CHAPTER 11. MAAN TALKS TO GEET & ARNAV TEASES KHUSHI

Place - City Hospital, Chandigarh

Maan was frustrated. He did not understand what to do next. His life changed the moment the girl stepped into it. He was nearly on the verge of pulling his hair out. It had been three days since he woke in the hospital to the scream of the girl. Three days back he was coming back from a meeting. That meeting felt like eons away for Maan. Was it only three days back when he had a normal life? Maan wondered.

After talking to the Doctor on the day the girl woke him with her scream, he had called his Dadi updating her on what the Doctor had said regarding the girl. His Dadi was worried for the girl and told him to take care of him and the girl. When he had called Dr. Puri he was told that Dr. Puri was out of town for three days and could not be reached as he was in village area.

After asking the Dr. Puri's assistant to call him when the Doctor came back, Maan entered the girl's room to face a strange sight. The girl, who an hour before was screaming at the sight of him, was now blushing. She would glance at Maan and then look down blushingly. This happened few times and Maan felt disturbed. Even though he thought the girl looked cute, he realized she was not blushing because of him but because she thought he was her husband. He felt guilty for lying at her. But the resident Doctor had explained that the girl's situation was fragile and he could not and should not give her any big shocks. Hence, Maan had to keep his mouth shut and endure her shy glances and keep on feeling guilty for nearly three days. For three days, Maan, with the excuse of workload, had kept himself away from the girl. He entered her room only when she was sleeping and walked away the moment she was awake. He was not ignoring her but he also did not know how to act around her.

Maan's frustration did not end even after three days. Instead it built up with the call from Dr. Puri. When Maan explained the whole situation including the lie, Dr. Puri had absolutely refused him from telling the girl the truth. When Maan had nearly pleaded with him, he had replied, "Beta, Tell me, if you had forgotten your identity and someone told you that you are Maan Singh Khurana and later told you that they had lied and they did not who you are and you are not even related to them how would you feel?" Maan was stumped. "But if I did not act like her husband she might feel ignored and then there is also the fact that married couple have sexual relationship, how can I cross my limits?" Maan thought but due to embarrassment did not speak out loud.

It was nearly afternoon and now after three days of being confused and frustrated Maan felt like breaking some things just to bring relief. The resident Doctor had informed him that he can take his wife home. Wife! Maan thought in disgust. He had lied first time in his life to save a girl and the lie had trapped him in his own web. This was the reason Maan refused to lie and did not tolerate liars. But then what could he have done? Maan questioned himself. He could not have let the girl die especially when it was his fault that she was in such a critical situation. If he had listened to her and taken her to Delhi, she would have been safe by now.

Maan had been ignoring all the phone calls for three days except the calls of his Dadima who asked about the girl's situation and the calls of Dev who would call him for office purposes. He had even ignored Anjali and Arnav's calls. He could hide his emotions very well from Dev but not from the brother-sister duo. He did not want to tell them his situation without the solution at hand. But today Maan wanted a solution badly. His heart and mind were in total turmoil and wanted release. So, when his phone rang he picked it up without looking at the caller-id. A sweet voice came from the phone, "Beta, sab theek toh haina?" That did it. His Dadima's sweet and soothing voice brought his turmoil to the front and out of his mouth in the form of words. He told her about his guilt and his reason for the guilt. He told her what Dr. Puri had said regarding the girl's mental state. He told her how he did not know what explanation he should give to the girl. He also told her regarding his thoughts of crossing his limits and also how the girl had already started seeing him as her husband. Maan emptied his frustration out and felt peace. Dadima mulled over the situation and suddenly an idea came to her head. She told Maan about her idea. Maan was shocked. How can he say another lie? He thought. But his Dadima's idea was a perfect solution. He called up Dr. Puri who also approved the idea after some discussion.

