Epilogue

Jessie looked at Maan then at Geet, taking her handbag; she stood up and gave Geet a desperate look and ran away. Geet was shocked then realized that Maan heard and saw everything including her and Jessie's conversations.

"I...I...I..." Geet said trying to find an excuse but turned red.

"Save it, I heard all" he smirked.

*The Caf was empty*

Geet got up and started to move but Maan blocked her way. "I need to go..." Geet mumbled.

"You are trying to run away from the truth Geet, I heard you, why don't you say it in front me..." Maan said softly.

Geet's forehead wrinkled with worries. "We…I...no...we can't do that..." Geet said shaking her head.

"Why? You know...you came at home, in my house; you took care of my family and then you claimed it's not possible...?" Maan asked.

Geet frowned and said "It's really not possible, we're from different planets; you're a rich man" she said.

"So? So, I don't have a heart, huh!" Maan smirked. "No" Geet said worried but still gentle, "you know it's not achievable..."

Geet moved backwards while Maan forwarded.

"We...we're from different planets, totally opposite of each other" Geet exclaimed.

"So? What if we're from opposite planets...huh, it doesn't mean that I can't..." Maan said and left his sentence incomplete. He blocked her through the counter.

"I wouldn't say that when I saw you at the airport" Maan chuckled inches from her nose.

Geet blushed at his closeness and then it hit her. "You...you remember...our...airport...!?" she asked.

"You can make sentences you know" Maan smirked and continued "why would I forget the first meeting with this angel with angelic eyes, huh".

"Then why you never mention...when we met at school...you...!?" Geet said shocked.

"You can still make sentences, huh..." he grinned. "Well, I didn't think of having a crush on you and I didn't want you to tell others about the cowboy outfit."

Geet chuckled and asked "yeah, the cowboy outfit, why you wore that!"

Maan scowled as Geet watched cutely.

"I was helping my sister for her theatre, she wanted me to disguise...and then Gran told me; to go to Airport to take mom and dad; since their flight was delayed; I saw you lost and wanted to help you but instead I got mesmerized by your..." he left his sentence again incomplete.

Maan moved a little more closely just then the proprietor of the coffee shop interrupted "no kissing scene please" and pointed to a sign.

"There's a kissing sign!" Geet asked confused. "Made just for me and you, lucky you" he winked.

Geet blushed and said "We can't...not possible" she mumbled.

"Why?" He asked tired of her stubbornness. "I need to go" she said unblocking his arms and said "my parents are coming...today; I need to help aunt and uncle" grabbing her handbag she left.

*Meanwhile*

Just then Vicky saw Jessie coming out quickly out of the coffee shop.

"So you're leg is okay now" he said sarcastically.

"No your business" Jessie snapped pacing at the parking lot worried. When Maan came out Jessie started to go following Geet to the other zone of the parking lot.

"Wait a minute Jessie...nice plan..." he said aloud enough for Vicky to heard; who was standing there.

"For making a fool out of Vicky; by faking your leg accidents and making him waste 3 hours while Geet came to my house...nice" Maan said impressed. Vicky got his mouth hanging with shock watching Jessie with his big eyes.

"Your eyes will pop out of your head Brute Number 2" she smirked and tossed her hair grinning "he and you are such fools that it's easy to make you fooled" she grinned and went away.

"Is it just me or she's always rude with you ever since we entered this school?" Maan asked Vicky. Vicky went red and whispered something in Maan's ears.

Maan rolled his eyes and said "tonight, it's Mission Cupid..." he chuckled at a perplexed Vicky and said "I'll break in Handa Family's dinner".

"Oh Mother, I'm so happy" Geet said dressed in her salwar kameez but still very pretty; seated on the table; they were having dinner.

"I'm very happy with your results" her Father said approvingly while eating. "Stop talking while eating" Aunt scolded her Father. "Alright, Di".

"Me, I'm happy you took care of your uncle and your auntie" her Mother said happily. Her Aunt and her Mom were winking madly; her Auntie had told her about that Maan guy.

"Maan, you're late!" Vicky hissed. Maan came looking awesomely handsome and Vicky grinned "dude, you even took a bath to impress the family!"

"Who's knocking at this hour?!" Uncle said. "wait", Geet said and paused "I'll check".

