Maan was confused what was with this girl. She was showing different emotions which changed in mere seconds. At first she was crying like she was in immense pain and now laughing is she okay? He went toward her. She was looking even more beautiful when he went up-close. He was awestruck by her beauty and her enchanting laugh.
M: Hey are you okay?
Geet turns her head toward him. Oh my!!! Her eyes are so beautiful and hazel color. He was falling for her. So much innocence in her eyes yet some hidden pain. He was lost in her eyes when Geet's voice brought him back.
G: Yesss!!!!!! (Loudly)
Geet said in an excited manner.
M: I am standing right here you don't need to shout.
G: I know that but you know that when people get old they here loud. Like you
M: I don't here loud and hey... did you called me OLD!
G: yes Grandpa!!!
Geet told him with a giggle. Maan looked at the audacity of the girl calling him. He was the most eligible bachelor of India for God's sake.
M: Just shut up!!!!
G: Grandpa you should not shout at this age, you are too old..
Maan was glaring at her.
G: Looks like Grandpa's angry...
M: Don't call me grandpa
G: Okay Grandpa
Maan glared at her. Geet was just pulling his leg she was acting like her old self.
M: What's your name?
G: Umm Angel
Maan had a flicker of memory of the past but brushed it away for now.
M: What's your real name?
G: Angel is my real name
M: You are a mental case! You know that
G: What did you call me?
Geet got angry and stood up.
M: Mental case!
Maan repeated each word clearly . Geet was angry and turned away.
G: If I am a mental case you are a...a...a...big fat Panda!!!! And that too a Kung Fu Panda. ( Geet moved a little close to him as if scrutinizing his eyes and then said) Well you got the eyes of one.
Geet moves back to her place and then scrunched her nose and turned away in fake anger. And then started smirking as if she mounted a mountain.
Well it was not every day that the Great Maan Singh Khuranna lost an argument and that too by a Ordinary girl. But was she really Ordinary?
M: What did you said?
G: A Big Fat Panda!!!!!!
M: You-
G: Me what
Geet said it with same anger and attitude. Maan was a little scared of her anger.
M: Listen you-
He was again cut off by Geet
G: Oye!! Don't you dare order me?
M: How dare you talk to me like that?
G: Just like you dare to talk to me like that
M: You have no idea who you are messing with if you knew who I am you are going to think twice before-
He was pointing his finger at her but Geet was Geet. She cut him off and pointed her finger at him and said...
G: Oye don't show me your attitude you Panda do you know who I am I am-
Geet was leaning at him and she collapsed. Geet was on top of Maan. And during this her elbow made a hard contact with a stone lying there.
G: Ouchhh!!!!!
M: Angel are you okay?
G: No it hurts
M: Let me see
Maan was seeing it was just a little wound. Geet was looking at him in great concentration. Maan looked at her.
M: What are you looking at?
G: (asked innocently) Panda, are you a doctor?
M: No and stop calling me a Panda!!
G: Okay I'll call you...ummm... (Looks deep in his eyes) Prince because you are really handsome and charming and I have read in fairy tales that a Prince comes and takes away his princess away from the world in his own land, away from all the troubles.
M: Prince ... Me charming and ...handsome???
This was not something new to him as many girls were there to die for. And many had already told him and gave him far more bold complements!
M: Are you kidding me???
G: Yes you are my prince charming and I am your angel...( she tilted her head to the side in a cute manner)
Maan was falling more for her with her sweet, innocent talks. He was looking at her and a smile appeared. Geet on seeing this pulled his cheeks.
G: You look cute when you smile...
M: Don't pull my cheeks... it's irritating.
G: You know what when I was small every one use to pull my cheeks and I also got irritated... but now I miss those people who use to do this... Can you tell me that why these people who you are very close to leave you...
Geet looked desperately in his eyes trying to seek for an answer.
Maan got irritated at first, and then went into a deep thought on the question because he always use to ponder over this question but never succeeded in finding answers... it was as if he himself was asking this question.
Also the question asked by Geet was as if she wasn't drunk at all as if the innocent Geet had turned into a matured woman.
But then somewhere Maan liked her amusing antics. He checked her wound but the wound was not that severe although it was bleeding slightly. In the mean time he got a call from Adi who told that he was needed immediately in the office as the project they were working on is need to be completed by tomorrow or they will not get the contract. So he had to complete the office work till the morning at least. He remembered that not much work is needed as he came here after almost finishing most of it and only an hour work was left. So he decided to leave immediately, but he didn't want to leave his angel all by herself because he knew that she was in a very vulnerable condition and the situation can be dangerous as the big cities are famous for their street crimes. So he decided to ask her where to leave her...
M: Where do you live??? Tell me I will drop u???
G: I live here. (She twirled around while moving towards him)
M: No I am asking you where do you live???Your home???
G: I have no home... It's only a four walled house where no one lives. I am all alone there. (she tilted her head slightly) And you know what I am scared of that place...(now in a crying voice) and you know what somewhere that loneliness kills me. I also get scared sometimes in the night when the light suddenly goes out.
She said this clinging into him and then hugged him as if she was frightened of something. As soon as she hugged him she felt that she was safe in those arms, felt old warmth... as if she is a part of this puzzle piece, as if she belonged here.
Maan felt a sudden shiver when she hugged him, but he was reluctant to hug her back, but he had to do something to console her. Therefore, bought her out of the hug and made her face turn to him, this is when he looked deep into her eyes... Which were so pure, innocent... As if they were holding too much pain that she could not handle.
Maan decided that he cannot leave her in this situation therefore he asked her to come to his office as he has an important work there and from there he will drop her where ever she wants to. First Geet was reluctant to then she decided.
M: Ok if you don't want to go home... You can come with me to the office as I have an important thing to do and from there I will drop you wherever you want.
G: Its ok I can go by myself... I am a big girl.
Geet smiled proudly.
Maan on the other hand raised his eyebrow and said under his breath
M: Yeah BIG GIRL!!! Who still dreams about her prince charming, believes in a fairy tale life, watches animated movies.
M: (Shook his head) it's not right time for you to go alone... You can come with me.
G: (She looked at him suspiciously, narrowing her eyes on him) How do I believe you that you will leave me where ever I want?
Then her already big eyes became bigger in realization and then she yelled...
G: ARE YOU TRYING TO KIDNAP ME??
