Suffocation MG/Arshi FF Part 14 updt. - Page 2

Part 8

Location: Khurana Constructions;

Pinky Manchanda the receptionist seated Brij in the Maan's personal lounge/cabin, where he met with guests for other than business purposes. It was more like giving Brij a token of respect. Pinky asked him to wait there as her boss would be there any minute. Brij assumed that Maan would take some time and therefore started looking around the room. Everything in the room spoke of his taste for unique and intricate art forms and creativity. Each piece emitted the status and class of Maan Singh Khurana.

Maan: Hello Mr. Handa! He greeted him with his same famous stern expression and a slight smile on his lips (barely visible).

Brij did not expect Maan to be there so soon. He was impressed by his punctuality. 👏
Brij: Hello Mr. Khurana. I hope this sudden appointment didn't really trouble your schedule for the day in any manner?

Maan smiled.
Maan: Call me Maan. We are meeting personally so we should be greeting each other in the same way too. And the schedule is not a problem Mr. Handa.

Brij: It's Brij.
He extended his hand for a handshake.

Maan: Please have a seat. Batayiye kaise aana hua?

Brij: Maan... pehle toh I am really sorry ki H&G wale project par…

Maan: don't worry about it. 😊[He said smilingly]. Main business aur personal relations mix nahi karta.

Brij: Thank you, actually aaj se Navratre shuru ho rahe hain aur humare yahan yeh 9 din bohot dhum dham se manaye jaate hain. Main bus issiliye, aaj sham ki puja ke liye aapko invite karne aaya tha.

Maan: Thanks a lot Brij ki aapne itna accha gesture diya. Mein aane ki puri koshish karunga.

Brij: Sirf aap hi nahi apni family ko bhi zaroor saath layiga.

Maan's face expressions changed. 😔
Maan: Main zaroor aaunga. [He emphasized on Main]

Brij: Alright so see you in the evening. He got up to leave.

Maan: Arre aapne toh kucch liya bhi nahi.

Brij: Nahi thank you. Actually aur bhi guests ko invite karna hai, Phir kabhi.

Maan went to see off Brij

Location: XYZ Shopping Mall;

Arnav ran into a jewelry shop to look for something special as a gift. He looked rings, earrings, neck pieces but didn't like anything. Finally he saw a diamond bracelet which had an extremely beautiful design. It had a pink Safire in the middle with diamonds around it and the band was made up of white gold. It was a special piece which was the only one available in the world. He asked the sales woman to pack it up for him.

Sales girl(SG): Sorry Sir, Yeh piece already sell ho chukka hai.

Arnav: What? Par mujhe yehi bracelet chahiye. Please mere liye bohot zaroori hai, aap arrange karwah dijiye… ah mai zaada paise dene ke liye tayyar hoon.

SG: I m sorry sir. It's against our policies. Aap chahen toh unn madam se baat kar sakte hain jinhone yeh bracelet karida hai. Who wahan kadhin hain.
She pointed towards the far end of the shop.

Arnav spotted a young woman trying on rings in her hand.

Next: Guess who did Arnav see? Please do guess and comment. Also plz plz plz press the like button. There are alot of silent readers. I would appreciate if you could atleast press the like button. Shopau

Part 9

Arnav moved forward towards the woman contemplating words in his mind. He, for some reason, wasn't sure if he'll be able to convince this woman or not. The lady wore a pink formal shirt with a black formal skirt and a pink waist band. Only her hands on which she was trying the rings on were visible to him.

Arnav: Beautiful hands.

Geet turned around. Geet: excuse me?

Arnav: I said you've got beautiful hands. But I guess I was wrong. You are beautiful.😆

Geet: Flirt kar rahe ho mere saath?

Arnav: Kamaal hogaya yaar! Genuine aadmi ki toh kadar hi nahi hai.😉 Main kya chahta hoon ki aap ek sweet si smile de dein. Ab agar kisi ko khush karna ho, toh kya use yeh bolon ki tum bohot buri lagti ho, tumhare haath King Kong ke haathon jaise mote mote hain ya phir ki tum shayad phicchle janam mein rakshason ki sena ki member hogi? Haan?👏

Geet smiled not able to ignore Arnav's cute talks. 😳
Arnav: Oh my GOD! Aapki toh smile bhi itni pyaari hai…😆

Geet: kaam kya hai?
Arnav: actually tha!
Geet: matlab?😕
Arnav: Matlab ki mai woh bracelet kharidna chahta tha jo aapne liya hai… par ab nahi chahiye.
Geet: Kyun?
Arnav: Kyunki mujhe lagta hai ki woh bracelet aap ke liye hi bana hai.
Geet: Well thank you. 😊Waise tum woh bracelet apni girlfriend ke liye lena chahte the?
Arnav: Naaa! Girlfriend ke liye toh ring li jaati hai, nahi? [He said so lifting Geets hand in which she was trying on a ring].
Geet: sorry! The ring is taken. Main yeh apni behen ke liye kharid rahi hoon.
Arnav: ahhh!!! Not again. [he said making a face]. Just kidding; Main toh waise bhi apni hone wali bhabhi ke liye gift lene aaya tha.

Geet: Oh! I am so sorry… mujhe pata nahi tha. Ah! actually tum woh bracelet le lo, I am sure unhe bohot pasand aayega.

