He broke the hug….and looked deeply into her eyes...
"What did you say…? Say it again…"
"I love you maan…."
He was still not able to believe it….
"Again…."
"I love you maan…I love you so much…"
Saying this she hugged him instantly…..
"I love you so much maan….I am sorry that I gave you pain all these years….I realized that I love you when you left me….but I was scared that if I confess you may think that I am selfish person…only love you for your money…but that is not true maan….I love you for what you are…my best friend my shadow…who never left me alone in these 10 years….thank you maan for being with me when I was alone…even if you're not in person… in front of me….but you were always behind looking after me…why you love me so much….huh?... but now I will not leave you even for one second….I love you I love you maan…"
She poured all her feelings out….she hugged him tightly wanting to feel him fully feel his presence…..Maan was in state of shock….first she confessed her feelings, then she came to know that he was watching her all these years and also helped in her dad's treatment….he wanted to hide this from her but she came to know…..then he realized that she must have checked the file which was having the medical reports of her dad's for all these years…
Her tears started to wet his shirt…he was so happy that she boldly expressed her feelings….he hugged her back tightly closing his eyes….
He was feeling her warmth for which he was waiting for 10 years…he was hugging her like he is having a most valuable thing…
Both stayed in each other's embrace forgetting everything….they were waiting for this moment for long time…they both were pouring out their love towards each other…
After few minutes they broke the hug….he looked deeply into her eyes which were showing the pure love towards him….he was on cloud nine…he was not able to express in words how he is feeling right now…Every desire which he kept locked for 10 years was bursting out...
He wanted to hug her more and kiss her madly…but he wants to make it more special…..their first kiss should be memorable….he wanted to confess her in his own special way….
"Geet……go get fresh….today I cancel all the meetings….be ready for me I will come and pick you up…"
He said and she smiled knowing his intensions…..she turned to leave feeling shy thinking about her date with maan…but when she was about to exit the room he pulled her into his embrace once again expressing her that he don't want her to leave even for a second….she shied and pushed him away went out bringing a bright smile on his face….
He sat on his chair running his fingers through his hair controlling his desire….then he called adi to cancel all meetings today and take care of the office…
She sat in her room blushing about the evening which is going to come….her first date with maan…she was very excited…. She went to the beauty parlor….to make herself more beautiful for her maan….she also went shopping to get a beautiful dress to wear in the evening….after shopping she reached her room to find a beautiful gift box….
There was a note on it…which was written…
"To my misty
from Maan"
She got excited to see the gift sent by maan…she opened and her eyes popped out to see the most beautiful saree….
She blushed and her heartbeat raised thinking about the evening….she got ready and was waiting for maan….then she heard the knock on the door….she gasped feeling that it would be maan…but to her disappointment it was driver sent by maan….
She got in the car and reached the place where maan ordered the driver….it was an deserted place and it was dark…she got scared and called out for maan….then suddenly from the back a strong arms wrapped around her petite waist….
"Who is that?" she screamed getting scared…..
"Shh….it is me maan"…
He whispered near her ear making her relax…
"Maan you scared me…."
She shouted breaking the hug…but maan grabbed her waist again gluing his front with her back…..she blushed feeling the close proximity of them….
"Close your eyes..."
He said with a deep tone….she did as he said…then he blind fold her…
"Maan…"
She tried to remove it but maan stopped and replied…
"Geet…just for few minutes then you will come to know…believe me..."
"I believe you maan…"
She replied to him for which he smiled and felt very happy to have his jaan this close…
Then he made her to walk by holding her hands supporting her through each step…After few minutes her blind fold was removed and she rubbed her eyes to adjust her vision…then her eyes popped out seeing the most beautiful cottage…it was like a paradise….
When they were in college she used to tell maan about her dream cottage…how that cottage should be…each and everything….
Now her dream cottage is before her…just like she dreamt of….
"Maan this is so beautiful…it is like my…"
"Your dream cottage…."
He hugged her from the back and replied near her ear...
"It is our paradise geet….I built this for us as you dreamt of…this place is to share our happiness to share our feelings….I want to gift this to you geet…this place is far away where no one can disturb us…here it will be you and me…"
She got tears in her eyes hearing his words….she was so happy to have him in her life and at the same time curse herself for giving him pain for all these years….he turned her to face him…she looked down not able to meet his eyes…he lovingly made her look at him and wiped those pearls which are coming out of her hazels…
"Geet…don't…"
He said while wiping them off…
"I love you geet…"
He confessed and she instantly hugged him giving her acceptance…he broke the hug and they both went inside their paradise…she was aww seeing the beauty inside the cottage…it was just like she explained to maan just like she dreamt of…. Everywhere in that cottage there is the picture of her… she was very happy….this day has become a very special day for her…Maan took her to the arrangements he made….
