Part 34:
The celebrations in the mansion gradually faded away as the night gave in. Everybody were exhuberant to witness the wedding of the decade, except the bride who sat on the bed with a forlorn expression. Geet knew that she had destroyed her life with her own hands, but she couldnt help it. she loved Maan too much to be able to live a lie with him. She prefered dieing immediately than dying a slow death everyday, seeing him with different women.
Tears scalded down her eyes as she remembered the hurt on Maan's face when he left the room. But then, why would he be hurt? He should have been glas when she asked him for a divorce. Afterall he would be free to do whatever he liked. It was all getting too complicated. within days her life had turned upside down. She was no lonegr the simple Geet Handa. She was Geet Maan Singh Khurana. The name sounded too good to be true. She couldnt bear to be selfish just for her momentary satisfaction. It would be unfair to Maan. AFterall he married her just because of her parents, and she was not going to let him live in bondage. She was going to set him free even if it meant she had to break her own heart.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Geet wiped her tears and set herself right as she asked whoever it was to come in. A man servant came in and told her that there was a car waiting for her and he was instructed to take her till the car. Geet was confused. She asked the servant what the matter was but the servant only said that he was doing as instructed by Maan saheb.
Now Geet knew what this was all about. He had probably even made arrangements for them to stay seperately. He was already tired of her, Geet thought sadly as she entered the audi which was waiting for her outside the mansion.
It was past one hour and she was still in the car. The driver refused to speak to her and out of boredum, Geet gradually dozed off. After sometime the car reached it's destination.
*****************************
He opened the door to see his angel fast asleep on the seat. He gently carried her in his arms and started to walk towards a particular place. He then placed her on a seat and disappeared.
Geet stirred in her sleep as she felt something bright hitting her eyes. She slowly opened her eyes and boy, she was awestuck! Right in front of her stood the Taj Mahal, standing tall and beautiful in the middle of the night, decorated like a bride.
All Geet could do was stare. She was lost in the beauty of the moment, when the lights went off only to bathe the monument in moonlight. Suddenly, right in the middle of the Taj, on the marble wall, appeared an image of her in a white saree. She looked around but could not find anyone. Just then she heard a voice
"There was a man who thought he had possibly evrything the world could give him. Money, power, wealth, status, name it and it was at his disposal. The arrogant man thought he was the master of the world and there was nothing more that he could want. Litlle did the foolish man know that his life was as empty as a shell.
Time passed by and fate brought him to this very place. He thought everything was normal,until his life turned upside down when a beautiful girl came walking towards him, dressed in white. From that moment onwards he was not the same, his life was not the same. She would refuse to leave his mind at peace, whether through hating her or challenging her or asking her forgiveness.
Gradually the man realised what the problem was. It was not a problem but in order to survive, he had to find the solution and that solution was her. He had fallen in love with the girl who changed his life the moment she walked into it. He was so irrevocably in love with her that he couldnt live without her. So he went to her hometown just to get a glimpse of her. He wasnt yet sure about how she felt so he left her alone to think.
And then the Gods intervened. They knew he was a lost case so they decided to complete his love story. They brought the girl's angry parents near him and after a lot of convincing, he made them agree to get the girl married to him. The man was so happy to make the girl his and his forever that he forgot what the girl thought about him and what she actually felt."
Maan slowly appeared from behind the image, a microphone attached to his shirt. Geet just looked at him with eyes blinded by tears as he knelt down before her.
"That man in me Geet, and that angel is you. I know that i am a total jerk and i dont deserve you. I dont even know how you feel, but i'm sure about how i feel. I wont be able to live without you Geet. You have become the song of my life, the life which was just another existence uptill now. You added a meaning to it.
I LOVE YOU GEET. Will you please give me a chance to proove myself worthy of you?" Maan said in a soft voice as he held out a single red rose to her. His heart started beating faster as Geet did not respond. He slowly got up and turned away . he felt like his life was slipping away with every step when suddenly he was knocked down by the force of her jumping on him.
"I love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, you jerk. Geet hugged him tightly from behind th the same time pounding her fists on his back. Maan turned around and crushed her to him, kissing her everywhere. They hugged like they couldnt get enough of each other.
Finally when they were breathless, they settled into a comfortable hug, but Geet still had her doubts. She looked into his eyes and asked, "Then what about Garcia? I thought you loved her"
Maan gave her a confused look and then suddenly started laughing. " What about Gracia? Your brain never does brake on its overactive imagination. Does it now?" Maan was still laughing. "Garcia is my dear friend, only friend. Besides would i have the energy left to love another woman with my lioness of a wife taking up all my energy in fighting with her and making it up to her?"
Geet hit him on the chest until his laugh was wiped off. " The employees in your office told me that you were a couple and you were planning to get back with her. And then i saw you hugging Garcia at our reception,so i thought that you were being forced into this marriage."
"Geet, you are forgetting that I am Maan SIngh Khurana. Nobody can dare force anything on me. In my world, everything happens according to me.I love you Geet. I wanted to marry you come what may, so i convinced your parents to get you married to me. It is as simple as that." Maan winked at her.
"Spoken like a true Dusht Daanav." Geet muttered but stopped midway when Maan gave her a stare.
"Speaking about Garcia, well we just dated when i was in college but soon after we grew out of it and we became close friends. Later my friend Aakash fell in love with her and i was happy for both of them. Since then we have been in close contact. I hugged he at our reception because Aakash had just proposed to her and she told me that they would be getting married in the coming month. Since Aakash was called away on some important work you saw me hugging only Garcia. That about completes the story. Anymore questions to be answered my doubting Thomas? " Maan teased her and Geet his herself in his chest.
*******************************
Later as they were coming home Maan stopped the car in the middle of the road. "Geet, i remembered something. Do we still need a divorce lawyer?" Maan asked her with mischief in his eyes.
Lucky for Maan, Geet had her seatbelt on or else he would have been dead meat. " If you continue to crack such lame jokes Mr. Maan SIngh Khurana, i'm afraid i'll be needing a criminal lawyer to get me out of jail for murdering you. I wonder where this sense of humour goes when you come to the office. People scamper away in fear even before seeing you." She laughed.
Her laugh died in her throat as he leaned into her.
"What about you Geet, dont you get scared of me?" Maan asked huskily and Geet leaned against the door as her heart started an eratic race.
"No. Why should i get scared of you?" Geet said nervously.
"Are you sure its a no?" Maan came even more closer to her.
"No." Geet said softly as she closed her eyes.
"No?" Thier lips were inches apart.
"No." His breath was on her lips.
Suddenly her phone rang and they came out of thier dream world.
Maan banged his fist to the steering as Geet smiled and picked up the phone. What she heard next made her let out a shriek. Before she could hear anything more she cut the call and started crying.
"Maan, i have to go to Hoshiarpur. My parents met with an accident on thier way home and Papaji has been injured. I have to go ho