Arnav: Don't worry dear main kucch aur le loonga. I hope you don't mind me calling you 'dear'?

Geet: Not at all. Please I insist tum unhi ke liye woh bracelet le lo.

Suddenly Geet's phone started ringing.

Geet: excuse me! It's important. I'll have to leave.
She asked the sales girl to pack the ring and started to leave.

Geet: And yeah! [She said turning] All the best for your Bhabhi.

Arnav: Thanks.

***

Location: Handa Haveli;

Everyone was busy preparing for the puja tonight when Geet entered the Haveli. She spotted Rano in the center of the hall and moved forward to ask her for Khushi.

Geet: Maa, Khushi kahan hai?

Rano: Arre tu aagayi? Jaldi ja Khushi room mein hi hai tujhe bohot miss kar rahi hai.

Geet: thik hai. [Geet saying this almost ran towards her room].

When she entered her room, she could find no one there. But Khushi's luggage was lying every where possible. Maybe she was unpacking. Geet could hear Khushi singing in the bathroom. She took out the ring from the paper bag and thought of a place to keep it. She moved toward a glass rack where all her gifts Khushi and her had exchanged in their childhood were kept. She wrote a small note for her sis and placed it next to it. As she heard the door knob clicking she hid behind the curtain.

Khushi entered wearing a white bathrobe drying her hair with the towel. Instantly her eyes went to the glass shelf and her lips formed a smile.

Geet came and hugged her from the back as they both screamed in excitement and burst into laughter. They hugged each other fondly and then sat on the bed.

Khushi: Thanks Di.
Geet: you are most welcome.
They caught up with each other for like an hour until RP came and told them to start getting ready for the Puja.

***

Location: Khurana Mansion; Time 6:00 pm;

Maan entered the mansion and went straight to Daadi's room after handing his coat and briefcase to Chameli. Chameli went to get a glass of water for him. Maan noticed that she was smiling in a weird manner at him but chose to ignore.

Maan: Good evening Daadi! He smiled and greeted his grandmother.

Maan didn't usually meet her in the evenings because rarely he used to be home at this point of time. But Daadi knew the reason today. She acted smart and looked utterly surprised to see him home.

Daadi: Arre Maan bete? Aap aaj itni jaldi aaaye?

Maan: Actually Daadi, aaj hamme hamare business associates ke yahan se navratre puja ke liye invite aaya hai, aap chalengi na mere saath?

Daadi: zaroor chalenge beta. [Self thought: aisa mauka baar baar thori na milta hai? Aur woh bhi aapke rishte ki baat karne ka].

Arnav: Sirf Daadi hi nahi Bhai main bhi chaloonga aapke saath.
Arnav said giving his cheeky smile. 😃Maan turned around to see Arnav standing next to the door.

Maan: Chhote? Tu aaj ghar par kya kar raha hai? Aur Puja mein aane ke liye maine tujhe pehle toh kabhi itna excited nahi dekha?

Maan doubted something to be wrong seeing Arnav so excited about attending a puja????
Daadi mentally slapped her forehead.

Arnav: Bhai aap hi toh kehte hain ki mujhe aur responsible banna chahiye , toh aaj mein aapke saath puja mein chaloonga. Mein abhi change karke aata hoon.

Maan: Change?😕

Arnav: Haan, aaj mein suit pehenke chaloonga!!!

Maan got a mini heart attack !!! Never in his dreams could he imagine his brother behaving this way.

Daadi: Chhote baaki sab ko bhi jaane ke bare mein bata dijiye.

Maan: koi zaroorat nahi. Aap log tayyar hojayiye, hum ek ghante mein niklenge.

Next: Awaited Moment; Maha episode: navratre puja and they all meet 😊😃😉😳❤️👏 well it all means a DHAMAKA !!!!

Location: Handa Haveli; Time: 7:30 pm;

The girls were getting ready for the navratri puja in their room when Rano came in to inform them that the guests have started coming and they should hurry up. But as she entered the room she just couldn't believe how beautiful her daughters were looking. Khushi wore a light lemon colour lehenga along with a same colour strapped blouse with a golden pom pom tied at the back. As she was still getting ready, her duppata was lying elegantly on the chair next to Geet's pink and deep purple one. Geet wore a baby pink lehenga with its border being deep purple shade. Her blouse was similar to Khushi's except that Geet's was a backless one with purple beads tied at the back. And her dupatta was double shaded (pink and deep purple. Both their hairs were open and they were looking no less than princesses.

Rano: Bohot pyaari lag rahi ho. She kissed both their foreheads.
Accha Geet tayyiyar hoke peechhe wale aangan mein jo jhoomar hai, usme diye jala dena beta.

Geet: Ji maa!

Rano: Aur jaldi karo ladkiyon! She said smilingly. Rano went back to the Hall to receive the guests.

***

Three black Mercedes Benz stopped in front of the Handa Haveli. Arnav Singh Khurana got out of the car wearing a golden colour sherwani. The sherwani didn't have any buttons and he flaunted his upper torso effortlessly. For the first time he looked more of a Khurana than just a clumsy Arnav.

