hey guys!!
So had my first day of classes after 2 months- Man, third year is gonna be heavy!! But very interesting...
Anyways..I won't delay any longer and write :)
They went back home and Maan told Geet outside their rooms-
Maan- I will go get changed.
Geet- okay.
He went inside..smiling..changed fast, knocked and entered Geet's room..
Geet had changed as well
Geet- So...
Maan- hmm..
Maan- Geet...I was thinking..your temperature is normal right?
Geet- Yes.
Maan- then..I can go sleep in my own room..
Geet didn't want him to go..but she realised it was stupid to ask him to stay considering they weren't..She blushed at the thought and then..
Geet- okay then. I 'm pretty tired..And we have office tomorrow..so Goodnight then
Maan was thinking..
She is asking me to go...and here I thought we made headway...
Fine..I have patience..
Geet- uh..Maan...
MAan- Jaa raha hoon..good night
He leaves..
Geet tries really hard to sleep and finally manages to in the wee hours of the morning..leading to her waking up late and finding out that MAan had already departed for office.
Geet followed suit...in a really bad mood.
She thought
Geet- Ek toh he didn't even try to stay last night . It's because of him that I couldn't sleep..why did he have to come into my bed those previous nights when I was sleeping..Now I'm used to him and now he doesn't even try to convince me to stay..hmph. ab office mein he will scold me..
she didn't notice his missed calls because her phone was on silent.
MAan was pacing up and down in his office...really worried but not wanting to call dadi and asking..
Remembering an old thing said to him by Geet once when they were stuck in the conference room..he abruptly stopped pacing.
Maan- Yeh Geet bhi na..I don't know when she will start answering the phone. When she answers, it's either to scold me...or abuse me..never letting me speak..and now..not even picking up. I wonder if she's okay..she didn't get up? or is she sick? or is she angry with me..
PRetty much sick with worry, he didn't notice Sasha's knock and she came in anyways
Sasha- MK..those files that you wanted..
Maan- Sasha..Ek minute.. Has Geet come in yet?
Sasha- NO MK.. Did you have a lovers' tiff? I don't think she should have taken it off on office work..there's really a lot to do and whenever Mr Chopra calls, he asks for Geet.. I wonder why everytime...
MAan- SASHA..Apni hadd mein raho. I asked you a simple question. I will not tolerate any comments. I am not going to take this file now. LEt her come and send her in to me. Immediately..understand?
These lines were said in a crisp and intimidating tone hiding anger
Sasha said okay and left the office troubled
She thought- I wonder why he is so angry..Obviously he cannot be angry at HER...Somehow things that should anger him about her make him act crazy, and those that shouldn't..whatever. I'm not going to risk his anger. Ek baat toh hai..even if she doesn't have anything..she does have lots of courage to face Maan in all his moods..Even I can compliment her on that.
Geet came in running, pretty much panting..and almost crashed into Sasha.
Sasha- Geet..MK is calling you..in his cabin.. NOW and here..take this file and give it to him..it seems you're the only one that exists
Geet quietly took the file and went into the office, with her face red with exertion
Geet- May I come in?
MAan- hmm..
Geet- I'm sorry..
Maan(at the same time)- WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN???
Geet- woh..Maan..I mean Sir..woh main..I got late this morning
Maan- Geet..I have given you a phone so that you can call me if there is some problem..then why didn't you?
Geet- it didn't cross my mind okay.Sorry..will you kill me if i don't pick up your call??!!
She was really angry and Maan always raised her temper so easily
Maan- No Geet. I will probably give my self a heart-attack worrying about you.
Geet- 😲 I'm sorry. Phone was on silent..I just noticed.
and here is the file
She starts to leave.
Maan- Geet..Ek minute. Why were you late?
Geet- Har baat batani zaroori nahi hai aapko
MAan- ohh..FINE. You may leave now.
Geet- personal baatein let's not bring into office. I'm your secretary only.
Maan- Mrs Geet Maan Singh Khurana(loud voice)...(lowers voice..v gentle) you have never been only my secretary...
Geet blushes and leaves...
Over the next two hours..Maan tries to bring his mind back to work..but it's Geet his mind keeps coming back to...
He thinks
Maan- C'mon Maan. Stop it. Just because she's your wife doesn't mean you cannot work. Now what are you going to do..bring her into your cabin?!
Waise..I do have space..but NO, of course not..how can I even think of something like that..Maan..please..concentrate on work..
He's finally able to ..solution being he keeps calling Geet for small small things- hides files and then asks Geet to look for them, says he wants coffee, and then finally goes with her to 'teach' her how to make it..
Geet- I wonder aaj Maan ko ho kya gaya hai..He cannot find things sitting in front of him..and now he is going to teach me how to make coffee..I think he's lost it.
Maan comes from behind Geet, who's standing near the coffee machine waiting for him. Very sensitive to his nearness..she catches her breath ...when MAan puts his hands around Geet and comes closer...
Geet- M-M-Maan..Aap yeh kya kar rahe hain?
Maan- hmm...coffee bana raha hoon..
Geet- yeh kaunsi coffee hai Maan...
Maan- hmm...shhh..
Geet- ...Koi aa jaayega...
MAan- So what?
They suddenly hear Sasha yelling at Pinky for something and Maan gets startled..hot coffee burns Geet's hand...
Geet- oww....
She had barely time to think that oww..when Maan had taken her hands in his..and started blowing on them..
He took her immediately to the water and gently washed her hands..entwined in his..caressing, extremely gentle..
MAan- Geet..I'm..I'm sorry...did u get hurt very bad..Oh my God..I am going to KILL SASHA for speaking so loudly..we should have a new rule about no screaming...especially where she is concerned...
He was blabbering and Geet finally said
Geet- MAan...It's okay..Anyways, it's a kind of revenge for you remember..I'm fine. And if you put a keep silent board in the office..how are you going to live..you're the champion of all shouters, aren't you?
MAan- Geet...Chup karo.. I will not let this happen again..
Geet, seeing Maan actually blamed himself for this clumsiness..laughed gently and said
Geet- Maan..aap toh mere rang mein rangte jaa rahe hain..
MAan(with a twinkle in his eye)- haan Geet..Exactly.
They realise after an eye-lock that they're in the office pantry and should now leave...
Maan- Geet..Samajh li coffee kaise banti hai..
Geet(smiling)- Ji Sir..YOu go...I'll bring you good coffee now..after all, I have learnt from THe MAan Singh Khurana...
Maan- Okay, JAldi Aana..MRs Geet Maan Singh Khurana...
Okay that's it guys...sorry if you found it short..
