Annie, Dadimaa, Nakul n many of the other servants, all were standing outside Maan's room banging the door, begging him to open since morning. Annie even tried to call on his cell, but alas even that is also switched OFF. It was afternoon now n even Rano alongwith Rajji, Geet's younger sister, came down running to KM after Rano got a call from Annie.
Maan beta, please open the door for your Mamma at least..Rano called out anxiously
Bhai please… Annie pleaded
Nothing was working n now they all were hell worried knowing Maan's state. Not left with any other option Dadimaa told the servants to push open the door.
After few attempts they were successful in opening his room door but were not prepared to witness the scene which swept the ground under their feet.
Maan was lying on the floor staring nowhere with red puffy eyes, bordered by dark circles. All his n Geet's pictures were scattered near him whereas one of their wedding photograph was in his hand near his heart. Geet's dupatta that he had got last night with Rano's permission was all over him. His entire body seems to be really restless.
All the four ladies rushed to him but he was lost in his own world.
Maan… beta kya hua???Rano asked worriedly sitting beside him n lifting his head to keep in her lap
They say there is always a Magic in a mother's touch n yes it did the magic.
He looked at Rano blankly trying to register his surroundings. As if sensing his dilemma she asked again
Kya hua beta??? Brushing his hair lovingly
He instantly hid his face in her embrace n sobbed
Mamma pata nahi… kuch theek nahi lag raha kal raat se.. jaise kuch hone wala hai.. I m feeling very restless.. wo theek to hogi naa ??? Mamma please kahiye naa … wo theek hogi naa
All of them were shocked to see Maan in such a vulnerable state, crying like a child. The Man who hid all his pains inside himself putting a fake mask of being strong n tough. Although Rano n Rajji have sensed his pain at times when he locks himself in Geet's room for hours & even Annie n Dadimaa have seen him exercising rigorously as if punishing himself but never imagined him breaking down to this extent.
Annie as if understanding the reason rushed towards his bedside table n took out Geet's report from the drawer.
Bhai ye dekhiye..She said giving Maan the report after doing few calculations
Ye kya hai Annie???Rano asked not getting anything
Aunty ye Geet bhabhi ki pregnancy report hai n according to it aaj uski pregnancy ko 9 months aur around 1 week ho gaya hoga
U mean.. she might b in labour right now.. Rano asked with a smile n tears
Annie nodded with same expressions
Rano immediately hugged Maan who was still dazed. She kissed his forehead very affectionately n blessed him seeing the extent of the bond of their love.
Each one of them had tears in their eyes witnessing the pure love n prayed to the almighty to have mercy on these two innocent souls.
