Epilogue:
J: Ma'am your next client has arrived
G: Thanks Jenny... guide them to the conference room... will meet you there
J: right ma'am
Geet enters the conference room and she extends her hand to greet the new clients
G: hello Mr. ... stunned and words didn't come out after seeing the person in front of her... same dark chocolate brown eyes... the same broad shoulders... same gait... how can she not recognize that person who was solely responsible for her fame and success today... who was ... is... and will always be in her heart...
Geet control your emotions... That was just a dream... he wouldn't know anything...nor will he ever feel anything for you...
M: Maan Singh Khurana... Hello Ms. Geet Handa... Have we met before... you look quite familiar?
G: Leaving a sigh... with a bit choked voice... she replied... no we haven't... can we get started with the requirements.
M: Oh... Yes... we require your service in determining the feasibility of one of our projects...
G: Ok... provide us the grant. We will revert back after analysing the whole project.
M: It's a government contract to build 10000 houses in flood affected areas... It will be built in 3 stages... foundation, super structure and then the complete structure. We need your assistance in assessing various statutory implications.
She could hardly hear what he was saying... She was lost in capturing all his guestures, that attitude which was oozing out in his words...
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
Ik ladka ik ladki ki yeh kahani hai nayi
Ik dooje se hue juda Jab ik dooje ke liye bane
G: Babaji bhi kamal kar the hai... phele kehthe hai spane dekho phir kehthe hai woh sirf sapne ko chodo haqikat mein jeyo... aur phir itni sare khushi dethe hai ki samalna mushkil hojaye aur phir use sapna bana dethe hai... jab samal ne lagthe hai tab phir se use sapne se humare samane le athe hai...
Tumse dil jo lagaya toh jahaan maine paaya
Kabhi socha na tha yoon meelon door hoga saaya
Kyun khuda tune mujhe aisa khwaab dikhaya
Jab haqeeqat mein use todna tha
Her whole concentration was on the man in front of her... how they had spent the time together in the dream... Though she came long way from that day still she could never part from his dream.
Teri meri baaton ka har lamha sabse anjaana,
do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
Har ehsaas mein tu hai har ik yaad mein tera afsaana
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
She would spend her every free second in the same dream. She wanted to treasure ever second alas her bad luck tears were blocking her view... She so much wanted to be consumed in his spell and speaks out all those achieved in this past one year... How much she wished it was all true... par maang ne se thodi sab mil jata hai...
Sara din beet jaaye, Saari raat jagaye
Bas khayal tumhara lamha lamha tadpaye
Yeh tadap keh rahi hai mit jaaye faasle
Tere mere darmayaan hai Jo saare
Not able to bear the pain she made an excuse of important call and came out of those walls to compose herself... giving charge to her assistant Jenny to handle the rest of the formalities... Jenny was more than shocked as her boss never seemed so distracted... fumbling... and also so venerable... but kept quite seeing the client...
Ik dooje se hue juda Jab ik dooje ke liye bane
Teri meri baaton ka har lamha sab se anjaana
Do lafzon mein yeh Bayaan na ho paaye
Har ehsaas mein tu hai har ik yaad mein tera afsaana
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
M: When can I get this report as my further decisions will be based on this?
J: Sir... we usually study and report it in a day's time
M: well I don't have that much time... You can charge me more for the express service.
J: we don't take up such kind of service but still I would check with ma'am.
Geet who was just outside hearing there conversation came in.
G: Mr. Khurana... We will do it on priority basis and you will have it in another 2 hours.
M: that will be really great... I have some work near by... will see you in 2 hours...
Geet not wanting leave any chance to fulfil her hearts desire: Mr. Khurana... we can finish it much faster If you could join us in the compiling the report... it will save our time in searching and understanding of your project...
M: in that case... we should work together
Maaneet start working on the report together with Geet stealing glance of her Maan from corner of her eyes...
Sametime her mobile rings...
Teri meri, meri teri prem kahani hai mushkil
Do lafzon mein yeh bayaan na ho paaye
Hearing the ringtone both look into eachothers eyes... Her eyes were telling same words and depicting the pain she is feeling... while his eyes could read her every unsaid word and calm her with just his gaze...
They were brought to reality with another round of ring. Both felt awkward and she just excused from there picking the call...
G: haan Papa... boliye
P: puttar thuje yaad dilane phone kiya ki aaj ghar jaldi ana... ghar main mehmaan anewale hai...
G: Ji papa... kuch urgent kaam agayi hai... jithni jaldi katham hojaye gi utni jaldi ajaoungi...
P: teek hai puttar...
G: tears formed at the corner of eyes to spill out...get a grip over your heart Geet... This was supposed to be happening... It's only his appearance all those words he spoke was all there in your heart... jo mere mann mein hoti hai wahi unki suban pe reh thi hai...You can't be week not infront of him...
Geet comes back to seat with full concentration as it's her Maan's project... she didn't want to get anything wrong... she was all set to impress him he being the client will come back to her for next projects too...how could she even think to leave such a chance to meet him again and again... Maan was amazed at the girl in front of him her dedication in the work was the first thing which he noticed... She prioritizes the work to according to the need of her client...
G: Mr. Khurana... here is your report... go through it... if any changes you want... let me know
M: Thank you Ms. Geet... sure you did save my day...
She missed a beat on hearing her name from that m shaped lips...
G: Pleasure is all mine.
M: your fees...
G: Nothing... Well it's the first assignment and you yourself were involved in it...
M: But... Geet cuts him
G: May be next time...
M: You are stubborn... If you change your mind then you can send across the bill to our office... then I will take your leave now...
And the next second he walks out of her life or only from her office was all she could ponder about.