She went and opened the door ajar and her eyes went wide. She stood there gawking at a grinning Maan.

"Y-Y-yes" she stammered her heart pounding. "It's Mrs…Mrs...Mrs. Mehra's relative; she missed the house" Geet fibbed and went red. "Her house is next there" Geet pointed to the street and was about to close the door thinking "what is he doing here?"

Maan smirked and said "Oh please; I'm not here for Mrs. Mehra...where's your parents?" Maan said grinning at a startled Geet and entered the dinning room even though Geet was trying to push him out.

"Who's he?" Her Father asked staring at Maan who was fixing his tie.

"Oh..." her Aunt looked surprised "he's Maan" she said cleaning her mouth with tissue papers.

"Maan!?" her Mother said a bit excited "it's him!".

"Who's he?" her Father asked confused. "Come Dear" her mother hissed making go-go eyes to her Uncle then at the Father.

"Oh...that Maan..." his Father said and went quiet. Just then his brother growled and said "then what is he doing here..."

"He must have forgotten some notes" Geet said quickly looking at him by making signs with her eyes.

"Stop lying Geet, I didn't come for notes; I came to talk to your parents" he smirked gazing.

"What" Geet spat out at the same time as her angry bulldog type of brother.

"Yes" he said tightening his tie and smirked at a hell-worried Geet. He looked at Geet's father then at her mother; completely ignoring her brother who was clenching his fists.

"Sir, Ma'am...I wanted to tell you that I wish, I want, to marry your daughter..."

There were gasps and Geet stood as a mute statue and could not move.

He ignored everyone just had his attention on her parents "I met her at the airport…" and was interrupted by her mother "oh...so you were her Airport-wala". Maan went red and continued "and I have to admit Ma'am, you're a good manufacturer of angelic eyes and hers...your daughter..." pointing to Geet "has the most beautiful ever...I admit I have a big...more than big crush on Geet but she said that she would never do anything without your permission..." Maan chuckled and said "but...I guess...you can't order love, can you?"

Maan scratched his head and mumbled "I forgot what I was supposed to say". His Father was trying to hide his grin while the Mother was smiling and their lovely daughter; the queen of the day was seeing stars.

Maan, on his knees; took out a small note from his pocket and read "I know I'm a bad student; but not that bad; I can look after my Father's business and I'm a very good brother; Geet can give you proofs..." he paused and glanced back at the note "I may be a terrible sleeper; your daughter gave me the demon name of the sleeping king...but I'm a good cook...and..." he said looking at Geet with his mysterious brown again "and..." he stopped for thinking and continued "I'm bad with long hearty speeches as I'm an introvert" he gave a small chuckle and said "but I'm not that bad..." he winked secretly at Geet.

The whole house was silent for about two seconds when her brother glared at Maan and stood threatening him to get out then her mother stopped his son and while glancing at Geet's father and said "we like you..." pointing to Maan.

"What!" her brother thundered.

"I love your courage...very brave...and I am very impressed" her father said while the mother nodded. The mother continued replying "we would be happy to have you like a son in law if Geet agrees to your proposal".

Everyone cheered except the brother. Geet glanced fearfully at him and then blushed to her roots. Maan grinned smirking at Geet he said "that's my effect on her; she goes flushing..."

"You're not that handsome" Geet snapped and flushed again. Maan smirked and said "that means if I'm not that handsome, I'm handsome enough for you to handle" and her father just laughed.

"Well, if Geet agrees..." his brother said in a serious voice "I have a condition..."

Geet watched her brother dreadfully…

"I can't believe this..." Maan said playing with his small 5 year old child. "What you can't belive" Geet snapped throwing Maan's smelly clothes on him. "Hey, you're going to hurt baby..." Geet just glared.

"It's such a shame for my reputation" Maan said. "Your brother did not let me meet you again till you reached 21 years old, till I don't have my own business to get married...I did not even kiss you, it was just the so shameful for me...do you realize that we kissed on the night of our engagement; so many years; I just waited for us to be together..." said Maan.

Geet went smiled shyly; she did not blush; she got used to Maan's flirty skills and his compliments. Maan threw the clothes on the floor and dragged her to him, kissing her forehead.

See you soon! 😳