There was a beautiful arrangement done by maan for their romantic dinner date…there was table for two and all her favorite dishes…there was a music playing in the background which is also her favorite one…
He made her to face him and took her face between his palms …and kissed her fore head….
"I love you geet… I am so happy today….really I was waiting for this moment for 10 years…..you are very important in my life… important than anything….be with me geet…forever…."
Saying this he kneel down before her and took her hand in his….he took a ring from his pocket….
"Will you marry me geet?"
She was on cloud nine totally stunned…words are not enough to express her happiness…tears started to come down from her hazels…. She nodded expressing her acceptance….he got overjoyed hearing her acceptance… Immediately he slipped the ring in her finger and kissed on top of it… he stood up and took her into a tight hug feeling her every inch….. She also responded and wrapped her arms around him tightly leaving no air to pass between them….
They broke the hug and maan looked intently into geet's almond shaped eyes….he could find the love for him for which he carved for so many years…he feels like the most richest maan in the world having his jaan by his side….he made he sit down and he also sat opposite…they had their dinner talking about their happiness they shared long time back and he stood up to change the music…
He raised his hands to dance with her…. for which she obliged and took his hand….he slowly wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer….she blushed feeling his closeness….
They both moved rhythmically along with the music…they both were lost in each other's eyes….everything is just perfect for geet…they way she dreamt of…. He pulled her more closer plastering his full length with her….she was looking down not able to meet his intense gaze…he slowly lifted her face to make her look at him….his fingers started to slowly trace her face very smoothly….his another hand which is on her waist was feeling her bare skin caressing it making her to close her eyes in submission….he moved closer to her lips and slowly pulled her lower lips with his teeth making her gasp….then he slowly tasted her lower lip wetting it with his tongue….finally he took her lips fully in his kissing her passionately with all his love….his one hand went to her nape holding her head to seek his full entry into her mouth…..his another hand was caressing her waist very smoothly….her arms wrapped around his neck pulling his closer to deepen the kiss….his tongue entangled with her tasting each other…. They felt breathless and let a gap between their lips…but only for a sec then again he plugged his lips to her this time very aggressively pushing her to the nearby wall….they were madly kissing each other pouring their love which held them back for 10 years…..after kissing her lips he left her and rested their foreheads breathing heavily….
"I love you geet…." he confessed….. She looked into his eyes and hugged him tightly responding to his confession…
After their romantic date maan said to geet that they will go and meet geet's dad as he wanted to see him….geet understood maan's feelings because more than her only her dad understood maan very well….so she agreed and they both reached Mumbai the next day…. They both reached to the hospital in the morning…Maan went and sat next to geet's dad… he had tears seeing him lying unconscious...Maan took his hands in between his and then he heard geet crying…
"Dad wake up na look maan came here to see you…..please wake up dad…"
These 10 years she was controlling herself seeing her dad's condition….but today she wanted her dad to see that she is happy….she wanted him to see her marriage…. She wanted him to see them live happily just the way he dreamt of….she started to jerk him asking him to wake up….she was crying very badly…. Maan went near her and held her shoulders as he was not able to see her cry like this….she was jerking and shouting "WAKE UP DAD…" but there was no use…. not able to see her dad she instantly hugged Maan bitterly crying…Maan's heart was paining seeing his jaan crying like this….he tried to console her….
"Jaan please…..please stop crying…"
He tried by rubbing her back trying to soothe her pain…but she was not stopping…Suddenly maan noticed that her dad fingers were slightly moving….then his hand jerked a little…. Maan suddenly broke the hug and went near to check if it is real…. Geet got confused seeing maan…
"What happened maan?"
She went near asking him….
"Geet…. I noticed some movement in uncle geet… he moved geet…"
She was shocked then she went out yelling for doctor….after doctor the finished his check up….he came out to maan and geet who were waiting restlessly…
Seeing the doctor both went near him and waited for his words…
"Miss Geet…. I can see there is improvement in his condition and I think he will be back from his coma very soon…..I cannot assure when but he will come along soon…. All the best…"
