Part 3

While on the one hand, Geet, in her flight, was eagerly waiting to get landed in dubai, Maan rushed into the delhi airport, pulling his carry with one hand and talking on the phone, he was holding in other hand. The security guard on the entrance enquired about the passport that he took out from the back pocket of his jeans and showed him, still being in conversation with his boss.

"yes sir, I will try my best to be back soon but I badly needed this vacation" Maan lied smoothly as he pulled his hand carry while getting inside.

"That we know Maan...Neeta Lula's interview seems to be a big success. You truly worked hard but we were thinking that you should have completed this Geet Handa's article first before you should have take a break" Suresh was just like a boss who thinks about his company's success first but still, he couldnt be over bossy with Maan. A Gem he would hate to loose ever.

"I know Sir...Like you I too wanna be fone with this article asap before anyother magizine publish it but I cant give my best with my tired self and I want to give my 100 % to this like I do...This break was too essential fo that" He emotiobally blackmails Suresh, kbowing how much he admired hardworking people.

"That's surly a great effort but be back soon"

"Dont worry Sir. I will be back in a week" Maan commited. "Ok Sir, I need to go. You take care" Maan said as he get in the que of the luggage clearance.

"Enjoy your vacation. Have fun" Suresh wished before he hung up.

As Maan boarded the plane, Geet came out from the Dubai International Airport. She searched through the crowd before she spotted her one of the old friend Shaina waiting for her in their. Many gazes were stuck at her right now as se came in hurry and completely forget to take help of a disguise attire but before anyone could approach her for a picture or autograph, she rushed away with Shaina.

"How is Pankaj now?" Geet asked in a stressed tone.

"He is better. Thankfully the incident didn't effect his backbone...but his one leg got fractured" Shaina updated her as she put Geet luggage in the back seat of her car and get on the driving seat while Geet took the passenger one.

The visible relieve on her face was hard to miss but still she was tensed.

"I so dont know why he couldn't take care of himself...Why the hell he needs to take part in this stupid basketball game." Her voice cracked up towards the end.

Shaina put her hand on her's in silence support. She knew her friend better than anyone else. When world can see the smile on her face, she was the one who always knew whats hurting her the most at that moment.

"You cant stop him Geet...And beside, He has to do this...He doesnt need our pity...He dont deserves that" Shaina started but Geet quickly cut ger in between.

"I dont pity him Shy" She argued.

"I know...I know" She calmed her down quickly. "But do try to understand this from his point of view...He surly considers it that even when its love for you" Shy explained gently.

Geet let out a long breath before she digged herself back into the seat. Her hands covers her strained face for a moment before she pulled them down.

"Then tell me what should I do...Stay back and keep watching him hurting himself? Do you think I can do that?"

Shaina was speechless for a moment as her eyes were fixed on the road and mind fixed on Geet's word.

"Geet...I know you love him too much to bear that ...but yaar, you need to let him develop his self confidence...He needs to stand up on his ownself to get through this long journey of life...You cant be with him everytime...He have to learn to look afyer himself"

A sarcastic laugh came out from Geet's mouth before her eyes filled with tears.

"He needs to stand up...He needs to stand up" She repeated Shy's word "...But the problem is he couldn't do that...Is not this a life joke" Geet was on the edge of crying.

"Calm down yaar...Control yourself"Shaina rubbed her arm, while looking ahead.

"See we are about to reach there...You dont want Pankaj to see you this torn right" Geet shook her head as she wiped her tears with her palms and braced herself.

"Now thats my brave Geet"

In few more minutes, they parked the car in the parking area of the hospital and get our. Shaina knew about Pankaj's room so they directly went on the 2nd floor.

Geet spotted her loveleen maasi in the corridor and rushed to her.

"Maasi"...

"Geet..." Loveleen maasi turned and pulled her in a warm hug that provide some assurance to the fast beated heart of her.

"Maasi, Howz he now?" Though Shaina explained her earlier, but knowing it from Loveleen Maasi, was a altogether different thing. She was the motherly figure in her life

"He is better now...Why dont you go in and check...I was just waiting for you to come so I can go and make some soup for him at home. You know how choosy he is in these matters" Geet for the first time in last 12 hours smiled at her comment.

Loveleen patted Geet's face before she kissed her cheek and left with Shaina.

Geet slowly opened the door to hear the commentry of a basketball match filling the envoirnment and in between that, was the cheering of that on bed who was half laying, half seated on the bed.

"No matter what happens, You are never going to leave this evil of a sport right?" She commented as she get in and closed the door behind her while the young man, of just 17 years smirked.

"You know di, I love this sport...The day, I stop watching it, or playing it...there would be nothing left for me to do in this life" Pankaj push forward his hand as Geet placed her hand in his.

"So you mean that this sports mean much more to you thank your Di and Maasi?"

"Di please...We have been through this lots of time" Pankanj got irritated and pulled his hand back but Geet didnt leave it, instead sh vend and place a soft kiss on his forehead.