He went on and stopped the bodyguard to open the door and opened it himself for his Daadi. Savitri devi wore a silver/grayish saari with a heavy pearl set. Her hands had diamond bangles on them and her fingers were adorned with heavy, unique and expensive rings.

Arnav: Daadi I cannot believe this aapne mujhe sherwani kyun pehanwayi hai? Hum sirf Bhabhi ko dekhne hi toh jaa rahe hain, iskeliye sherwani pehene ki kya zaroorat hai?

Daadi: Chotte chup kariye! Agar aapke bhai ne sun liya na toh yahi se wapas lautna parega. Aur waise bhi hum yahan navratri puja attend karne aaye hain toh aapko sherwani hi pehni chahiye. Ab andar chaliye.

As she moved forward Arnav turned around to wait for Maan. Maan came out of the car wearing a dark purple/ burgundy colour sherwani in which he looked absolutely stunning. Arnav had a huge smile on his face. Maan just failed to understand what was so funny that his bro couldn't stop smiling every time he looked at him.

Maan: Oye! What's wrong with you?😕

Arnav: Kuchh nahi bhai, aap aayina?😳 Aayiye! Maan sighed, shook his head and walked in the Haveli.

Mohinder and Rajinder along with Daarji and Brij came to welcome the Khuranas.

Daarji: Namashkar Savitriji, aap aaj humare ghar puja ke liye padhare, bohot bohot shukriya.
Daarji said smilingly.

SD(Savitri Devi): Arre Handa saab! yeh toh hamari khushkismati hai ki humme aapke yahan se nyota(invitation) mila.

SD: Yeh mera chhota pota hai Arnav. Daadi ma introduced her younger grandson standing on her left.

Arnav: Namaste! He greeted everyone and shook hands with Brij.
Daarji found this a little weird as he knew that the Khurana men were extremely well behaved. He expected Arnav to touch his feet. Savitri Devi smiled. On the contrary she couldn't expect more from Arnav. She knew that just wishing everyone cordially was also a big task for him. If not for his Bhai and Bhabhi, he wouldn't give a damn!!

SD: Aur yeh hain hamare bade pote Maan! [She looked on her right only to find nobody.]
Maan??
Chhotte, Maan kahan hain?

***

Location: Geet's Room;

Geet: Khushi, tu ready hogayi?

Khushi: Haan Di bas 5 more minutes. Please!!😃

Geet: Theek hai. Main neeche ja rahi hoon Diye aur candles jalaane, tu jaldi aajana. Aur haan woh tera kamar baandh (waist chain) rakha hai bed par usse pehen lena.

Khushi: Par Di mujhe toh woh theek se pehna hi nahi aata!

Geet: Accha theek hai main wapas aakar teri madad karti hoon. She said so left for downstairs.

***

Location: Back to the Hall;

Maan bent and touched Daarji's feet.
Maan: Namaste. He greeted everyone in an extremely warm manner.

RP and Rano along with Daljeet(Dolly- Brij's wife) joined the gathering and were introduced to the Khuranas. They were welcomed in and were seated in a little more personal and special place.

RP: Ji puja shuru hone mein abhi thora waqt hai. Aap tabtak Khucch lijiye na?

Arnav poked Daadi. Arnav: Daadi, Bhabhi ke bare mein pucchiye na?
Rano heard this and smiled. Daadi gave a look to him and signaled him to keep quiet in front of Maan.

Rano on hearing Arnav and Savitri Devi talking related to the wedding asked the Khuranas about the rest of the family members.

Rano: Ah! Ji aapke baaki family members nahi aaye?

Hearing this Maan's expressions immediately changed. Though even Arnav and Dadima didn't know what to answer, Maan just couldn't take it. He excused himself and went towards the lawn area.

Daadi covered up: woh hamare ghar mein sabhi kisi na kisi kaam se aaj busy thae. Par navratre ki puja toh attend karni hi thi toh hum teeno hi aagaye. She said so in an embarrassing smile.

Daarji tried to change the topic seeing Khuranas a bit uncomfortable. Daarji: Arre koi nahi ji, ab toh milna hota hi rahega, Kyun?

Daarji: Oye Rupinder Geet ko bulake lau bhai?
Arnav became excited hearing this.

RP: Ji Daarji!
RP and Rano were about to walk away when Arnav asked them:-
Arnav: Aunty agar aap bura na mane, toh kya mein aapke saath aasakta hoon? [He just couldn't control his excitement.]

RP looked at Daarji who nodded. RP: Haan kyun nahi! Rano Arnav ko saath le ja yeh wahin apni Bhabhi se millega. [Everyone had smile on their faces.]

She led him upstairs to Geet's room. Just then she met a guest and couldn't have left her alone. She directed Arnav towards the room and went back downstairs with the guest.

Arnav didn't quite understand how he should enter the room. He knocked on the door and entered as it wasn't locked. The room was beautiful. It had candles lit on the stands and diyas floating in rose petals. There were a lot of colorful clothes lying on the bed. He felt awkward as he didn't know how he would approach Geet. He knew Geet didn't know anything about the marriage alliance yet and was framing sentences in his mind to speak to her.

Arnav suddenly heard some noise from one of the corners. There were dividers in between so he couldn't really see what it was.

