The Cruise - A Miracle On Sea last part pg33 - Page 10

Im back within a day 😆

My school has given me a day off tomorrow

So just typed the update now

Note 1 : I dont think that i will be able to update Hoshiyarpur express regularly till Cruise ends . My concentration is now towards cruise alone . I will update Hoshiyarpur express regularly after ending Cruise .

Note 2 : Guys , I will be able to give short updates on a regular basis . If u need longer ones then it would take time . So which one do you prefer - shorter regular updates or longer irregular updates ???

Please let me know through ur comments

So here goes the Part -7

Please ignore errors and Enjoy reading

Next update probably tomorrow 😛

PART - 7

"Sorry sir , we could not provide you with the information without knowing the passenger's name "

"Its okay , no problem .Thank you " Maan told and went to his room . He shut the door and looked at the bracelet in his hand . He placed it securely in his pocket and placed an order for a steaming hot cup of black coffee.

" Uss waiter ki tho mein ithna bura haal karungi na ki uski apni naani ki yaad aajayegi " muttered geet as she walked to her room taking heavy steps . Her slippers slapped against her foot producing a tup tup sound . She barged into her room and saw that her room mate was engrossed in her book as usual .

Nandini pulled down her book to her chest and saw a sticky geet .

"Hi " she told . Before geet could reply she went back to her book .

"Duuhhh……" geet told to herself and took her a new set of clothings and rushed into the washroom .

She pulled herself from her sticky T shirt and had a short shower . She changed herself and came out of the washroom to see Nandini snoring loudly.

Geet passed her a glance and then combed her hair into a high pony .

Infront of her stood a girl dressed in a long kurti than reached her knees and a denim jean . Geet smiled at her reflection satisfied with her looks .

It was 30 mins past 5 in the dusk . Geet stood at the dock of the ship leaning forward over the fence .

It was the time of horizon . The sky met the sea . The sun was dipping the warm waters bidding a bye and the moon had started to spread its chillness . Geet looked above and stared at the sky . She had always loved to stare at the patterns of the sky with her father . And to her surprise each pattern was different from the previous ones .

Today the sky had the pattern of the sea . She looked down and saw that both were similar in their texture . Was the pattern of the sea a reflection of the sky or was the sky reflecting the sea ??? This was the question that popped into her mind . She stared at the clouds and saw various shapes . But one huge cloud caught her eyes . It was like a huge ship and had the shape of 2 people standing on it 's deck . Geet felt herself at the same state . The sky reminded her of the sea while the clouds reminded her of Atlantis . One person was herself but the other ????

Her thoughts were broken by a deep manly voice "Hi "

Geet turned to see maan standing . She looked at him and then back at the cloud . Everything in the cloud had come true !!!!!

"Hello !!" she replied with a smile

"Enjoying nature , huh ??? "

Geet passed a smile and told , " Look at the sky !!! Nature had painted something beautiful on her sheet called sky , today "

Maan looked up and saw that it was indeed beautiful.

Geet began , " Nature paints a beautiful picture everyday !! Its only we the human beings who don't have time to enjoy it "

Maan nodded his head , " True "

Silence prevailed for a minute or two . Both turned to face each other .

"Maan , Maan Singh Khurana " Maan told and forwarded his head

"Aapko kaun nahi jaantha hain ???? You are the owner of Khurana and sons , 28 years old and recently engaged , if I am right !!!! "

"Absolutely , you are "

"I'm geet , Geet Handa " She shook her hand with his

"Please meeting you " He told passing a sweet smile

"Same here , Master " Geet showed her dimples

"So what brought you here on the Atlantis ???" Maan asked

"Well , I won the Mothers' day contest in XYZ magazine and got this tour as a reward "

"May I know those beautiful lines which won you the Atlantis ??"

" Far way from from clouds and dust

But Nearer to the birds and land ,you are

The drop of love in your magical touch

The rhythm of affection in your song of words

Carts of gold , bags of pearls leave

Your love for me unbalanced , Oh dear !!

A shoulder for my cry , a hand for my hi-fi

A pair of hands for my victory and a fist to knock my head

I don't know a person like you in this world

All I know is that You are great , mother !!!! "

(not copied from any website or blog , my own piece 😉)

"Nice ………… a deserving one !! " Maan told

"thanks …….."

"So ,You are a writer ??? "

"hmmm………..well……… you can call me as an aspiring writer ……"

"Means ??"

"I have completed my masters in literature ……….writing has always been my passion …….. I am searching for a right chance in a good publishing house …….. I'm now currently working on a novel which is plotted on a cruise and I undertook this cruise coz I thought that I could get some good idea while experiencing the feel "

"All the best …..You have high dreams "

"Thanks again ……………"

"Your reason for this cruise ??"

"I undertook this cruise to relax myself from this busy world …..in short to chill out myself "

"Good …………. I read an article about you on Front Line ………. I heard that you are working on some huge mall "

"Yeah !!! its me who is designing this mall…………. I have been planning for something different and I have did it ……… The sketch has come out well and the construction is yet to begin in a month or so …..fingers crossed "

"Waiting to see the different piece with the artistic touches of Mr.Khurana "

Maan just chuckled

"Whom do you live with , Mr.Khurana ??"

"I live with my dadi , she was the one who nurtured me ….my parents died when I was 10 and my grandfather breathed his last when I was 13 ………."

"I'm sorry………."

"Its okay , not a problem ………."

"Your dadi is a great woman ………"

"Yup , she is "

"What about you Miss. Handa ?? "

"I'm alone , My mom passed away when I was 18 "

"your dad ?? "

"He's not with me anymore "

"I'm sorry "

"You need not be !! He is not dead ……….. Dad was an army officer at the borders and he fell in love with mom during a rescue operation ………. Dad could not bear mom's loss and hence left our home…..."

"Then, Where he is now ????"

"Some where in Haridwar , Rishikesh or may be in the places he spent with mom ……….I don't know where he is !!!! "

" What ?? How can you leave him alone , what if something happens to him ?????"

"No , I know nothing would happen to him "

"How do u believe so , Handa ?? "

"Coz, I trust him……….. I know he wont do anything stupid to himself coz He loves mom …..Mom might not be physically alive but she still lives in his heart in the form of his love and dad , by killing himself would kill mom , I knew he wont do that ……………"

" But how can ur dad leave u alone ??"

"Coz he trusts me , he knew that I could lead my own life and he let only after I promised him that I could take care of myself " she paused " I know that dad is still fit and I knew that he knows that I am all right "

"How do you know ???"

"hmm………A sort of telepathy " she told and giggled

Maan just smiled with her . She started staring at the waters while he stared at her for a brief minute .
