CHAPTER 1
Metallic silver santro zoomed in the empty roads of Delhi on dark night of one of the celebrated nights India. If you are single then you can very generously call it as just another day of the year but if you are stuck by love bug you can call it valentine's day. Whatever name you offer it wasn't one of the best days in geet handa's life who at present mistook her poor four wheeler to be a flight and trying her luck on flying it with the help of her not so good friend Mr. Alcohol.The time of night where everyone are busy entertaining their respective partners geet was only romancing her new found companion Mr.Alcohol whom she met only a couple of hours ago. But this isn't how she wished to spend her day. Exactly 24 hours ago she was twisting and turning in her bed anticipating The V-Day when she was hopefully to be in a relationship. She was prepared with the response for shaleen's proposal alas that never happened.
Geet handa , 24 years old architect had lived all her life alone. Her parents and brother died in a plane crash when she was just 10 and since then her life was bounded to hostel . Her grandfather was top businessman of his times and her father himself never failed to keep up to his father's standards so geet never suffered for money but only if it could buy love and affection. She was intelligent enough to understand that she is all alone in this vast world and so spent most of her childhood and teenage trying to built a brave girl burying the innocent and pampered soul inside her. All she had to call her family was sister nova who was her caretaker back in orphanage and a few so called friends she made after moving to Delhi. All geet has to do is take care of the business which her father's trusted assistant fairly taken care till she completed her studies. Geet was hesitant to take a huge step alone and she decided to team up with her college friends shaleen, deepta and Nitin. Geet was more than happy to join her friends in business as she really cared for them and her little crush growing on shaleen favored. All the years back in school she was busy preparing herself strong for this world that she didn't find time to build a love life until she met shaleen back in first year of college. He was completely different from any guy she has seen before. He wasn't formal, he was caring and jovial. That attracted her the most and they both became good friends and later joined by deepta and nitin. Geet didn't know if her feelings towards shaleen can be called love but she found him as a key to escape her loneliness hence she was sure to give a positive answer for his proposal.
Everything seemed to go well until The V-Day when she decided it's high time she did get some commitment from shaleen as she realized the feeling to be mutual with the flirty grins and subtle hints he gave him about their relationship taking next level. A colleague confessed that he accompanied shaleen to buy a ring before Valentine's Day and geet was sure whose finger it's going to adore. On the V-Day when she arrived at shaleen's house a little earlier out of excitement she saw Deepta's car parked near the gate. Geet thought may be all are busy planning surprise for her and she didn't want to be embarrassed being here so early. She decided to sneak to poolside and wait a good 30 minutes before entering. The window near poolside gave her a good view of the living room and also she could hear their voices. Geet spotted Nitin sitting in a chair and shaleen on his knees with a ring while deepta was standing beside giggling.
" do u think she will be impressed with this ? " shaleen asked nitin after delivering his well planned speech.
"Yeah dude.. I don't know why you are bothering so much " nitin said relaxing on the chair.
" what if she refuses " shaleen asked maintaining a doubtful face .
" do you think she is in refusing state. Come on she is smitten by you " Deepta said
" if she refuses we are dead soul" shaleen said
" It has been 5 years now and geet is completely convinced that you have feelings for her and you are her Mr.Right if this day goes well and you marry her our future is settled." Nitin said
" we all started this as a game to impress geet so that we can befriend one of the richest girls of our college you know what is ironical she actually started develop liking towards shaleen that earned us direct entry to The Handa Constructions and if she agrees to your proposal in future you will own Handa constructions just imagine " deepta said taking a long breath placing her hand on her heart with a dreamy expression.
The smile that was prominent in geet's face till now vanished leaving her startled. It took couple of minutes for her to digest what they are talking about. The more she listened to their talks the more she got to know how she was fooled by her so called friends. Everything that she cherishes as her best memories are nothing but a cheap joke for them. If she had realized it earlier may be the pain would have reduced but after building high hopes she felt betrayed. This betrayal scared her more than loneliness. Was everything that she thought she was are just fake. Isn't she good enough for true friendship? Is she so stupid not to distinguish between good and bad? This heartbreak was heavy that can't be washed with mere drops of tears. She would have cared less if shaleen wasn't in love with her but all this is a drama that hit her wrong nerve. Hating herself for trusting such pigs geet didn't wait a second before grabbing bear case from there and run to her car. Thus started this F-1 type driving in streets of Delhi.
