CHAPTER 10

Geet

Another tough day at work.. n den i had 2 visit bauji.. an urgent call fm d hospital.. bauji n his tantrums to stay in a deluxe room coz it suited royals.. n den his expectations fm odrs 2 treat him like one.. nt 2 mention d latest reports were nt favorable eithr!! Anthr drained out day.. i was feeling so exhausted mentally.. and physically.. n worse was der wer no answers 2 ny of my problems..

Glancing at my watch i realised i was more late dn usual.. n maahi wud b waiting.. as i neared her lane.. i saw a familiar black audi.. no it was nt possible.. esp after ystrdy.. did smthng go wrong.. I literally ran home

D sight which greeted me shocked me.. der on d couch maan n maahi wer sitting playin games on xbox!!

Njoyin demselves?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was I dreaming.. hw was dis possible?

"maa.. daddy brought me home!!

"he did.."

b4 I cud think abt it, maan spoke up

"maahi.. wont u tell ur mom from WHR I brought u home?

I was confused n lukd at her..

"wo.. ummm."

"maahi.."

"wo.. I went to his office..!"

"wht?"

"maa. Al girls go 2 their fathers offices.. y cant i?"

"maahi.. I dnt care wht odrs do.. u shudnt hv..

Hey babaji.. maahi don't I hv enuf problems.. tht u r adding to it?"

"wht problems?"

All dis while I had avoided lukin directly at him n nw wen I did..it took my breath away.. he was dressed in his professional businessman attire tht made him look drop dead gorgeous.. and his perfect body..

"geet"

His voice brought me bk 2 reality n I realized 2 was bk 2 my past habits of drooling at him.. unlike him who seemed so detached n unaffected..

"geet.. whts wrong?"

The sudden softening n concern in his voice just melted me.. I so wanted 2 cry my heart out on his shoulders.. but den reality sunk.. we no longer shared such a relatn!!

"oh nthng much.. d usual just dis n dat! Hw long hv u been here?"

It was maahi who answered.. "maa.. u know daddy's office is so big.. n looks wow n he has so many miniature bldng models in his office. he s been here since wen he came to drop me n den we even played on d xbox.. it was so much fun!!" n den dey automatically exchanged a high five.. while I cud only stare.. maan s charm had rubbed off her.. but then tht was him alwaz..!!

Nywaz I was glad dt dey got along.. plus I dint hv 2 answer his questions..!!

But before I cud even thnk babaji for it..

"maahi I think u shud go catch up wid ur school work.. while I talk 2 ur mom?"

"do I need 2 go?" maahi pouted n made a baby face.. n I swear maan almost smiled!

But den bk 2 his perpetual dusht danav mode"I think u already pushed ur luck for 2de.. ryt?"

"um.. bt can I say bye 2 u b4 u leave?"

I saw maan nod sighingly.. n knew it was my turn next.. n knowing maan.. he was nvr d 1 to give up..

Maan

I had been seeing geet since d time she had cm.. n though I had intended 2 give her a piece of my mind for her plotting 2 send maahi 2 my office n nt even caring for her safety..

But seeing her so fatigued n distressed.. made me 4gt evrythng.. she seemed so vulnerable.. nd her surprise 2 c me seemed genuine.. n whn she said..

"maahi.. I dnt care wht odrs do.. u shudnt hv..

Hey babaji.. maahi don't I hv enuf problems.. tht u r adding to it?"

My thots wer vindicated.. her denial to tell me nythng confirmed it!!

For a second I thot.. it was none of my concern.. bt my heart told me tht she was still my wife.. while my brain refuses 2 accept tht.. but den I desperately needed 2 know whts wrong..

As tactfully as I cud I send maahi in.. n den approached geet who seemed lost in her thots ..

She was standing wid her bk 2 me.. I knew of all her ways 2 avoid me.. bt den I also knew hw 2 get thru her defenses.. !!

Geet

I felt him behind me.. n I knew I cudnt avoid it.. bt I dint want him 2 c his effect on me.. dint want him 2 know hw weak I felt..

"mishty.."

His one word melted me.. I knew I cudnt resist him.. d desire 2 turn arnd n hug him was so strong tht I had 2 clench my fists.. aftr all it felt bliss 2 hear him cal me tht.. he hadn't since we d separated

"mishty.. whts wrong?"

"ummm.. nothing.."

I entered d kitchen.. "wud u like smthng 2 drink.. coffee?"

"umm.."

As I gave him his cup of coffee.. I felt his piercing gaze on me all d time..

"wht took u so long? Maahi told me.. u r generally bk earlier?"

"wo.. had 2 go meet bauji!!"

" umm. So hwz his heath nw?"

" hw do u know?"

"maahi mentioned abt his operatn.."

"well.. d operatn was fine.. but"

"but.."

"d prognosis aint gud"

"wasn't d operation successful?"

"it was.. bt tht aint enuf.. his heart has weakened n he's slowly succumbing 2 it!.. he's dying"