Next: Maha update continues...😉Navratri puja and Jodis meet😃😃😃 Note: Sorry guys I didn't expect this update to be so long. I have my internship going on so didn't really get time last week. But you'll get part two real soon. I'll try and update in a few hours itself. Do comment and press the like button!!!Babajiii plzzz...Jai devi maiyya😊 😊

Part 10B

PIYA MILAN RUTH AAYI

Arnav could hear the noise made by anklets and some other jewelry. He guessed that probably Geet was still getting ready and therefore he started moving back to the door to go to the hall.

Khushi: Geet Di! please yeh bandhne mein madad kardo.

Arnav froze in his tracks. "If it's not Geet in there then who is she?" He thought.

Khushi: Di please jaldi aao mujhse yeh kamar baandh sabhal nahi raha.

Arnav thought it was best to just walk out of the room right NOW. But something in him was stopping him to do so. There was a part of him which was curious enough to know more about the voice. There was an evil part of him which wanted to see her face once. His feet turned around towards the source of the voice without his consent. He moved towards the wooden divider and saw a thin girl in lemon colour lehenga-choli trying to hold on to something on her waist on the other side of the divider. And then he saw HER (Khushi yayyy!!!!). There, through the divider he saw her face in the mirror as she was admiring herself. That should have been enough, his brain told him but for some evil and unreasoned reason it wasn't. His eyes started wandering from her eyes which had some special kind of sharaarat in them to her high cheek bones towards her lips which very easily formed a smile. His eyes lowered down to her long neck which was raised high up with an attitude. She looked really cute looking at herself like that in the mirror, he thought. He smiled looking at her. She filled his heart with a different kind of happiness which he couldn't justify. But soon as his eyes lowered from her neck to her back which didn't have any cotton on, the happiness changed into a different emotion which he didn't know what to name. It was much more intense, like she was a magnet which was attracting him towards her with no end to it. There was a click of a sound which brought back from his dream world. He couldn't believe himself. How can he react in such a way towards a girl he has met for the first time? Actually he hasn't met her yet! And what the hell is he doing in this room at the first place? He couldn't recall why he was in this room. The girl had some serious effect on him.

Suddenly somebody opened the door and Arnav out of his reflexes in order to hide moved to the other side of the divider. The moment Khushi saw a man in her room her eyebrows shot up and her lips formed an O out of Shock!

Rano entered the room looking for the girls.
Rano: Geet, Khushi kahan ho tum dono? Tayiyar ho gayi kya?

Before Khushi could react to anything happening around her Arnav stopped her from speaking anything by keeping his right hand on her mouth and with the other he got hold of her right hand and held it tightly behind her back. She was shocked out of her wits.

Rano: Geet shayad Arnav ke saath hall mein chali gayi hogi. Khushi?
She shouted for her just to check if she was in the bathroom or so.

Arnav: Chup! 😳He whispered near her ear.
Khushi couldn't understand a thing what was happening. She was breathing heavy and started feeling dizzy as Arnav had his hand firmly kept over her mouth to make sure she doesn't make any noise. Her legs didn't support her body weight any longer and she rested herself completely in his arms. Just to not let herself fall, her left hand, which was holding her kamar baandh in place, grew its hold on it even tighter.

Rano: Shayad dono neeche chali gayi. She turned back and went downstairs, closing the door behind her.

Unaware of the fact that there wasn't a soul present in the room apart from theirs they both didn't move an inch. Khushi's warm breath was lying on his hand and her eyes were the most beautiful ones he had ever seen. He came out of his trance when her eyes slowly started closing, and there was a loud noise of the kamar baandh falling on the ground as her hand couldn't hold it any longer. He removed his hand from her mouth and slowly picked up the waist chain off the floor. As he got up Khushi rested her head on his shoulder and held his sherwani from her free hand. Arnav slowly left her other hand also and turned her around so that her back touched his chest and they both were standing in front of the mirror. Khushi was still unconscious. Arnav saw their reflection in the mirror and smiled thinking how complete they both looked. He slipped his hands along with the kamar baandh on to her waist and tied it just on the upper lining of the lehenga. Khushi tucked in her stomach feeling his hands on her sensitive skin. He couldn't help but smile noticing her reaction towards his slightest of the touch. He picked her up in his arms and made her lie down on the bed. He knew she wouldn't understand if she sees him around when she gets up so he quietly made his way out of the room to the Hall.

Next: Maaneet meet!!!!😊😃😳😳😳 A HOT UPDATE

Part 11

Maan (self thought): Kyun? Kyun ho raha hai yeh sab? Kya ek din bhi aisa nahi guzar sakta jab yeh zeher bharah sach mere saamne na aaye? Ek din jab yeh ghuttan (suffocation) mehsoos na ho? Aakhir meri galti kya hai?
He searched for his answers in the dark sky. It was amavasya (no moon night) and there wasn't a candle present in the backyard. He was feeling suffocated and he couldn't take it anymore. He took out a cigarette out of a pack from his pocket and looked for his lighter.

[OK Guys Maan does smoke in this FF at least for the time being.]

He found the lighter but it wasn't working. The discussion which took place inside in the Hall about his family played again and again on his mind. He was frustrated, felt humiliated and angry at his destiny for being asked the same question again and again. Out of irritation he threw the lighter on the ground.
He sighed and turned around to look for the lighter. But it was too dark. How ironical he thought, the darkness couldn't be more than what it was inside him. He came out to feel free, to be out of that suffocation. But nothing helped. Neither was there any ray of light nor a ray of hope to get him out of the suffocation.