"We love you Pichku...That's why we also got hurt whenever you get hurt" Geet tried to mqke him understand that irritate him more.

"Stop that di...I dont need anyone's pity or condolance...If I am such a burden then..." And before he could complete, Geet put her hand on his mouth.

"Shut up...Who said you are a burden?" She was angry now.

"You all always make me feel like one...I agree that I am an invalid...there are many things that I...I for sure cant do on my own...I need assistance...But there are many things that I can do...That I am actually happy to do...and playing a wheelchaired volleyball is one of that" Pankaj spoke up.

"And if you dont want me to do that then you can tell me...but then necer force me to go out and meet people in whom I.have no.interest...Who will look down at me and will show there concern in which I am.least interested...I.am so fed up of all that now" And right now, Geet got to see the inside of his baby brother. Though he was just 17, who was affected by Polio when he was 4, but the time has matured him enough to let him know, how can.he build up his life. Probably, Shaina was right as always.

Geet wiped the lone tear from.her face and run his hand on his angry brother's head who pushed it away. He was sitting on the bed, crossing his hands on his chest, looking away from her.

Geet smiled seeing him and poked his waist side, perfectly knowing how ticklish he was. Pankaj tried his best to keep up with his angry avatar but couldn't control the tickle that he was feeling while Geet kept on tickling on his weak spots. Atlast he gave up and started laughing as Geet's laughter got mixed in that.

"Ok...hahaha...ok...En...Enough Di...Ohhh" He said between his giggles and Geet finally stopped.

"So howz the leg now?" Geet asked a moment later as she took a seat beside him.

"Can barely feel anything..." Pankaj replied carelessly.

"Hmmm..." Geet put a hand on his plastered leg. Pankaj noticed the sadness in her eyes as he mentioned about his leg and surly, he didnt like to see her sister like tgat.

"By the way, seems like the white color of my plaster, need a colorful autograph by India's rising up star... " He pulled out a marker from.under his pillow that he kept safely when his groupmates and coach came to meet him earlier. They were pretty concerned as Pankaj fell down during a national wheelchaired basketball match and was hurt.

Geet smiled at this lovely gesture of his brother who always knew how to keep smiling even after facing so many problems in his life.

"That you can surly have..." She held the marker and gave an autograph, starting that as My lovely lil brother, Pichku...

"Diii ...Not Pichkuuu...My girlfriends will laugh at me..." He argued childishly...

"Oho...now you have girlfriends too...But even in front of your girl friends, I will call you...PICHKUUU"

Geet giggled.

"No, Dont you dare say that..."

"Who will stop me haan..." And that argument went on as both brother and sister were not ready to back out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Few hours later:

Maan emerged from the airport and was greeted by on of his old journalist friend who was now settled in dubai and was working for an international magazine.

"So you got any news...".

"My man followed her right from here and according to him, she went to American Welfare Hospital with one of her friend" Maan friend, Vikas replied.

"Hmm...But any news to whom sge went yo see? I mean someone from her family or a friend?" Maan inquired further.

"No idea man...actually she straight went up without inquiring at reception and the hospital doesnt allow anyone else than a relative to meet the patients, so may be, its someone she is associated with" Vikas replied that made Maan went deep in thought.

"Anyways, why dont you come with me to my home and rest for a while. I am sure my man will report me if he get to know anything more..." Vikas offered and Maan agreed. He needs to have full energy to get on with Geet.

His earlier experienced with her proved that she is no easy to handle but Maan was just that kind of journalist who love to tackle wild cats and know there secrets and Geet was just that one.

After having rest for two hours, Maan got up and took a warm bath before he joined Vikas for the lunch.

"Maan, Vinay just called to tell me that Ms. Geet Handa just left the hospital with a boy on wheelchair...According to the description, the boy seems to be a teenager, around 17- 18 years old and now, she went to a villa which is owned by her Maasi, Ms Loveleen Pracha..."

"Thats surly a great news Vikas..." Maan said while munching onto the roasted chicken.

"So what do you plan to do next..." Vinay inquired.

"I need to keep an eye on her yaar...she is such a...ummm...self absored kind of girl...she dont want anyone to know about her life...and Its my job to know...plus now I myaelf is too curious to know about her" Maan explained that made Vinay smile sheepishly...

"She got badly on your mind...haan..." he commented that made Maan laugh.

"Ahh...nothing like that...just plain curious... plus she is my next article...so I had to get information about her cause seriously, she is not going to com and tell me all by herself" Maan explained further more.

"So whats next?...Whats your plan now?" Vinay left the topic for now as he knew Maan not gonna answered that.

"First, I need to find a place to live near her villa...anything, an apartment, a villa...so that I can have notes about her daily routine and also could get to know about her family life" Vinay heard his plan and came with a quick solution.

One of my friend is in real estate...I think he can help you" And that was all Maan right now wanted to hear.
