Geet and Maan have finally finished eating and on an impulse, Geet invites the paaji family for dinner next week in their home
Maan thinks
Yeh paagal hai kya? she didn't even ask me if I want to have dinner with them..I will ask her later.At this point, it would seem very awkward.
Maan is about to get up to go pay the bill but Geet says
Geet- Arre..MAAN...Wait a bit.. Abhi Gaajar ka halwa bhi toh Khana hai
Maan- KYA??!! Geet, don't you get full EVER?
Geet- Maan...I want Gaajar ka HALWA..ABHI
Maan thinks- mya museebat hai yaar..She will eat throughout our lives together i think
Maan- okay Geet. Let's go from here. I will take you to the best place where we get Gaajar Halwa,okay?
Geet smiles an enchanting smile..so happy that Maan is listening to all her wishes
and of course that she will get to have Gaajar halwa
Maan remembered Dadi telling him about a very famous shop in Rajendra Nagar, so he took Geet there.
In the car
Geet and Maan sneaked glances at each other. Since there was a cool wind outside, Geet opened her window and at a traffic signal, a man in a black jeep kept staring into the car
Geet wondered why a man would be looking at Maan..
Geet (thought)- Let it be..I don't want to know about these city folks..chi chi chi babaji
Maan wondered why Geet is talking to herself and said
Maan- Geet...Who are you talking to?
Geet- Babaji obviously
Maan- oh..and what are you talking about?
Maan finally looks at Geet,and sees the man staring at Geet lecherously. His eyes flash fire,and his jaw sets
He comes closer to Geet so that the man can hear him and says to him
Maan- Excuse me. If you dare to look at MY wife again, I am going to take those eyes out! DO YOU understand??
Geet so thoroughly confused and the man in the jeep scared witless, stare at Maan who has a very hard time controlling his temper
Geet- Maan...woh
Maan- kya Geet..Ab don't say you could fight yourself..
Geet- I could Maan
Maan- yes..but You weren't even aware he was..You don't know..This man was looking at you with such disgusting eyes
Geet- I really didn't notice. Aur waise bhi, You don't have to get really worried about it. Remember what you said to me in Hoshiyarpur that by anyone touching me, my "pavitrata" won't be violated..well then.
Maan- GEet..woh tab ki baat thi. Plus, I have never looked at you in that way.
He added to himself-
You need to be worshipped and cherished, not stared at like some object for a man's satisfaction.
Geet got so depressed after hearing him say this without figuring out why that she didn't look at him till they reached there or talk...or even think about where he was taking her.
Maan on the other hand thought that he had once again lost his control, but then again,
"i should really get used to it..If she is around...control gets scared and hides somewhere deep inside"
I wonder what she is thinking about me.
Geet was feeling quite dizzy again, and pretty much full was about to doze off, when Maan declared that they had reached.
Geet glared at Maan with sleep-filled eyes and without saying a word, was about to get out of the car, when he stopped her.
Maan- Geet. Gaajar ka halwa..aur kuchh chahiye?
Geet- Nahi. Thank you very much . If you will sit inside, I can go and get it myself.
Maan- Geet. You look tired. Please, sit in the car and let me go.
Geet- Fine. If you're going.. get Daal ka halwa and some ras malai packed too
MAan rolled his eyes and went to get it all for her
Geet thought to herself
What an unpredictable man. Sometimes he acts like...and sometimes like he can't even bear me..Hey babaji...what am I going to do??