'Click' there was a sound of the friction between the matchstick and the matchbox as Geet lighted the first candle on the huge setup candle stand. A small amount of fire lighted his world at this moment. He saw her almond eyes and her pink rosy lips. For a split second the suffocation was long lost. He could breathe. Yes! He could breathe and for the first time in years he felt as if he was alive, alive to each and every moment around him.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAaMAjtufd8&feature=fvwrel
[Guys please play this song and read the following update]

Jab jab tere paas main aaya, ik sukoon mila
Jise main tha bhoolta aaya, woh wajood mila

Maan saw her with pain in his eyes.

Jab aaye mausam gham ke, tujhe yaad kiya
Jab sehme tanha pann se, tujhe yaad kiya

He turned around as he couldn't face her anymore

Dil, sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil, yenhi ruk ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu

Geet slowly noticed somebody standing at a distance from her and moved towards him.
Aisa kyun kar hua, jaanu na main jaanu na

Maan took a deep breath in and quickly picked up his lighter from the ground.
Dil, sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil, yenhi ruk ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu

She kept moving towards him and he just froze where he was standing. He wanted to turn around and hug her. He wanted to pour out his heart and pain for her. He couldn't believe she was just on an arms distance from him and his M- shaped lips were sealed.

Jis raah pe, hai ghar tera
Aksar wahan se haan main hoon guzra
Shayad yakeen, dil mein raha
Tu mujkho mil jaaye kya pataa

He wanted to tell her who he was but thought better otherwise.
Kya hai yeh silsila, jaanu na main jaanu na
Dil, sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil, yenhi ruk ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu

He had assumed the emotions had died long ago and he was only left with a stone heart. But she made him feel vulnerable once again. He wanted to hide it from her and from himself.
Kucch bhi nahin, jab darmiyaan
Phir kyun hai dil tere hi khwaab bunta
Chaaha ki de, tujhko bhulaa
Par yeh bhi mumkin ho na saka

She stood just behind him. He could feel her every movement, even her heartbeats. He couldn't control anymore and just turned around and hugged her. His hands moved all over her cloth less back and tightened their grip around her within seconds. He dipped his head in nape of her neck and ran his long fingers through her hair.
Kya hai yeh maamla, jaanu na main jaanu na
Dil, sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil, yenhi ruk ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil, sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu

Part 12

Maan: I love you. I really love you a lot.😊😳

He clenched into her as if she was his last breath. He dig his nails into her flesh of her lower back, and dug his head further into her neck giving her open mouth kisses on her shoulder and neck.😳

She stiffened in his arms and became as hard and cold as ice. Her hands hanged on both her sides like of a dead body. She had a candle in her left hand which was burning. The wax melted and burned her skin. But still it wasn't sufficient enough to transmit any kind of warmth in her. She gritted her teeth and sealed her lips so as to stop the moan to escape.

Maan's lips travelled towards her ear and bit her ear lobe slightly. The candle wax burned further which in turn made the candle slip off Geet's hands and there was pitch black darkness which prevailed. Maan's eyes shot open and he suddenly realized her cold behavior. She not even once had even touched him back. He moved away a bit and looked into her eyes. They contained no emotion into them not even pain or hatred. They were blank, just like the darkness of his life. He left her immediately scared of the cold her. She was indifferent to him and his touch and he was pushed back into his ghuttan.

The moment he moved back, she coughed and took long breaths. She had held her breath the moment she felt his touch. She had been feeling suffocated in his arms. It was like she was again killing her self-respect just for him.

Maan: Geet?

Geet: It's okay Mr. Khurana. I understand.
She said calming herself down and smiling at him like she was taunting him.

Maan: Geet please!!! 😲He said in disbelief about her behavior towards him. But maintained his stern expression.

Geet: PLEASE WHAT?? 😡She lost her cool and almost shouted.

Geet: You really don't mean that do you? You never meant any of it. 🥺💔
She said so with a strange expression on her face, strange to him. He had never in the seven years of knowing her had seen that expression on her face. The expression of "disbelief towards him". He knew she didn't believe him from 'that' day forward.

Maan still looked at her with his stern and rude expression. Maan: I have nothing to say! 🥺
His tone had suddenly changed. It became like nothing happened between the two of them. He stood straight, his chest out with pride and nothing about him spoke like he was ashamed about any of his actions.

Geet: I beg your pardon Mr. Khurana. It was utterly my fault that I diminished your arrogance and false gentleman like behavior and expected a least of an apology from a man as self involved as you.👏👏

Location: Handa Haveli Hall; Time: 9:00 pm;

Geet entered back in the Haveli lost in her thoughts and suddenly banged into Rupinder.

RP: Puttar ki hua? Kahan thi tu? Aur itni pareshaan si kyun nazar aa rahi hai?

Geet: ah! Kucch nahi tayiji, main thori thaki hui hoon… aap log puja kar lijiye, mein apne kamre mein jaa rahin hoon.

RP: Geet puja toh kabki khatam hogayi. Mein toh tujhe kissi se milvana chahti thi issiliye bulane aayi thi. Woh Savitri Devi haina? Unhi se tujhe milana hai, aaja.

