I can only say thank you to my readers for supporting me so far & for so long. Thank you guys.😃
Chapter 25- Kuch Reshmi Hai, Kuch Khurdura...
Maan was frustrated with everything,everyone...with Geet...with himself. It wasn't supposed to be like this. She should have been unable to understand her work on the first day itself,which was natural for anyone,then he would have scolded her for this...she should have broken down into tears & he would have driven her out for her unprofessional behavior & her inability to adapt new things fast. It should have been like that...It should have been...
So that she couldn't torture him with her presence,so that her deep calm eyes won't tantalize him,mesmerize him ,so that he wouldn't be allured by her soft earthy,grassy,flowery after rain smell.
But here she was,solving everyone's work,doing every work in order,making it easy not for only him as she claimed,but for everyone...How was he supposed to even scream at her if she doesn't make even a single mistake?
(OPPS!!!! You did get it wrong😆 It's not like he is bringing them to make Geet's life hell. It's actually quite opposite of that.😆 If you don't remember, Maan was tensed about Geet when he remembered about those two menace in his company. But he relaxed when he remembered about geet's new changed attitude & was relieved to think that HIS GEET can now teach them a lesson WITHOUT his help...& all he has to do is to enjoy the show😆
Oh & by the way..before you read the newest update & misunderstand it,let me tell you Maan's doesn't know that what Nt & sasha are doing behind his back in the company. & he appointed them in higher post as they had the degree of it..Ab you can't give a secretary's post to an architect student . Hai na??😊
Whether they are DUMB in real life doesn't matter. But those employees give Maan the BEST in their field. So.. But why did you think that they are dumb at the first place? Look what is happening here is BOTH END MANIPULATION. Nt makes it look like Maan is giving her special preferences & to maan Nt makes it look like everything is fine. Aur kisiko agar bahar nikal na ho...to simply ruin his/her work . Maan will think the employee is worthless,thus firing him. But the employees will know that Maan fired the man/woman listening to Nt...see , BOTH END MANIPULATION.
& about being her own works BEKAR...ofcourse she makes others lower than her do it,or steals their ideas😛)
He looked at her through the blindfold. She was looking at her computer screen intently.
She looks tired. Maan thought. Then he shook her head,
Nahi!! Why the hell am i caring for her!
He looked at the watch ...
2 :30 pm.
Perfect!! He thought.
He called Geet via intercom.
Geet come in my Cabin.
Yes sir.
Geet came in with a pad & pen in her hand ready for any instruction.
Nice!!! If i had called any other secretary,they would have come empty handed. She came prepared to take instructions. Maan thought impressed with her attitude.
But instantly,he regretted.
He chided himself, Maan,ye tu kya kar raha hai?! Tujhe use yaha se bhagana hai,naki usse impress hona!
Ahem! Geet,what time is it? He asked her.
Geet looked puzzled but replied anyway.
It's 2:30 pm sir.
& our lunch break is at??
1 pm.
& do you know that our company serves the lunch to the employees?
Yes sir.
SO WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL THE CAFETERIA BY NOW TO COME WITH THE LUNCH BOXES? he forced himself to scream at her,though he didn't want to. It was his only thread from where he could start. If he couldn't fire her...he would make her quit.
Don't you know why we go through all the pain & expense of serving our employees ? It's because of the time & their health. & If you neglect such an important thing no matter how much work you do won't matter. Do you understand? He continued to scream as Geet stood there silently with her head downcast.
Maan looked at her & felt bad...really bad. But he needed to do this. He needed to get Geet out of here...
But he felt silent after a few moments. Well,he couldn't continue to scream like a mad man with out any reply,could he!!
But the moment he stopped,she rose her head & opened her mouth to speak...& speak she did...only to blow him up sweetly!
Sir,maybe you got something wrong. The employees were served lunch at sharp 1 pm.
Don't lie now.
I am not sir. If you want,you can ask anyone.
Huh!! Really! Then where is mine? Maan knew he was being childish,maybe after many years...but somewhere...he enjoyed it,bickering with only her like two little kids.
Sir,your lunch is...Geet looked at something behind him & started to come closer to him.
Geet?
She was still coming closer...to where he was standing.
G...gg Geet?
She was now on arms distance with him.
K..kk Kya kar rahi ho tum?
She leaned to him scaring the daylights out of him,but then suddenly changed direction to his right disappointing him a little.
Maan closed his eyes. Kya soch raha hai Maan !! Kii wo tujhe gale laga ke pyari payari batein karegi!!??
Maan opened his eyes to see Geet staring at him with a silver foiled box in her hand.
What ...what is this?
Your lunch sir. It was sent to your cabin at 1 pm. But maybe you didn't notice it. It's become cold. Would you eat it now sir? Should i heat it for you?
