~*~Chapter 17~*~
After some formal conversation.Both families came out of uncomfortable zone sharing their family secrets.Hesitation had been left far behind .Daddi Maa agreed to say her 'Rano' instead of Mrs Handa n Rano agreed to call Daddi Maa as 'Manji'.
Maan and Inder busy with their business talks n ladies in gossips in the town.Geet was only creature sitting silently.
Rano: Manji u never ever asked Maan to get married
(she said hesitatingly )
Daddi: Rano my wish to hav Bahu not gonna b fulfilled.He is too stubborn.I m asking him same from years.But he doesn't want to get married. (she sighed)
Rano: Kissi k jaane se jindgi to nahi rukti.If he got cheated.Its not that every one is such
Geet who was still silence at last broken her silence.
Geet: Maa we can't understand him what he thinks What we think ..he must hav same thinking..there is no logic in it.(she placed her hand on Rano's hand)
Daddi: But beta ur mother has a point.
Geet: Daddi Maa I understand what u think..same lik my mom..to hav some one in ur kids life so that we can move ahead.(she said in feeble voice..She was much upset )
Daddi: Yahi to hum keh rahe hai (she second Geet's point)
Geet: But Daddi Maa..It is much difficult to leave every thing behind(she sighed)
Rano: Koshis ki jaye to sabh ho sakta hai Geet.Manji ki tarah main bhi yahi chahti hu so that u can get ur share of happiness (she brushed Geet's hair)
Maan who was over hearing them came close
Maan: Oh then same lecture Daddi Maa is giving from years.Geet tumko bhi wahi milta hai roj.I thought I m alone (he teased Geet)
Daddi: Maan nothing gonna effect u...rehne dejiye she is getting bored in between we old people.Geet ko apna mension he dikha dejiye (she changed topic)
Maan showed his teeth without reason looking at Geet.
Maan: Daddi Maa if she wants I hav no objection.But ask her not to fight with me.(he smirked)
Geet:Means mai jhagda (fight) karti hu(she frowned )
Maan: No need to giv proof .Ur facial expressions r enough to tell
Three of them were smiling on them n their informal behavior .
Inder: Tum dono Mannat aur Rehaan k Parents nahi khud Mannat aur Rehaan k jaise lag rahe ho.Now go away from here.Jitna fight karna hai kar lijiye (inder teased both)
Geet: Haaa ! Papa u also think so (she said in wonderment )
Daddi: Bas kijiye aur jaa-ea aap dono
Geet made golgappa face.Without saying any thing followed Maan to upstairs.Trio cracked up looking at both.
Upstairs scene was different.Now Geet made Maan to follow her.Opening each n every door. Observing things making own judgement about those..Maan had been irritated
Maan: Beta Maan Singh Khuraana yeh tera he ghar hai na .(he mumbles following her )
Geet: Ji waise apne kush kaha ( she had forgotten whether she was angry with him or not)
Maan: Ji main apse kya keh sakta hu... but don open this door (Maan stopped Geet to open a door)
Geet: .I m sure this is ur room.boring stuff he hoga yahan(Geet winked )
Maan open eyed looed at her.She winked 😉
Maan: Yahan hum dono ka stuff hai...boring hai ya nahi it is up to u ? (Maan kya bole aap 😆 )
Geet: What...mera stuff yahan (she yelled)
Maan: Rehaan ka room hai...let them both play When ever they r alone then both play peacefully.Jab humare sath ho to aasmaan sar per utha lete hai (he said moved from there)
Geet started to chase him .She stopped in front of a room .Door was open.
Geet: This is surely ur study (she back called him)
Maan turned around
Maan: Ya this is .
Geet: I hav to check what's ur taste (haila geet tu kya boli)
Maan: Mera taste...how u can taste me ...is there any possibility (Maan scratched his head )
Maan not get her..but Geet realized what she said.
Geet: Mr Khuraana taste means sense ..lik dressing sense...life style...now if I m in front of study ...then main books ki he baat karugi (she turned convo so that Maan couldn't get )
Without waiting reaction from Maan he walked in.Well arranged study.Neat n tidy.Every thing on place.
She had judged walking around whole KM Khuraanas r much disciplined n hav great life style. From selection of each n every thing present in their home from their position in society.Now after this private get together she also realized what they r outside same they r inside their home,there is no artificiality.
~*Next part*~
Maan: There is nothing according to ur taste (folding arms he said)
Geet: Oh at least u understand what is taste.By the way Mr Khuraana I also hav business blood.So I know ek business man ki study main kya mil sakta hai (she placed on hand on waist)
Maan: Really then tell me ?
Geet: Main yaha bacho ka game nahi khel rahi..k ankho per pati bandh kar guess karna hai.Jo aap puch rahe hai.Every thing is front of u (she yelled)
Maan got frightened .
Maan: Ya I know...jst I want ur views .
Geet: Oh...Maan u r too much ...sidhi baat kiya kijiye
Maan: To aab tum he kar lo ...meri study dekhna hai tumko it all urs. (aall urs Maan haila kya bola 😉)
Geet just checked each and every thing making comments. But Maan he was standing in a corner lik he is any suspect n Geet any police investigator.His project files,desk top ,printer to curtains
Geet: Maan u should change ur desktop (she teased)
Maan: Why .This is new one (poor baby...he made baby face)
Geet: Kitna sleek sa hai...apke gusse se tutt gaya to (she cracked up)
Maan: Geet u r too much (even he laughed looking at her )
She now turned toward book shelves with glass panels
Having great collection of books.She was surprised man lik Him may hav addiction to read.
Geet: Maan u really read .I mean these books.When we hav PC ,laptop n tabs
Maan: Why in sab k hone se in books ki importance kam ho jaati hai kya (he comes close to her)
Geet: I jst mean how u giv time to these books.How ever from Karl Marx to Professor Amartya Sen's economic theories.Even 'Wings of Fire' Dr APJ Kalam's Autobiography.I m impressed (Geet grabbed Maan's arm)
Maan first time felt a feminine touch.What she was saying Maan heard nothing but jst looking at him.Chirping smile came to his lips Geet blushes When she realizes Maan so close to her gazing her without a single blink.
She immediately removed her hand n with this Maan came back to senses
Maan: tumm tum kush keh rahi...I mean ..tum .apne baare main kush bata rahi thi (he fumbles)
Geet: No nothing..we should leave now ..chalte hai bahut derr ho gayi (she takes360d. turn )
Maan: Ya plz ...(he said in gentleman way)
When thay came downstairs every one noticed some thing is fishy.When they left there were not ready to listen one another n now there was silence.
Daddi: Lagta hai yudh viraam ho gaya (she teased)
Maan: U r too much Daddi Maa ...hum bache hai jo fight karte rahe-gay ..minor clashes to friends k beach hotay he rehte hai to kya hua...(he made sorry face for Geet)
'Friends' all said in one voice
Both Geet n Maan were speechless.Jst looked at them in amusement
So all of u bear me if u think u can read me.Plz comment n hit lik.As Mona said to silent readers plz comment.My regular readers u r not bound to comment if u havn't read plz leave it its more better than to say 'wonderful' 'mind blowing' 'awesome' it shows I hav been failed to reach ur level .