Geet: nahi Tayiji kabhi aur. Mein abhi apne kamre mein jaana chahti hoon. [Geet doesn't know that Savitri Devi is Maan's Daadi.] Geet left saying this.

Rano came up to RP and asked: Kya hua didi?

RP: Pata nahi in dono kuriyon ko ki hua hai? Ek pareshaan ghoom rahi hai aur doosri upar kamre mein so rahi hai?

Rano: So rahi hai? Khushi neeche nahi aayi?

RP: Nahi mein abhi upar gayi thi, Khushi toh bed par so rahi hai. Shayad Jet lag hoga usse.

Rano: Haan shayad, mein guests ko dekhti hoon… She said smilingly.

Location: Main Hall; Time: 9:00 p.m.

SD: Chhote, Maan kahan hain?

Arnav: Daadi, Bhai yahin kahin honge, Kyun?

SD: Sab log Maan ke bare mein puchh rahe hain, hum kya jawab dein?

Maan entered behind Daadi.
Arnav: Daadi, Bhai aagaye!!!

SD: Kahan thae aap? Puja ke waqt bhi gayab thae?

Maan: Daadi, Ghar chaliye. He said no more and turned around to leave.

SD: Maan? Kya badthamizee hai ye? Pehle aap humme yahan laaye aur ab bina kucch kahe ja rahe hain, Handas kya sochenge?

Maan: Daadi aap ko aana hai toh aayiye warna main jaa raha hoon. He left saying this.
Daadi was shocked to see Maan's such behavior. Arnav tried to sooth Daadi down.

Arnav: Daadi kucch important kaam hoga Bhai ko… Aap Bhai ke saath jaayiye, main bus thori der mein ghar aata hoon…

Daadi: Arre aap phir aaj raat kahin ja rahe hain? Nahi, aap hamare saath chaliye.

Arnav: Daadi please. Main thori der mein aata hoon.
Daadi knew there was no point. Her grandsons were stubborn as hell. She sighed and walked towards RP to let her know that they were leaving. RP let them, thinking that Geet anyways wasn't ready to meet them yet.

***

Location: Khushi's and Geet's room;

Arnav slowly entered the room making sure that nobody other than Khushi was present. He saw the beautiful angel in clad yellow ensemble sleeping peacefully on the bed. Her right hand was across her flat tummy and the left one next to her face on the pillow. He walked close to her and on reaching her bed sat next to her. He caressed her left cheek using the back of his hand. His hand without stopping travelled further down to her lips pressing them slightly with his thumb to further down her neck. Khushi swallowed in feeling his hand on her neck but held her breath in the next moment feeling his hand even further down her cleavage towards her tummy. She tugged in her stomach feeling his hands outlining the waist line making her remember her Kamar-baandh.
Her eyes snapped open, only to find herself alone in the room breathing heavily. Her hand reached the bed-side table to pick up the glass of water. She drank it all in one go.

Khushi: Aah!!! She held her head with her free hand as she felt extreme pain in it. The past two acquaintances replayed in her mind.

Flash 1: She was in his arms and he held her mouth tightly. Nothing except his beautiful eyes mattered to her….

Flash 2: The back of his hand caressed the different parts of her body…

Khushi: Was I dreaming? Par kya main bas abhi sapna dekh rahi thi? Ya phir pehle bhi? Par phir main bed par kaise so rahi hoon? Ahhh!!!
She was thinking whether she was dreaming the first episode with Arnav too. She didn't know who he was neither did she knew his name, so why was she dreaming about a stranger? That too dreams which she could never even think of?

The door snapped open which made Khushi jump as if she got caught doing something she should not be doing. Geet enter the room closing the door behind her. She stood there without responding with her face towards the door and her back towards Khushi. Khushi found this a bit weird. Geet just stood there like a statue.

Khushi: Di?

Geet took a deep breath in and turned around to a worried Khushi. Geet: Khushi, ab kaisi hai tu? Taiji kah rahi thi, teri tabyat theek nahi hai?

Khushi: Main theek hoon Di. Par aap pareshaan lag rahi ho? Sab theek toh…

Geet didn't let her finish. Geet: Sab theek hai. Don't worry.
She got up and went to the dressing table, but Khushi was still not convinced. No matter, how hard Geet tried to look normal, Khushi could still spot difference in her behavior.

Rano entered the room super excited and with full of enthusiasm.😃
Rano: Geet Puttar main itni khush hoon, main tujhe bata nahi sakti. Pata hai Savitri Devi ji itni khush thi yahan se jaate waqt. Mujhe toh lagta hai unhe tu zaroor pasand aa jayegi.

Geet: Maa, Maan Singh Khurana kyun aaye the yahan? She said so suppressing the anger in her tone.😡

Rano was taken aback. Rano: Puttar, hamari iss bare mein pehle bhi baat ho chuki hai. Nahi?

Geet: Aur main aapko pehle hi apna jawab de chuki hoon. She said the final word.🤢

Khushi could feel the tension in the air. She cleared her throat to gain attention.
Khushi: Main abhi aati hoon. She said so left the room for the mother and daughter to talk.