Sonia Khurana was confused as to what to do or what to say. It's been three days since she had woken up to a man sitting in a chair with his head lying on the bed close to her head. Sonia still felt embarrassed at how she had screamed at her husband. Her husband! She thought blushingly. After he had come back later to the room she had taken a good look at him and realized one thing; he was handsome. She did not know what kind of person she was and what kind of life she had lead before this accident but one thing was for sure. She had good taste. If she chose such a dashing husband then her taste was really impeccable. She felt her blush rising at her thoughts again. But she was worried. When she had asked the nurse, the nurse had told her that she was not wearing any mangalsutra or sindoor when she was admitted here. This made her wonder whether she was the modern types who did not wear her mangalsutra or sindoor. Even her name sounded modern; Sonia. But the nurse had shown her her clothes and they were quite traditional. If she was traditional where was her mangalsutra? And if she was modern then why was she wearing Salwar Kameez? Then there was the fact that she had scars on her hands and body. Was her husband an abuser? Sonia shrank back in fear. He did have scary eyes, she thought. No, he did not seem the type. Sonia tried to assure herself. She also was worried with the fact that she did not know how she had landed here with such a gash on her head that it resulted into her memory loss. There was also the fact that she felt her name Sonia was not suiting her. As if it was not her name.

Sonia was also confused and worried because of Maan. She was confused by his behaviour. The Nurse had told her that her husband was always by her side when she slept. Then why was he not with her when she was awake? Sonia thought. Why did he not speak to her? Sonia questioned herself. She felt ignored and hurt by his behaviour. But what worried her was that the Nurse had told her that she was to be discharged. The Doctor was sure that she would be fit and fine in a week. This worried Sonia because after a week Maan will expect wifely duties from her. She would have to sleep with him. And Sonia did not think she would be ready for that especially with a stranger. She wanted to know him more before taking that step. She wanted to understand him, his likes, dislikes etc. before moving forward. Who knows by then she would get her memory back. The Doctor had told her that she would get her memory back soon, Sonia assured herself. As these doubts and thoughts swirled her mind, she did not notice Maan entering her room. By the time she noticed, Maan was sitting beside her in the chair. His face looked apprehensive as if he was to tell her something which might shock her. She quietly steadied herself in her mind and gave him her full attention.

Place - Jha couple Room, Shantivan, Delhi

Arnav walked into his Di's room where she was knitting socks for her baby. Inbetween she would pat her baby bump and grin foolishly. Arnav's expression softened as he stared at her but he hardened his expression as he remembered the reason he came to talk to her. "Di?", Arnav called and Anjali came out of her baby thoughts and looked at Arnav. She smiled and gestured him to come and sit beside her. The moment Arnav sat beside her, Anjali spoke, "Achha hua aap khud hi aagaye Chote. Humein aapse ek jaroori baat karni hain." Arnav suddenly went stiff. Was everything alright? Was the baby alright? Arnav thought worriedly. Anjali noticed his expression and hurriedly assured him. "Hum theek hain, Chote. Humein kuch nahi hua hai. Who bas hum Maan Saab ke baare mein soch rahe the. Woh humare phone hi nahi utha rahe hain. Dadima se baat ki toh unhonein kaha ki sab theek hain. Toh Maan Saab phone kyun nahi utha rahe hain?" Anjali in a worried tone questioned her little brother. Maan was her best friend and classmate from school time and after being thrown out of Lucknow and being brought to Shantivan by Naani, Anjali got moral support from Maan and Khurana family. While Akash befriended Dev and Arjun, Maan became mentor and emotional supporter of Arnav. Even Anjali had gotten close to Annie and Naintara and often all three had the habit of goofing of together while shopping. The matriarchal head of both the families, Naani and Daadi had bonded over Lucknowi Jalebis and Punjabi Lassis.

"Main bhi kabse try kar raha hoon, Di, par Maan phone nahi utha raha hai. Main bhi aapse yehi poochne aaya tha ki kahin Maan ne aapko call kiya tha ya aapka phone uthaaya tha kya?" Arnav asked. When Anjali replied with a negative shake of head, Arnav noticed her worried expression. He remembered when he was 10 years and Anjali, who was two years older to him, had gone to Delhi to stay with Naani to complete her schooling there. Arnav had stayed back in Lucknow with his parents with the promise that next year he would join his sister. He remembered how his sister's letters were filled with nothing but her best friend and classmate, Maan's antics. From that time Arnav had idolized Maan and wanted to be like him. He, in his innocence, used to wish that Maan would marry his Anjali Di and he would get his idol as his Jeejaji. Arnav smiled sadly at those innocence filled days but turned his focus on his worried Di. He had to assure her or else she will worry which was not good for her health. "Di, Aap fikar mat kijiye. KC mein koi problem aaya hoga aur isliye woh pareshaan hoga. Aur aap toh jaanti hai na, Maan kabhi apne problems share nahin karta. Aur jab tak solution nahi milta woh kisise baat nahi karta." Arnav assured his sister but his sister seemed unconvinced. Arnav huffed and spoke again, "Di, ek kaam karta hoon. Main abhi KC jaata hoon aur aapke Maan Saab se milta hoon. Theek hain?" Anjali smiled cutely and hugged him. Arnav hugged her back and mentally cursed Maan for making his Di worry and making him travel to end of the city where KC was located. He mentally calculated all the meetings he had to reschedule and whom all he had to call.

