MG OS- The Date

" Parineeta Chopra I will kill you if you dare drag me to one more date saying that it's only a girl's night out!" hissed Geet.

"Oh ho Geet...relax kar yaar, I promise you'll be okay" said Parineeta. Geet zipped her black dress.

She slipped her stilettos on and strapped them on tightly.

"Miss. Lawyer, stop acting like a total bore!" sighed Parineeta.

"Pari stop it...I'm tired of these a**hole guys you introduce me to" replied Geet.

" Okay yaar...ek do teen thay, but don't label them all the same" said Parineeta as she took a shot of vodka.

"Why are you drinking when we aren't even there yet?" asked Geet.

"Because you're miss goody 'two shoes that happens to be the designated driver" replied Parineeta.

"Bohot kameeni ho Pari..." chuckled Geet.

"Oh please..." said Parineeta.

" Shutup... Tujhe pata hain naa, I don't like this stuff...ainvi main bakwas" snapped Geet.

" You're a smart girl Geet, shutup and don't f*ck up any more dates" replied Parineeta.

Geet rolled her eyes and grabbed her clutch and keys. "Last one, I swear... or else I'll file a huge lawsuit on you" hissed Geet.

"Very funny my as*..." replied Parineeta.

The girls went off into Geet's car and they drove towards the pub. Geet drove and Parineeta began texting furiously.

"Kisko jagah rahi hain?" asked Geet as she turned into the parking lot.

"Shutup...Karan ko kar rahi thi" replied Parineeta.

Geet rolled her eyes and pulled the car into parking and pulled the handbrake up. She turned the car off and the girls filed out of the car.

Geet and Parineeta quickly shuffled inside and Parineeta looked all over for their dates.

Geet found a seat in the corner for herself while Parineeta was calling their dates furiously.

Geet ordered mango juice since she didn't drink at all. Geet took her jacket off and smoothed her long brown hair down.

She looked at her blackberry which had a million messages from work. She began emailing and getting back to her clients and her office.

She sighed and looked through her personal email and found the email she was looking for.

" TheMan..." smiled Geet.

She saw his email which wrote,

"Hey,

How are you? I know I haven't emailed in awhile, but not to worry, I have a lot to tell you. First of all, I got that contract for the hotel and now I just showed Dadimaa our new place in Delhi... I hope you aren't missing our late night conversations, but I won't lie, I'm missing them a lot. I know you're a busy bee at work and I understand. Just take care of yourself and eat well.

Love,

TheMan"

She smiled at her secret admirer...she loved it when he emailed her. They spoke over the phone for almost a year now ever since that wrong number she picked up.She didn't see any other guy as perfect as him... His voice...his charm...and above all, his honesty all attracted her. But she always use to ask him if she could just see him once. He always use to say, " Mishti, zara sa intezaar...I know when you will, it'll be the most special moment"

She was okay with it...Besides, she was a hard catch and she didn't want to sound desperate at all for him.

"Geet... GEET KI BACHI!" hissed Parineeta.

Geet snapped out of her dreams and Parineeta glared, " Are you looking at his emails again? That creep!!"

"Hes not a creep, get lost Pari" snapped Geet.

Parineeta sighed, " Stop living in a dream world! He's probably an old fat guy hitting on you!"

" Shutup, whoever he is...hes nice... " replied Geet.

"Okay theek hain...take care of yourself, but good news and bad news... you're date sprained his ankle and my date is a loser who can't even count properly and good news, it's definitely a girls night out now" replied Parineeta.

Geet smiled and shut her phone off. Parineeta ordered herself a martini and sighed, " Humari kahaani bilkul sad si hain"

"Kyun?"asked Geet.

" humaray dono dates humay chor ke chale gaye hain...and we have no eye candy at all" replied Parineeta.

" Oh ho...aur Karan Singhania ka kya hua?" asked Geet amusingly.

"Oh him? Haan...its on and off" replied Parineeta casually.

"Kadar kar Karan ki...he loves you so much" said Geet. " Haan...tu to kahegi, he went to law school with you" said Parineeta.

"You're a beautiful young businesswoman Parineeta...you're the definition of Miss. Independent that hes been looking for!"added Geet.

Parineeta smiled, " I know...par, darr lagta hain"

"Kiska?"asked Geet.

Parineeta was about to say something until her phone rang. Geet winked and smirked, " Karan hain naa?"

"Oye teri! Tujhe kaisay pata?" asked Parineeta.