Rano: mujhe samajh nahi aata ki tujhe problem kis baat se hai? Shaadi se ya phir Khuranas se?

Geet felt as if somebody had stabbed right in her heart.
Rano: Dekh Geet kal tak Maan ka jawab aajaega, aur panditji bhi kal aarahe hain, shaadi ki taarikh pakki karne.

Geet: par…

Rano: par var kucch nahi ab aur koi bahana nahi chalega. She left saying so.

Geet self thought: shaadi toh tab hogi jab Maan shaadi ke liye haan kahenge.

Location: ABC Club; Time: 01:30 a.m.;

Bar tender: sir your drink!

Arnav: make that one more. Plzzz. 😃He said giving his cheeky smile to the lady bar tender. He was extremely drunk and could hardly keep his eyes open.

Akaash: Hey! Kaise hai yaar? Tu aaj yahan kaise? Aaj toh tu Maan Bhai ke liye ladki dekhne jaane wala tha na?
A tall guy with specks wearing a black T-shirt and blue jeans approached him.

Arnav: Akaash, mere dost! Mujhe dekh kar tujhe kya lagta hai? He said so making Akaash realize that Arnav was still wearing weird kinda cloths, that is, his golden sherwani.

Akaash: Oh! toh tu abhi tak ghar kyun nahi gaya? Aaj toh daadi aur bhai dono bahot khush honge.

Arnav: Lekin uss ghar mein, ah! Ghar nahin, I mean uss haveli mein aur bhi kayi log hain jinse bhai ki Khushi bardarsht nahi hoti. Aur main unka chehra dekhkar apni Khushi kam nahi karna chahta. So lets celebrate!!! He shouted in excitement.

Arnav: To the world's best brother, Bhai and the most beautiful woman, Bhabhi.
He raised a toast to them.

Location: Khurana mansion, Maan's bedroom; Time 1:45 a.m;

Maan cut the burning candle flame using his index finger nth time lost in his thoughts and playing with fire.
Maan: Kyun? Kyun panch saal baad takdir phir mere saath wahi khel khel rahi hai?
He cut the flame one again.

Flashback 1: Geet: I LOVE U MAAN!!! She stood on the top level of the church and shouted.

Maan: Geet. Yeh naam kabhi meri zindagi tha.

Flashback 2: Geet: kis ki taqdeer mein kaun likha hai kaun jaane?
Maan: yeh toh taqdeer khud bata deti hai.

Maan: Kyun uski har baat ka mujh par itna gehra asar hota hai?

Flashback 3: Maan: Main tumse pyaar nahi karta. A tear rolled down her cheeks.

He cut the flame once again.

Flashback 4: Geet: Mujhe koi haq nahi ki main aap ke liye kucch bhi mehsoos karu. Aur kucch ho ya na ho, but I'll make sure of one thing Mr Maan Singh Khurana, aaj ke baad aapko mera chehra kabhi dekhna nahi parega.

Fashback 5: (the same day meeting in the handa haveli backyard) He saw her eyes in the light of that flame.

Maan remembered her words again: kiski taqdir mein kya kikha hai kaun jaane?

He frustrated walked into the gym to practice marshal arts using fire, but could remember only one person, Geet.

Plz watch this video now to see what Maan remembers of Geet while in the Gym.

Part 14

Location: Khurana Mansion; Time: 7:30 am;

Maan sat on the dining table waiting for his breakfast.
Maan: Chameli! Chameli mera nashta kahan hai?

Chameli ran out of the kitchen holding a tray of freshly cut fruits and a glass of juice. Her payal making enough noise for anyone to guess that she was nearby.

Chameli: Sorry Bhaiji! Woh aaj phir Arnav Bhaiji ke chakar mein der hogayi. She said so making a sorry face scared of what was coming next.

Maan: uthgaya?
Chameli: Ji nahi! She almost whispered barely audible.

Maan: Kitne baje lauta tha?
Chameli: aahhh….
Maan: Kitne baje chameli? 😡He said in a deep voice making sure he doesn't shout.
Chameli: 3:30 baje… She blabbered with her eyes tightly closed and her fingers diging in her hands.

She slowly opened her left eye to see Maan's expressions and swallowed in seeing him easy.

SD: Maan ab bhi waqt hai. Hamari baat maan lijiye. Aur kisikeliye nahi toh Arnav keliye sahi.
Daadi entered the dining hall and asked Chameli to leave.

SD: Kab tak tum dono is ghuttan mein jeete rahoge? Ab tumhe apni zindagi mein aage barhna chahiye. Maan hamme aaj aapka jawab dena hai. Panditji seedhe Handa Haveli hi jaayenge.
Daadi waited for him to say something but his lips were sealed.

Daadi sighed and continued: Theek hai! Hum pandit ji ko keh dete hain ki aapne shaadi ke liye mana kar diya hai. Woh hamra jawab Handa sahab ko bata denge.

He still didn't say a word.

Daadi got up and left to call Panditji.

***

Location: Handa Haveli; Time: 9:00 a.m;

Geet walked down the stairs elegantly wearing an emerald green formal blouse tucked in her black formal skirt with high heels. Her hair tied up in a high pony as usual, ready to leave for office. But one thing different about today was that she wasn't the only one coming down. She was followed by a running and out of breath Khushi. Khushi wore a pair of blue jeans and a white tube top with white flats and her hair open. She had long silver earings twinkling along her hair as she ran down the stairs.

