Chapter 22

Geet

I dint even realize when we had started moving to the music..

It was different..

It was bliss..

It was a dream!!

It was all dis

Nd yet as I felt him turn me arnd.. I realised..

It wasnt a dream.. this was reality!!

Kurbaan hua was playing in d background..

N we were dancing like never b4..

The rhythm getting us in d groove..

It was a slow bt still I cud feel my heart racing..

His touch so soft bt his grip so tight as if he feared..

The whole contradiction of the situation was trying to seep in my mind.. bt I was beyond dazed..

Thr were no words except those playing in d background..

Bt as we were trapped in an eye lock a conversation flowed which did make sense to our hearts bt still my brain refused to comprehend!!

I dint understand anything except tht I felt like clay being moulded by his hands..

It was as if it made me beautiful..

We were moving, doing our steps in each othrs embrace..

.. as if it was d most natural thing to do..

As d song eneded, he twirled me arnd in his arms..

As he set me down, I cud feel his breath on my face.. n his gaze pierced thru me..

My eyes had closed long ago..

"you dint hear me out der.. I don't dance.. in public.."

It took a sec to realize wht he said..

As I opened my eyes.. I m sure I looked dazed n lost in him,confused.. before I cud say a word..

He walked away..!!

I spent a restless nyt..

Not being able to analyse either him or me..!!

Why did he come back to dance? Did I matter tht much for him to go out of his way to appease me? N den why did he just walk away like tht?

N

Why do I alwaz melt in his arms, lose track of the world? Why do I feel the way I feel wid him? Why do I want to be wid him alwz?

As I thot from d first tym we'd met.. everything seemed to go wrong.. not really wrong.. but it wasn't ryt either..

For a person like me who was nd.. is.. truly, madly, deeply in love wid DD to feel smthng for sm1 else was it ryt?

All my life centred arnd DD..

Nobody knew of it.. my parents thot we hadn't been in touch after d initial few months.. meer knew we were in touch bt dint know the extent on my dependency n attachment to him..

N despite all dis, d way I was reacting here..

I dint know wht to feel.. practically thinking, dis was wrong.. was it sm kind of lust I felt for maan..

NO.. lust was a very demeaning word for whtevr I felt for maan!! It was smthng pure.. I don't know why bt thts wht I felt..

Bt der had 2 b sm way out..

As I compared bth brothers, I realised bth maan n dev were very similar n still very different..

Bt d reason I was comfy wid dev was bcoz we ve known each othr since almost forever..

Bt why was I so comfy wid maan?

Even more than dev???????????

Cudnt think of ny answer to tht!!

I dint know if maan was facing a similar dilemma.. I guess he wasn't!! but den y did he walk away?

But I had to sort it out.. n for tht.. I needed to get away from maan for a while.. atleast!!

Next day morning..

I got up late knowing der was no work..

Maan was not der, guess he had already left for work.. no dev either.. bt meer was der!! I was glad for tht..

"Meer.. no college today?"

"no di.. I ve got an off.. wht abt u?"

"m free.. project done!! So nthng 2 do.."

"so hw was last nyt?"

I stared at her.. wht was tht supposed to mean.. did she see..?

"I mean d party.."

"yeah.. twas good..!!"

"had to be.. I saw ur pics.. dancing.. wid ur dd!!"

Her evry pause had raced my heart beats n den it struck me she was talking of dev..

I dint miss her mischievious teasing smile..

"wer did u see dem?"

"dev showed it to me.. he had dem on his cell.. so whts cooking?"

"meer.. ders nothing.."

"di.. "

"seriously.. ders nothing!!"

"whtever.." she added disbelievingly..

"wht happened?" maa asked as she joined us at the table..

"nothin maa.."

"so u njoyd last nyt?"

"wht?"

"oh we all saw the pics of the party.. n I know hw much u luv dancing.."

"hmm.."

B4 I cud continue.. my phone rang..

It was dev..

"so is sleeping beauty up?"

"dev.."

"yup.. so tell me whts ur plan for today?"

"nothin much.."

"nywaz.. I d suggest u njoy urself today coz tomoro onwards u r joining as our head interior decorator n ur next project is wid me.."

"hmm.. what?!!"

"yeah.. thts d decision we ve almost unanimously taken at d meeting today..!! n I wanted to be the one to offer u d job!!"

"u offered me or informed me..?"

"wel u don't hv an option.. do u? so u r joining KC officially tomoro.."

"but dev'"

"no buts.. got a meeting.. wil catch up wid u at home.."

He hung up leaving me lost in my thots.. I was happy.. dis was my dream after all to join KC n work wid DD..

bt still.. all dis confusion was ruining it!!

I guess it was for d best.. dis was probably a chance to understand my feelings..

Working wid dev wud b just d solution..

Or so I hoped..!!

PS

Wont b dragging it too much..

Till den, keep d faith..!!