Place - Khurana Constructions

Pinky was sitting on the chair and eating chips when she noticed a sight that made her drool. Chota DD incoming, she thought as Arnav Singh Raizada, MK Sir's best friend entered the KC premises and marched directly to Maan's cabin. DD which meant Dhak-Dhak was the name kept by office staff for Maan and Chota DD which meant Chota Dhak-Dhak was the name kept for Arnav as MSK was voted as hotter than ASR in a staff poll. Pinky ran behind him trying to stop him; afterall she had to tell him MK Sir was still out of station. She was still running behind him when suddenly she noticed someone crash into him. She glanced at the human missile and noticed that she was actually a girl, the sweet new secretary of MK Sir, Khushi, who had befriended her and Adi Sir in one day. Pinky closed her eyes. She did not wish to see her new friend being scolded and told to GET OUT by ASR. Bye Bye Khushi!, thought Pinky. It was nice meeting you. Ho sake toh milte rehna! After few seconds of keeping her eyes closed, Pinky noticed an unnatural silence. Why was ASR not shouting at Khushi? She slowly opened her left eye and the sight she saw left her eyes and mouth wide open. She slowly whispered, "ASR Sir, Aap theek toh hain?"

Arnav entered KC in a foul mood. He had to call many of his clients and cancel or postpone many of his meetings. He was so going to give Maan a good lecture for worrying him and his Di. Arnav entered the office and marched towards Maan' cabin fumingly when he crashed into a human missile. The girl was about to fall down when his arms caught her and pulled her. She fell in his arms and held his shirt tightly in her fists and raised her eyes. Arnav, already fuming, was about to blast her when she raised her face and looked into his eyes. It was his Afreen, Arnav thought. Arnav stared at her in trance not noticing that his Afreen was actually struggling in his arms. Suddenly somebody whispered from behind, "ASR Sir, Aap theek toh hain?" Arnav came out his trance and released the girl. Khushi took few steps back and looked at him with shock on her face. Arnav smirked at her reaction, delighted to meet her, spoke, "Hello Afreen!" The girl's eyes widened to impossible limits but soon the shock faded to anger and she glared at him, "Humaara naam Khushi hai, Khushi Kumari Gupta! Samjhe aap!", she practically shouted at him.

The whole office stared at her wide eyed. They could not believe that she back answered ASR. Many of them, including Adi and Pinky, started praying for the well being of the girl after ASR was done blasting her. Sasha, who had come out of her cabin after noticing the commotion, shook her head. Poor girl! No one can save her now! Sasha thought.

But the whole office was more shocked when ASR instead of shouting or telling her to get out smiled at her. "Duniya ke liye tum Khushi ho, magar mere liye tum Afreen ho!", he declared as he took a step ahead to which Khushi took two steps back. Few members of staff who knew Urdu, including Khushi, understood that ASR was calling Khushi beautiful. Khushi narrowed her eyes in anger. He followed her here also. And how dare he call her Afreen! Oh! She was going to kill him. She was about to ask him how he was here when Sasha spoke up. Sasha knew that ASR came to KC only when he wanted to meet Maan. She told him that MK was not in Delhi. He was stuck in a problem at Chandigarh and no one knew when he would be back.

Arnav cursed mentally. Maan was stuck in Chandigarh means he was stuck in professional problem not a personal one. So Arnav was of no help there. He was the Prince of Fashion World while Maan was the Construction King. They were from separate fields. But at least Maan could have picked up his and Di's calls right! Arnav thought fumingly. He glanced around and noticed that Khushi was nowhere to be seen. While he was cursing she had actually sneaked away. Suddenly Arnav realized that this trip was not a total waste! He may have not met Maan but he had met his Afreen. Now he can meet her anytime without letting her know that he was related to Akash. He had not slept properly for three days as he wondered how he would find an excuse to meet her without letting her know his relation to Akash or his Di. Now he knew what he had to do. Arnav smirked. Anyone seeing his smirk would have been a little bit scared.

