I closed my eyes sleepily. His words were ringing in my ears "I love you Geet, I love you..."
Start of Flashback
After the dinner; he slipped his hands onto Geet's and said "I don't want to make any promises...because last time I did, and you knew what happened, but deep inside I know, I'll be able to keep you happy; I won't let my past affect you...I love you Geet..."
End of Flashback
What could happen any better except Dadimaa rung thundering that Akshay did not want to sleep and wanted me back home, so we rushed home and found Akshay had fallen asleep on Dadimaa's shoulder while waiting for us.
What could be any better? Huh?
_
Akshay came crashing into the room as soon as I stepped out of the washroom.
"What happened baby?" I asked worriedly. He looked pale. "Where is mama? She isn't in her room" he asked sounded worried. "Oh baby" I said scooping him in my arms as he hugged me "look, she's sleeping here" I said pointing to Geet sleeping on my bed. She was very tired, lazy girl.
Akshay looked confused at Geet then at me; then he poked me on the chest angrily. "I hate you" he screamed waking Geet with the word 'hate'. Even I was surprised. He jumped out of the cuddle and sat on the bed sulking. Now Geet was so shocked seeing Akshay scowling and frowning at us. Geet patted his shoulder but he just shrugged off.
It got both of us upset with his behaviour. It was so weird for once. "Why did you leave me alone yesterday" he snapped glaring at me. "You were having a nap, so we did not think to bother you by waking you up" I answered smilingly cupping his cute face, I was on my knees.
"But you went to eat ice-cream without me!" he shouted angrily.
We couldn't help smiling. Akshay was allergy with cold food stuffs so we would always heat ice-cream to make it liquid so that it was hot enough for him to eat.
"Okay, baby, we are sorry" Geet said giving him a cute puppy face and placed her head on his lap. Akshay stroked her hairs a little and then whined "Mama!" Geet was shocked and quickly jerked.
"You have forgotten your manners!" he added pretending to be shocked. He placed his hands on his hips and said "you did not brush your teeth!" Geet giggled and along with Akshay they went to the washroom.
I left to the gym.
Half an hour later
I felt that someone was peeping in the gym and drooling over me. I did not have to guess to know who it was. I stopped excising and pretended to sit down and saw Geet's reflection in a glass decoration near the end of the room.
"Geet!" I called. Geet hid herself behind a pillar. I smirked. "I can see you...and your shadow" I smirked. She came out blushing red and glanced at me in my black vest before darting out.
As I wore my coat getting ready for office; I saw Akshay and Geet playing with his robots and toys. Akshay glanced at me then at Geet mentally making a note whether she was going to leave him and go away.
"Geet, Akshay, we need to go to Akshay's nursery today, remember, your teacher wanted to do a briefing of what you learnt, and moreover you're in vacations, so you'll get an outing too" I added. Akshay smiled and looked at Geet "Mama, what should I wear?"
***
"Your son is very intelligent, Mr. Khurana" the nursery teacher said. I smiled and Geet squeezed Akshay's hand. "He's very neat and has a very good behaviour" the teacher went on commenting. "I am sure he'll be a brilliant student as soon as he enter school".
***
"What did your teacher say?" Vicky asked. We were going to drop him to his soccer coaching before I drop Geet and Akshay home heading to office. "He said I am good" Akshay said modestly. He got that from Geet.
"I doubt that" Vicky grinned mischievously.
"why? My son is very bright" I said proudly. Geet looked at Vicky with a questioning look.
"Akshay, can you name me 4 members that belong to the cat family?" he said giving me a challenging look. Geet groaned and defended Akshay "for goodness' sake, Vicky, I bet you did not know about leopards and cheetahs till you were twenty!" Vicky turned beetroot.
"I know the answer!" Akshay said. It surprised us.
"What? Easy!" Akshay retorted. "Mother cat, father cat and two babies cat!"
Vicky was flabbergasted once again.
***
"I'll drop you home" I told Geet and Akshay after I dropped Vicky.
"I won't go home" Akshay declared.
" I want to go with you office."
"But...what are you going to do there" I asked. AKshay glared at me.
"But I wan't to go to your office TODAY!" Akshay screamed at the top of his lungs.
"But...son, what will you do there? You'll get bored!" I explained.
"I want to go there; and that's final" Akshay replied stubbornly.
Geet giggled and said "of course; Junior Maan Singh Khurana, you'll go"
***
"Good Morning sir" Sasha told Me.
"Good Morning" Akshay replied holding my hand. Me, Geet and Sasha stood speechless while Akshay shrugged giving us an innocent look.
"Ehh, good morning" Sasha said trying to keep her smile.
I was afraid it was going to be a long day with the staffs and Mr. Junior Khurana...
***
Akshay was busy eating chocolates while I was busy discussing a project with my client. Akshay looked at us and saw we were busy. He cuddled on my lap and noticed I was not checking on him.
"I think this we need to..." I was saying when I felt two little hands cupping my cheeks. But Akshay was not cupping my cheeks he was wiping the chocolate that was stuck in his hands on my cheeks in front of my cilents.
I glanced at Akshay shocked. So was my client.
Akshay gave a little shrug and answered "I was searching for a hankie but you did not give me".
Just then Sasha entered staring at me as if I was a ghost but she didn't comment. Seeing Sasha, Akshay said "Sasha Auntie, can I get a coffee please?"
Sasha winced and answered "sure junior MSK" and left.
Geet entered the cabin and stood there catching flies with her mouth hanging open.
The client had his eyes fixed on Akshay who did not care and was playing with my pen.
The tension was so intense that the client broke into giggles. I turned red because of my little Junior MSK.
Sasha muttering something came and gave Akshay his coffee who sipped silently as if nothing happened.
Geet winked at me...
I smiled about my big family, Geet, Akshay, Dadimaa, Vicky and Anvesha. Everything was so fine now, sometimes its scary to think why everything is joyful.
I am not regretful of saying "I love you" to Geet. She deserved if after her every sacrifice for my family and my baby.
She's like a superwoman, unable to describe this feeling that keeps making me smile everyday. What could I ask for more? Just saying I'm indeed very lucky...
Geet is just a perfect girl for everything...I am just so lucky to have her...I smiled...again
Shut the door
Turn the light off
I wanna be with you
I wanna feel your love
I wanna lay beside you
I cannot hide this
Even though I try
Heart beats harder
Time escapes me
Trembling hands
Touch skin
It makes this harder
And the tears stream down my face
I know Geet loves me a lot; and I'll try my best to give her every happiness she deserves. And she knows too I can't live without her...she's just awesome...
You know I'll be
Your life
Your voice
Your reason to be
My love
My heart
Is breathing for this
Moment
In time
I'll find the words to say
Before you leave me today
Close the door
Throw the key
Don't wanna be reminded
Don't wanna be seen
Don't wanna be without you
My judgment's clouded
Like tonight's sky
I love her so much, I won't make any promises; I just don't want to hurt her; she's just too precious for her. Last time I promised someone; everything was destroyed; I was broken in a nonasecond, this time, no promises; maybe I'll lead a better life...even though I am confident that Geet will never let me down...
I just love her...and I hope one day I'll love her too much...