Khushi: Di…di…Di !!! Ruko, ruko ruko…

Geet: Kya hai Khushi?

Khushi: Woh Di, main pucchna chahti thi kya main aapke saath aajse office join kar sakti hoon?

Geet: par Khushi, tum toh pehle college join karke apna last year complete karna chati thi na?

Khushi: Haan Di! Main School of Architecture, Delhi join kar rahi hoon par saath hi internship bhi karna chahti thi. Appke saath …, atleast for the evenings? She added.

Geet: Sure. Ah! Aaj kya kar rahi ho tum?

Khushi: Di aaj toh main admission formalities complete karne ke liye ja rahi hoon. Par 3:00 p.m. tak free ho jaungi.

Geet: theek hai. Main tujhe wahan se pick up kar loongi. Phir H & G studios challenge. She said smilingly.

Rano walked in diverting their attention. Rano: woh sab toh theek hai par tum dono 6:00 baje tak ghar aajana. Panditji aa rahe hain.

Khushi seemed confused while Rano and Geet exchanged a look.
Khushi: Panditji Kyun? 😕She asked innocently.

Rano: Beta woh navratre chal rahe hain toh puja ke bare mein bataane aa rahe hain.
Khushi smiled 😊 giving a nod while Geet looked irritated.🥱

Geet: Mujhe der ho rahi hai. Bye. She left for office.

Location: School of Architecture; Time: 12 noon;

Watch this vedio for the first scene in School of architecture sports ground.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vxtc9F6vWo0

Arnav: Dar lagta hai?

Bunty: Dar lagta hai! Arnav tu pagal hogaya hai. Understand.

Arnav: chhor na! Chal canteen mein chalte hain. Actually, tum log chalo mein change karke aata hoon.

Rajeev: Ok! Akaash bhi class ke baad canteen mein hi milne wala hai. Tu jaldi aana.

Arnav: Hmm.

Akaash, Rajeev and Bunty were Arnav's best friends. Almost like family. They knew everything about him even about his family. They could tell about his mood just by looking at him once and therefore hardly had any kind of fight with him. They knew Maan's importance in Arnav's life and respected him equally.

***

Khushi walked in the campus but could hardly understand which way to go😕. There were a couple of students sitting on the front staircase. Although they didn't look quite helpful she thought of giving it a try and to ask them the way. She walked towards one of the guys.

Khushi: excuse me? Could you please tell me the way to the registrar's office?

The guy looked at her from head to toe and then smirked a bit. Khushi found it odd.
Khushi (self thought): Khushi raaste puchh aur nikal yahan se.

Guy: Sure, why not? Aap yahan se upar chali jayiye. It's on the second floor, first door on your left.

Khushi: Thank you. She rushed upstairs away from those guys.

Khushi paced as fast as possible wanting to get rid of the looks she was getting from those boys. The first floor was quite a lively one considering the Architecture design studio was situated on it. But when she reached the second floor it was much calmer and there weren't a lot of people to be seen. She thought it to be because of the offices to be situated on the floor. Any how she remembered what the guy downstairs had told her and entered the first door on the left. As she entered the room she realized that it was no where close to being like a registrar's office. It had blue colored lockers and some benches lying systematically on the floor. To her luck the room was empty.

Khushi: Oh God! Yeh toh locker room hai. Logon ke mazak karne ka standard kitna gir gaya hai yaar.
She slapped her forehead to have listened to that stupid boy and followed his directions without using her brain. She turned around to leave but found the door LOCKED!!!

Khushi: Yeh… Yeh bandh kaise hogaya?
Koi hai? Hello… Please Darwaza kholo. She shouted banging the door.

Khushi: Koi hai bahar??

A sweeper at the same time was on his regular rounds on the second floor when he heard somebody shouting from the boys' locker room. He went towards the room only to find it locked from outside.The door was not just bolted but had a lock on it. Just to make sure that he heard it right he knocked on the door to ask if anyone was inside. The moment Khushi heard the sweeper's voice; she opened her mouth to reply back. But before she could, a hand covered her mouth and she was unable to say even a word.

The sweeper thought, it was best to get the higher authorities know and get the locker room opened. He went downstairs to let the dean of the college know.

***

Khushi struggled to get out of the hold of the hand on her mouth by trying to bite it and remove it from her face using her hands. But nothing helped. Suddenly she felt his other hand on her tummy and recognized the tight hold immediately. It was him. The man who had occupied major part of her brain from last 24 hours. She stopped struggling and relaxed in his arms. Arnav slowly removed his hand from her mouth and turned her around facing him.

Khushi's eyes popped out the moment she looked at him. It was really him. She wasn't hallucinating, was she?

Khushi: Tum?
But before she could say anything more he put his finger on her lips in order to stop her from talking.

Arnav: Shhh! Maine tumhare mooh se haath issliye hataya hai taaki tum kal ki tarah behosh na ho jau. Na ki issliye ki tum zor zor se cheekhon.

Khushi made a baby like face looking down. She didn't even realize that she was still in his arms. There was a sudden knock on the door and they realized that someone is trying to open the door. They looked at each other realizing what a big problem they both have ended in.