Khushi fumed. She had run away when the Rakshas was talking to Sasha Ma'am. She could not believe he was here. He must be Maan Sir's client, Khushi thought. That means he would come and go at anytime. Haiye Devi Maiyya! Khushi slammed her forehead to the desk. But she shook her head and straightened her posture. She would not let him win! No! Never! She will show him that she was not scared of him, Khushi thought determinedly. To boost her confidence, she spoke to herself outloud, "Dar mat, Khushi! Woh tumhara kuch nahi bigaad sakta hai. Devi Maiyya haina tumhare saath. Unpe bharosa rakh samjhi! Aur waise bhi humaari koi galti hi nahi to hum kyon dare. Dare to woh…. Kya naam tha unka? Haan, Ae Es Aar. Kaisa naam hai? Kuch samajh nahi aata. Isse achha naam toh Rakshas hi tha. Rakshas kahin ka." Khushi soon forgot her Rakshas and went back to her work.

Arnav smirked as he shut his phone. When called, his brother Akash was shocked. Arnav could understand Akash's reaction. Afterall Arnav had told him to cancel all the meetings in the evening or handle it himself. Arnav smiled to himself. Afreen! Tayyaar ho jaao mujhse bachne ke liye! Arnav thought.

Place – City Hospital, Chandigarh

Maan smiled at girl tenderly preparing himself. He took a deep breath and spoke, "Main tumse kuch kehna chahta hoon Sonia." The girl gave him her full attention. "Maine Doctor se jhoot kaha tha. Tum meri patni nahi ho." The girl glanced at him with wide eyes full of confusion. "Matlab?" she whispered. "Matlab ki hum dono ek doosre se pyaar karte the par humaari Sagaai aur shaadi honi baaki hai. Tumhein jab main yahaan laaya tha tab tumhari haalat bahut kharab thi. Tumhein jaldi hi admit karna tha warna main tumhein kho deta. Tumhara is duniya mein koi nahi aur Doctor ko admission form par rishtedaar ke sign chaahiye the isliye maine pati ke jagah par apna naam likh diya. Waise bhi kuch mahinon mein tum aur main Shaadi ke bandhan mein bandhne hi waale the. Isliye Mujhe jhoot bolna pada", Maan explained. This was Daadi's plan to rescue him from the mess of marriage. Daadi claimed that this way the girl will have an identity and family to look forward and her brain will not be affected and even Maan will not be questioned why he was not asserting his marital rights. They would keep on postponing the engagement till she got her memory back. Dr. Puri also agreed to this plan. Daadi had even made a whole cooked up story on how they met and fell in love so that when the girl questioned him Maan could answer properly. She had even made up a fake name for the girl, Sonia Choudhary, lovingly known as Soni. Daadi promised him that she would brief Naintara and Dev regarding the lie and the girl by the time Maan and Soni reached Delhi. Maan was right! His Dadima should have been theatre actress. One day he will actually ask her if she wanted to try a hand at theatre. "Main tumhara Discharge papers ready karwata hoon tab tak tum tayyaar ho jaao." Maan told her and he walked away.

Relief! That's what Sonia felt after hearing Maan's words. She was happy that she would not have to sleep with a stranger. She would not have to share a room with someone she barely knew. They were to get married later on. She was sure by then she would understand Maan and maybe love him also! After dressing up she looked at her clothes. No wonder she had no mangalsutra! She was not married at all! How can there be a mangalsutra? Sonia thought giddily. She felt a very heavy burden lift from her shoulders. But if not Khurana what was her real name? And what had happened to her that she landed in a hospital? No Problem. Sonia shrugged her shoulders. She will ask Maan about it. She waited on the bed for Maan to come and take her with him.

P.S. Total 3541 words! Phew! Sabse longest chapter till now! How was it?

P.P.S Saw the new promo of Drashti's new serial Madhubala. Her look was so similar to Geet's look. Infact if she had removed the nose piercing and the bindi she would have looked just like she looked in Geet. She reminded me of Geet and I have started missing GHSP again. I have already stopped watching Punar Vivaah because Gurmeet's look and character is too similar to MSK. I don't think I can watch Madhubala without missing GHSP. When will the pain lessen, guys?
