Secretly smitten#9 (Thread 10 Link @ Pg 136) - Page 79

"What's is this Maan?" Geet asked appallingly seeing his company papers in place of the marriage one which she had expected but this was beyond her imagination. Why did he have to do this? What she will do of this new responsibility? "Maan please tell me what's this? Why did you transfer your company on my name?" But his silence increased her disorderliness.

"Don't take much effort Geet to think about the reason. You know, I have my self-contained gain behind it?" Maan answered while unlocking the door.

"What gain?" she followed.

He pulled Geet in his arms and played with her free curls dangling on face. "You know Angel, your eyes are so beautiful that I can spend my entire day and night and years watching them, in fact for my whole life" he kissed on her nose.

"Don't try to change the topic. I know you're trying to hide the main matter but I'll not let you do this time Maan. You've to tell entire things"

"And why did you think there is something to hide, hm?" he touched her forehead from his.

"Maan!!! Are you going to tell me or I'll split this paper" she tried to grab the paper from his hold but Maan saved. "Okay sweetheart I tell you everything" He released her waist and cupped her face. While seeking in her eyes he continued,

"Geet as you knew this company position is not so good which I'd bought and so decided to shut all those branches which are located out from Mumbai but didn't know, it was the same place where your dad works. He mistook my plan I made to winnings against him, that I want to devastate him but Geet, my God knows I can't think to harm him even in my dream". He told the talk he had had with Jagan and also told the deal happened with his grandfather. Geet listened him carefully and with his every words, her heart had been becoming ardent more and more. "And therefore you wrote this company to me? So that Baba will not be feeling insecure?'' She asked but knowing this was the answer.

He nodded.

"Why didn't you tell me before Maan" Geet was overwhelmed that he did everything for her father and her family peace. "But this was your father's company Maan, there is only you who should have right to run it?"

"You're not separate. You're his family also and I know, he'll be happier to know my decision"

Geet hugged him when emotion took over charge of her heart. She was feeling submerged with his treat. It felt like the world keeps no more valued in life when Maan was there to rule her heart. "But what about Dadaji Maan, how will he react?" she looked him scaring. After hearing the truth she was fearing more of him, the big name. The person who can do a deal with his own grandson, could do anything. And she felt bad for Maan who had been tackling everything all alone, even she was not there to support. "And Maan I know nothing about this business thing, how would I manage the responsibility you gave?"

Maan smiled looking at her wrinkled forehead. Fear was visible on her face like a child fears before exam. "You look so cute" he said.

"Maan please I'm serious. I really don't know anything and I'm scared" she pushed her face into his chest tightening the hug.

"You don't need to scare Geet" he caressed her back and hairs. "I'll always be there with you. Grandpaa can do nothing. He had dealt that I'll not get any job in any company in India and I was forced to run my own family business. Well, now I can expect a job in your company. Can't I?" he bend head before her. Geet smiled. She nodded. "But you'll have to pass the interview first" She held him from neck and Maan slipped hand on her waist. She nuzzled nose into nose "And I will keep it sure that you get the job" she paused for a moment. "And Maan we will work hard together and one day our company will be the best one in this world and Baba and Chachu also can help us and you know we can start a new... "

"Stop Geet" He kept finger on her lips. "Don't you think you're forgetting me in your dream?" he tugged her closer. "When I'll have time for romance hm" he brushed lips on her cheeks. She blushed feeling tickling and new excitement was thrilling her senses. She literally had lost in dreams of future that forgot that present was not over yet. But she didn't want to remember it.

"Shall we leave?" Maan watched out from glass window. Sun had sat down and It was going darker and she should be at home up till now. But for his surprise she denied. "I don't want to go back" She released him and walked aimlessly like fallen leaves swirl in garden. She felt like flying in sky and let wind decide her path.

"What? But Geet you were the one who was restless to go home. Now what happened?"

"Now I don't want to be back. I liked this place. I loved silence here" she tried to open the window but it was jammed. She looked Maan with childlike hope. He came and unfasten the jam and pushed glass frames aside. Outside the sight was awesome. In full moonlight the trails of tall palm trees were creating a beautiful scenery for eyes to capture. "Maan it's so lovely. How did you find this place in Delhi?" she stared him in frisson. "I want to go out" she rushed toward the door before Maan could open mouth to answer and he followed her shouting her name.

"Geet stop"

He came and wrapped her Dupatta around her shoulder. "we'll get late"

She shook head in refusal. "I want to spend some time here"

"Okay I promise, we'll came back here tomorrow. Now please come and sit in car" he held her hand and dragged but she snatched hands from his hold and rushed in another direction. She hid behind a thick tree-trunk. Her giggle came cutting the silence of this dense forest and Maan became anxious not to find her. "Geet comeback Angel, I promise we'll be back tomorrow"

"No ways Maan and if you're much scared you can go back alone. I'm enjoying here and don't disturb me" Maan heard her voice, coming from the nearest tree and in next moment she had been pulled and then lifted in his arms.

"Leave me I don't want to go back. You can't take me forcefully" She shook her dangling legs and hit with hands. "And what would you tell your dad" he ignored her battle walking sternly toward the car. "If you don't leave me then I'll say you'd kidnapped. Now release me!!" her struggle increased. But Maan didn't listen her threat and threw inside car.