With one hand balancing the steering wheel geet gulped the bottle before throwing it mercilessly against the lamp post breaking the bottles in pieces like her heart broke. Geet wasn't a fan of alcohol unless she is depressed in days like this. She has no one to share her problems though alcohol cannot equal a soulful companion it at least makes you forget the pain till it eases.
Struggling hard with her the keys geet managed to open the door of her house. She was used to living alone and no servant allowed in house .She walked in with beer case kicking close the door. Staring at the deserted house she gulped another bottle. She couldn't come to term with the fact that she is betrayed.
" i hate you b***y F****s and i hate myself more for trusting you m*** " geet shouted
With hard hear she did something which she hasn't done in years. Removing her shoes and popping in a chewing gum in her mouth geet entered the room on the farther end of first floor. This was her parent's room when they were alive and geet hasn't entered there in years because she couldn't handle the fact that the room is empty without her parents. Every week a servant who works in office visits there to clean that room and only when geet isn't at home. Today geet is so devastated that she badly wanted the feel of her parents.
She opened the door and entered. It was maintained well she should appreciate the servant. It looked same as it was years ago. Geet's attention shifted to her father's table where he would sit reading a story for her and she would lie in her mother's lap listening to it . Geet always preferred sleeping with her parents than in her room and they never objected. After their death it took her 5 years to sleep without pills. Everything in the room had its own story. Geet took her own time to examine the things and to play the souvenirs. The very first doll that her father gifted her was lying in the middle of the bed. Geet slowly caressed that with her hand and kissed its cheeks. Even after years the place soothed her. She moved to her parent's photo.
" maa " the word left her mouth after years
All of a sudden thousands of emotions stimulated in her making it difficult for her even to breath. She broke down hugging her parent's picture. Geet confided herself to the corner of the bed placing her head on the pillow once supported her parents. Her eyes fell on the wired shaped stone that her father bought in an auction. The stone had the face of a man and it attracted her so much when she was young but her father never allowed her to play with it as it was one of the most valuable historic pieces. Geet picked the stone and examined it.
"Are you looking at me? " she asked surprising herself . Even after years of loneliness she was never the kind of person who speaks to photos or non living things which happens mostly in cases like hers .but the stone was very attractive and the small hollow that resembled human eyes was very powerful that geet for a minute felt as if she is seeing a human.
" you have been all alone in this room and i all alone in this world " she giggled alcohol was showing its effects on her.
" if i had known you were alone i would have made you my friend " she said
She slowly caressed the edge of the stone.
" but what if you also betray me ? " the b word automatically made her cry.
" i ... ha..te... ev.r.y.ne " she said between sobs " everyone is bad " she sniffed
" you could have been my trusted friend right ? " she asked and as answer she shook the stone as if saying no
" i m all alone now no one to care for me . No one to catch if i fall, no one to talk to me, no one to listen to my complains. i just don't find a reason to live . i m all alone . i wish you were my friend " she hugged the stone to her along with her parent's photo
"I m all alone i wish you were my friend you were with me "she kept whispering these lines till she fell asleep.
The sun's bright rays didn't make much difference to the room as it was totally secured with curtains. Geet took her own time to open her drowsy eyes and she had no hurry to disturb her sleep. She snuggled close to her pillow that was warm and hard than usual. She remembered sleeping in her parent's room so didn't bother to open her eyes to check the pillow until she felt the pillow moving.
" why are you moving pillow " she made herself comfortable on the pillow.
Geet had another half an hour of good sleep before she was disturbed from her sleep. She picked the call without checking her caller id and sat cross legged on the bed still her eyes closed.
"yes Mr.desai i understand ... it will be ready soon... yup i ll meet you later tomorrow " after discussing some business fact with her client Mr.desai geet stretched suppressing a yawn and turned to take her bag and scarf from bed when she received the shock of her life .
