PART 9
She quickly typed 'Maan Singh Khurana', jot down his address on a piece of paper, closed the computer and rushed out of the library.
Whats up with you Geet? Geet thought on her way to KM. you could even give the watch tomorrow at school, so why go to his house right now? tum tou usko theek se janto bhi nahi ho. She stopped in her track.
Haan geet tu pagal ho gayi hai kya? usne do chaar lafz hans kar baat kya karli, tu tou uske peeche peeche uske ghar jaa rahi hai. kyun? She started walking again.
Mind- Go home, Geet.
Heart- Nahi, kya pata usko ghari ki zarurat parh jaye.
Mind- tu kal marne nahi wali, kal de dena.
Heart- woh bura mane ga bhi tou dikhaye ga nahi.
Mind- jo marzi tumhari.
Heart- Yay yay yay !! :)
By the time Geet's heart and mind were fighting with each other, her legs were leading her to the khurana mansion. Her steps were stopped at the entrance of a huge gate. She gasped as someone tapped on her shoulder. She turned around to find a uniformed guy looking down at her. He flashed her a toothless smile. Geet backed off stumbling in her steps. The man gave yet another toothless grin- dont be scared bacha. what are you doing here? whom do you need to meet? he asked taking out his cordless phone.
oh, so he is the guard. she straightened herself and spoke unconfidently- Maan... was all she managed to say. she stared at the guard. he spoke for a few long seconds on the phone. after a while he cut the phone, nodded at the other guard who opened the joint gate ( smaller) in the huge gate. he gestured Geet to go in. Geet quickly entered the gate without wasting a second. it was a bad idea coming here. she concluded to herself as she glanced at front.
There were vanity vans parked in the corner and a crowd was present there carrying tools and lights, makeup and scripts.
Meanwhile, Maan was busy shooting for his advertisement. The director spoke up- Maan get ready for shot 3.
Maan nodded and ordered juice for himself- i am taking a ten mins break. the events of the day started playing in his mind while sipping his juice. The girl pinching him, then crying, then the awkward moments...
He jerked the thoughts away as he looked towards dadimaa through the mansion window. She was having tea on the porch. he then studied the whole mansion filled up with crew people, he smiled as his gaze struck on a girl. She is wearing the same clothes as that silly girl Geet. he thought. maybe i am seeing her now since she have been brave enough to pinch me. Haha. Maan thought arrogantly. he turned around as he heard the director call everyone for the shot. He resumed his shoot forgetting all about Geet.
How am i ever going to find Maan in here? she questioned herself. maybe i should go home. she turned to find the gate already closed. she slowly took baby steps towards the entrance of the mansion. she crossed the porch and noticed an elderly lady sitting there with a cup of tea. i think i should ask her about Maan.
Geet walked over to her- excuse me? the lady turned and smiled at Geet- yes?
Geet felt ease when she smiled- where can i find maan? i am his friend from school.
the woman smiled within herself- you mean college. whats your name?
Geet answered innocently- Geet.
The lady liked her simplicity- Maan is busy at the moment. you can sit and wait for him if you want. tea? she offered. Geet denied repectfully- is their a quieter place in the house?
The lady nodded and led Geet to the study.
Geet sat on the couch.
Lady- i am Savitri Devi. Maan's Dadimaa.
Geet immediately stood up- namastay auntyji.
Dadimaa nodded and sat opposite Geet- so Geet, you seem like a sweet girl. inside dadimaa couldnt believe Maan would be friends with a girl so sweet and innocent as Geet. she always took Maan as flashy types who dosent approve simplicity much.
Geet was flabbergasted by the comment- thankyou auntyji.
Dadimaa- you can call me Dadimaa.
Geet smiled- Ji dadimaa.
Dadimaa- what makes you come here?
Geet, who by now felt at ease being with dadimaa answered casually- we were detained together. maan forgot his wrist watch in the detention room so i came here to give it back to him since it looked valuable. she said in one go and quickly covered her mouth.
Dadimaa raised her eyebrow- detention?
Geet looked here and there avoiding Dadimaa's question. Dadimaa muffled her laughter. Just then Nakul entered with a tray of cookies and juice. Dadimaa- for you Geet. be comfortable.
Geet- hmm.. and ate two cookies and gulped the juice down nervously- where is maan? i need to return home early.
Dadimaa- shooting. i will be sending him here in two minutes. She left the study.
No precap guys. guys tell me is the story getting boring or am i giving too short updates? if yes, then feel free to tell me, i ll lenghten them for sure.
love, chimmy 822.
