was lost in the thoughts of her blackmailer.
Looking around Maan realised it had been nearly an hour and his wife had still not come upstairs. He thought maybe she was busy clearing up. He gave her another half an hour and then decided to go down to see why she was taking so long.
As he entered the kitchen he saw Geet standing over the sink. Coming near he back hugged her. She looked back in shock.
"Geet why have I employed servants if you are always going to clean up?"
"Maan you know I like doing all this...what am I suppose to do all day?"
He kissed her shoulder and rubbed his lips around the nape.
"Geet it is nearly eleven O'clock.."
"Maan let me quickly finish off..."
Before she could finish her sentence off he got hold of a towel and dried her hands.
"Maan...there is only a few dishes left.."
"Shut up!" he said in his no nonsense attitude.
Picking her up in his arms he took her upstairs.
"Tum samjti kya ho apne aap ko? I come from work so tired and you are only worried about your housework...what about your poor husband?"
She smirked at her husband's acting.
"What about my poor husband?"
They reached the stairs and she interlocked her hands around his neck.
"Don't you think you need to look after me a little more? Here I miss you all day and you're not even bothered about me".
"Maan you know that is not true...I miss you as well but I have other things to do as well".
Maan opened his bedroom and bought her inside.
"Really Geet? You hardly ring me anymore".
He placed her on the bed and kissed her cheek.
"I'm sorry I know I should but I just get distracted with all the responsibilities..Maan you know I love you".
"Mrs Khurana the way you are behaving these days does not seem like it! Anyway if you really really love me...prove it!"
Geet pulled him near and kissed his lips.
"Tum din kaho toh din keh de, tum raat kaho dohraye ge, jeene ki aas main toh jee le, marne ko kaho mar jaye ge".
Maan put his finger on her lips. "Geet don't you dare say anything about dieing..your my life...I know you love me..."
As he lowered his lips to kiss his wife. The phone rang.
"uff-fao! Why does this phone ring at the wrong time!"
Maan stretched his arm and picked up the phone.
"Hello? Hello? Hello? Go on speak then!"
He slammed the phone shut.
"What happened?" said an apprehensive Geet.
"Nothing..no one spoke..probably a prank call...ummmhhh where were we?"
As Maan got romantic again Geet pushed him off. "Maan I am not feeling well, not tonight!"
She got up and went to change. Maan looked on worried. Something was wrong with his wife and he needed to get to the bottom of this.
Precap; Maan finds out what is bothering Geet