Maan closed his eyes in despair & shame. He could vaguely remember a peon keeping something at his desk,when he was really occupied...erm...with the window on his right hand side...Ahem... (samjha karo yaar!! Who,ahem!! I mean What was on his right side window😉)
Great Maan Sing Khurana!! Aur chilla bacchon ki tarha!! Now she is treating you like a kid! Kaha gayi teri professionalism!!! Now what she must be thinking about me!!
Why the hell am i thinking about what she might think about me!
He looked at her. No,it doesn't seem she is mocking me.
Oh! ok,you can go now.
As he continued to look at her go,without saying anything or without breaking a single tear...it made him feel...guilty, very guilty.
****
I am sorry.
Mujhe kuch kehna tha...I am sorry.
Mujhe maaf kar do...
Maine kaha I am Sorry. Tumne suna nahi?
Nahi nahi. Shit Maan!! Kya hai tu ek sorry bhi thik se nahi bol sakta!! Aise sorry bol raha hai ki lagta hai agar samne wala tujhe maaf na kare to tu use chodega nahi. Zabardasti hai kya!!
Lekin agar Geet mujhe sach mein maaf na kare?
Chal wo sab mat soch,practice kar sorry bolne ki...kehte hai na...practice makes it perfect!
His conversation with himself was halted with someone knocking on his door.
Yes?
Adi came in. Sir , Mr Mittal has arrived.
Oh meeting !! Ok i am coming.
****
Ofcourse,Geet had to tag along with him as his secretary. He rolled his eyes. Why this girl has to so perfect in everything? Now see the consequences!! He was stuck feeling guilty after unreasonably scolding her.
& that's the one thing Maan sing khurana didn't do...to accuse someone without any fault.
Why the hell she has to be so perfect!! Perfect work,perfect manner,perfect behavior,perfect hair,perfect eyes,perfect...
Maan concentrate,concentrate. Waise bhi,even if you spent eternity thinking about her,she will never return your feelings....he thought gloomily.
He tried to concentrate on the meeting which was very important for his company.
He welcomed Mr Mittal & signaled to start the meeting.
So ,Gentlemen,you have the project details before you. It's been made keeping your requirements in mind. Please take a look & tell us if you are satisfied with this.
He looked at Mr Mittal,but saw that his gaze was at else where. Following his gaze,he saw him looking at her,at HIS GEET,who was busy writing down some notes.
He felt his blood boil. But he tried to remain calm. Because there wasn't enough proof to prove that he was looking at her with dirty gaze.
He clenched his fist.
So Mr Mittal. Tell us what you think.
Umm,well ,the designs are nice,but I need to think some more. After all it is a BIG INVESTMENT. Mr. Mittal,for some odd reason put pressure on the last two words.
Anyway, today is my birthday & I kept a small dinner for that...I would like all of you to come. Wahi baat kar lete hai. He said with a smile.
Lekin..
Please do come. Or i will feel bad. Since my family is now not India due to work reasons,I am feeling a little lonely. So i am inviting my friends & some of business colleagues. If everyone refuses me,it will be a problem,don't you think.
Sir will come. Geet replied startling Maan.
Oh! I am not just talking about Mr Maan. I am talking about EVERYONE present here. Please do come.
*****
Agar kuch nahi pata too bolti kyun ho? He grinded through his teeth.
Who said that i am free enough to give someone company so that they don't feel LONELY?
Sir,I know your schedule & it's free after 6 today & this is a very important deal & by the looks of it ,he will agree to this deal if you all attend the party.
YEAH!! YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT HIM!!! HOW THE HELL CAN YOUU KNOW ALL ABOUT HIM WHEN YOU WERE SINKING YOUR NOSE IN THAT LITTLE NOTEPAD OF YOURS THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE MEETING!! HOW CAN YOU KNOW ABOUT THE DIRTY LOOKS HE WAS GIVING YOU!! YOU IDIOT!!! ...
That is what he wanted to scream to her...
But instead he shook her roughly holding both arms . PROFIT KE ILAWA LUCH SOCHTII BHI HO TUM YA NAHI!!! YOU DISGUST ME!!!
There is ...another reason ,sir...It's cause...I know what it feels like without family ...i know what loneliness is... she whispered averting his eye,almost chocking .
He closed his eyes in shame
Yes he knew that...among the many unknown things about her..he knew about the loneliness of hers...he knew how she felt in this case...
He sighed. Ok . We will go there & come back soon. Now go back to work.He said to her softly regretting every word he said to her just now.
As geet went out of the room,he caught a glimpse of her teary eyes...He should be happy right? That he was successful in making her sad,& hopefully making her rethink about this job?...
He slumped on his couch...
Oh man!! Ek baar sorry nahi bol paya,aur dusri sorry ki taiyari kar li!!!
Precap- Dinner at Mittals🤢
Any similarities in scene not intended (If it's from the serial itself,then it's intended😛. After all it has awesome moments😆). Anyway,sorry for late update. I tried to update,but the network had some problems.😕