"Jaa bacha, phone le le" replied Geet. Parineeta rolled her eyes and excused herself while she talked to Karan.

Geet grabbed her things and went towards the washroom. She washed up and fixed her makeup.

She exited out of the washroom and there she bumped into a tall man. She bounced back a little until he caught her by the arm protectively.

" Hey...tum theek to ho?" asked the man.

Geet looked up and she was almost smitten. She gulped and nodded innocently.

The man let out a small smirk, " All right then, take care"

He went into the men's washroom and Geet was almost flying with his touch.

"Holy mother-" thought Geet.

Geet suddenly snapped into her one man woman mode..."Haye... chi chi...what the hell? Why would I look at another man?!"

Geet managed to shrug it off but his face was still in front of her eyes. His perfect jaw line, chocolate brown eyes and perfect lips...

Geet sat down to find Parineeta smiling at her.

"Kya hua Geet Handa? Tere gaal itne laal kyun ho rahe hain?" asked Parineeta.

"K..kuch nahin" blushed Geet.

"Kya huaa... bata denaa!" said Parineeta excitedly.

Geet told her about her encounter and Parineeta smirked, " Achaa?"

"He's so handsome.." said Geet.

Parineeta smacked her forehead, " Get out of the ancient world Geet...just say that he's absolutely and mouth wateringly sexy?"

"Shutup...tu naa, izaat karna seekh le!" hissed Geet.

" Shutup...tu naa 19^th century main belong karti hain" said Parineeta.

Geet was about to say something until her eyes caught someone looking at her.

She switched her eyes to look in front of her and there she saw the same handsome man sitting with a drink in his hands staring at her with his gorgeous eyes.

Geet saw his grey suit which fit him perfectly and his perfect shoes...

He looked like a model straight out of a magazine. Geet smiled in his direction and Parineeta babbled on curses at Geet.

Parineeta realized Geet wasn't paying attention and she smiled, " Eh auntie kya dekh rahi ho?"

" Sexy ko...tu bhi dekh le" mumbled Geet. Parineeta's eyes almost popped out of her, " HIM!?"

Parineeta turned around and saw the guy still staring at Geet...

" Ohho... Geet ji...go talk to him" said Parineeta.

Geet got up and she walked towards him. She sat on the bar stool beside him and said, " Mango juice please..."

The guy let out a small smirk..."So its true, beautiful ladies like you don't drink anymore?"

Geet smiled to the side, " Of course not, humari bhi koi izaat hain"

"Ahh... a dagger miss-"

"Geet...Geet Handa" replied Geet as she held out her hand. The guy smirked completely and took her hand and kissed it, " Its Maan...Maan Singh Khurana..."

"James bond ki acting kar rahe hain aap?"asked Geet as she put a straw in her mango juice.

"Bilkul nahin...impress karni ki koshish main laga hua hoon"

Geet laughed and Maan smiled, " You have a beautiful laugh and smile..."

" Thanks... aur aap bhi theek thaak ho" replied Geet who was clearly smitten.

Maan chuckled and Geet suddenly frowned. She looked at him with questioning eyes. He bore into hers lovingly.

" Kya hua?"asked Maan.

"You.. your voice...it seems so-" began Geet.

"Familiar?" asked Maan.

" Yeah...I feel like I've talked to you before" said Geet.

"You have excellent pickup lines Geet..."replied Maan.

Geet immediately got a email buzz on her phone and she excused herself for a minute. She read the email which said,

"Door hain...par hum aapke bohot kareeb hain... I miss you a lot" wrote TheMan...

Geet felt a lump in her throat... this guy who emailed her was so sweet... And there she was back stabbing him.

She decided she would stop flirting now... she shouldn't be doing this to him. Geet went upto Maan and he smiled, " Hey sab kuch theek hain naa?"

"Mr. Maan Singh Khurana you seem so familiar to me... but nonetheless, I have to tell you the truth... I'm seeing someone else and though I haven't met him...he's become so much more to me... I'm sorry for leading you on... if you want to say something else then please do. Other than that, I'm sorry once again." Replied Geet.

She grabbed her coat and walked away and then Maan called out to her, " Mishti...kahaan jaa rahi ho?"

Geet froze and Parineeta laid back on her chair smirking to herself.

Geet turned on her heels and went immediately to him, " Kya kahaa aapne? Phir se boliye"

"Mishti...mujhe abhi tak nahin pehchaani?" asked Maan amusingly as he sipped on his drink.

Geet dropped her purse, phone and coat...she stepped back, " The..the..you..aap?!"
