Present
...he curled up in the couch and Slowly drifted to sleep waiting for calls...
**********************
6 Hours ago...
Geet ran out from KM...panting...she took a cab and gave the driver an address...reaching that place she took another cab and went to the train station...Thank god daadima booked a ticket for her by nakul long before...so no one saw geet in the counter...and for that no one held any info. About her..
.
Geet went in the train and it started moving...it was a small cabin...only for geet...she laid on the upper bed and switched off the light...
She was so tired ... upar se 4 days se emotional trauma...that's why she immediately slept...
after maybe an hour or two...geet woke up only to see her journey half done...she is not there yet...
she rubbed her eyes...still there was fear in her...is it this easy to outsmart The Maan Singh Khurrana??? She changed her dress and then took her bag to see what else is in there...
Toothpaste,brush,5 sets of dress,2 saaris,her medicines,towel,candles,matches,soap,napkins,powder,perfume...she smiled weekly...suddenly she saw a packet...she opened it...there was 50,000 cash...her mind automatically turned to the past...
Flashback...
...Maan threw some bundles of note in her face...
sam said...''oh! maan! Ye kya kar rahe ho...! Ye to kaam paregi na...!...isse to aur chahiye...issi liye to daadima ko phasaya...''
****************
Geet snapped open her eyes and wiped the tears...
****************
Geet opened the door of her new home...her new life...
It was a very small studio apartment...but very sweet...geet's lips smiled truly...after so many days...
She closed the door and tied her hair in a high bun...tied her dupatta on her waist...and started brooming the home...
After 5 hours...Geet finished her work...it looked very nice...small...but very nice...
She was ex-hosted...so she took a bath and slept quickly...cause she had to join her office tomorrow...
Next morning...
Geet went to the office...it was a big office...with people working and running here and there...
She went to the reception ...there was no one there...
She curiously went to a cabin...opened the door and peeped in...
A man...probably 25...24...was literally shouting at a girl...who was making a tensed face and eating a hot dog...
''how can she quit pinki...i really need a P.A ...and that too now.!!!
''sir...what can i say sir...she called me and said me to pass the news to u...''
U know what...i'm not gonna hire her back!...how dare she!!...she called me bossy!!!...i'm the boss of this office...! I'm supposed to be bossy!!!!
''Haan sir...!''
''what do u mean by 'haan' ???? u'r gonna be my P.A...ok???
''Plz plz bro...aap ne promise kia tha ki iss diwali se pehle hi mujhe reception ka kaam mein shift karenge...mujhe P.A nehi ban na...''
''toh P.A kisse banau !!!!...uss larki ko...jo bol nehi sakte...???''
Pinki stopped her bite and looked him curiously...
''Woh...SDji ne recommend kia...she can't speak...for the typing post...''
''Hey bro...she can't speak...u'r so bossy...she'll be obedient...i'm good at reception...give me the reception post...make her u'r P.A...what an idea sirji...plz plz plz ...maan jayiye na...plz plz plz...''
Haan...it's good...! But stop calling me bro at work...and what the...
Why r u eating 24x7...???
Kunal Arora said angrily... snatched her hot dog and threw it away not seeing...which directly went to geet's face...actually it hit her
eyes...
Pinki gasped...they both rushed to her...pinki said...'' i'll bring wet tissue...''and left...
kunal said...'' i'm so sorry...i did'nt see u...i was scolding my little sister and i ...''
And his tounge got tied seeing her face...
So beautiful !!!...his mind screamed !!
some sauce went to geet's eyes...she was rubbing cause it was burning...
Pinki rushed in with wet tissues and wiped her eyes...geet slowly opened her eyes...only to see Kunal and pinki gaping at her...
''are waah ! Tum to bari khubsurat ho!..''pinki said...no no screamed with happiness...
Geet's nose turned deep red in embarrassment...kunal looked at her face amusingly...how quickly her face showed red hue...
Suddenly...he coughed...
Ahem...ahem...
Both girls looked at him...
''what's u'r name...?''
''g...g...gg...geett...''
Kya...??? kunal didnt hear...but pinki did...
Pinki said,...''Geet...''
''Kya kaam hai yahan?''
She handed her a letter of SD to Kunal...
He opened it and frowned...''saavitri ji ne tumhe send kia...?''
Geet nodded her head...
''Pahle kabhi job ki??''
She shook her head in denial...
''Typing...??''
She excitingly nodded her head ...yes...
''Toh...tumhara naukri pakki...P.A ki post mein...''
Pinki controlled her giggle...she realized ki kunal to gaye...geet's face fell...she looked down...she wanted typing...
Kunal senced that and said unwantedly...''ok...typing waali pakki...but...part time P.A ...only for dictation...woh to jaanti ho na...short hands...???''
''j...j...ji...''
''Are waah...tum to bol bhi sakti ho...!''pinki said happily...
''th...th...thor...thora...thora...''she said smiling shyly...she liked pinki's persona...
''Isse kaam chalega...pinki...take her to her spot and u...u...u...gauri...jaao aur kaam pe laag jaao...
''It's Geet...!!!!'' Pinki said getting angry...and went away pulling her hand.
''...Geet...nice name...''he mummered...and blushed like a fool.
Geet understood her work...and she did very good...all the time Kunal was gaping at her through the blinds...
Her work was done and while working pinki told geet that Kunal isn't her real brother...they used to live at same neighborhood...they grew up together...she is 6 years younger than him...but after pinki's mom's death they shifted to their own home...which is near geet's apartment...
After office hour...
Pinki told her...''chaal geet aaj mein tujhe treat dungi...aaj meri promotion hui hai...aur teri bhi to naukri lagi...!
pinki took her to pizza hut...geet did'nt eat anything but ordered something in parcel...cause she has no food in home...
When it's time to pay the bill...pinki suddenly said...''...''Oye..!...mujhe to 1000 $ kam par rahi hai...! ye pizza hut bhi na!!...tere paas hai geet..? kaal papaji se leke tujhe de dungi...?
geet smiled a little and gave her a note from her bag to the cash counter lady...''thank u ma'm..''
After dropping pinki home geet went home with a rickshaw...it was very difficult and it took so long...as the place is new...it's dark...and most of all she was very scared...as she was alone...
The place she lives in is in a old age community...means...where retired people lives...mostly above 60...that's why after 9:00...the place becomes very dark and quiet...
Fishing the keys out from her bag...she saw lights coming out from her apartments window...strange...she double checked the gas,water and current before leaving...
...But tilting her head a little she got the shock of her life... without thinking anything...she about turned and ran for her life... And the running sound made the person in geet's apartment to look out of the window...to see who made that sound...
MAAN SINGH KHURRANA rushed out from her apartment seeing geet running from back...
